This high first floor home embraces a classic layout with Post Victorian pre-war details and assures complete privacy. This home contains extraordinary near 12ft ceilings, French doors, elaborate moldings, hardwood floors and a decorative fireplace. Every room contains tall French windows which allow for sunlight to radiate throughout this classic prewar home. These elaborate tall windows and doors are trimmed with elegant moldings. All of this is enhanced by extensive custom built-in bookshelves for display and storage. This wonderful home is located in a distinguished Upper West Side building designed by Gaetano Ajello for the Paterno Brothers.

The adjacent Living and Dining rooms face north to allow for sunlight to shine through and create a warm inviting living space (the Dining room can easily serve as a second bedroom). The renovated windowed Kitchen is well appointed with tall wooden cabinets and updated appliances. There is generous Master Bedroom with a West facing window; the Bathroom also contains a West facing window as well as a magnificent tub.

This iconic neighborhood building has a live-in superintendent and door attendant. One of the most admired buildings in the area, its apartments, architectural details, and wide & tall French windows are outstanding examples of the best of this design period. The building is located on one of the area's most desirable blocks with an extraordinarily accomplished block association (see www.bloomingdale.org). This is a wonderful offering in the Upper West Side's most dynamic neighborhood featuring an exciting and broad-based renaissance of Riverside Park, along with numerous new luxury developments, cafes & restaurants, shopping, and entertainment.
