Property Description for 155 West 71st Street, 4-D
This hard to find two bedroom prewar condominium is resplendent with a bright southern exposure. Built in 1940 and in keeping with the Gatsby House charm, there are wonderful art deco touches throughout the apartment, including a spacious entrance foyer, archway entrances to both the living room and the bedroom hall, a signature step-down living room, and a lovely period decorative fireplace. The spacious floor plan affords both a gracious master bedroom and exceptional closet space. The eat-in kitchen has been completely renovated with new cabinets, all new appliances including an Elba stove, a full-size dishwasher and new counter tops.
The Gatsby House is located just moments from the 2/3 express train at the 72nd Street stop, yet preserved from the crowds on a remarkably quiet side street. Just out your living room and bedroom windows, above the tops of gingko trees, is the Blessed Sacrament Church, with its elaborate and ornate facade. You will also have the ultimate convenience of being near excellent restaurants and shops including Trader Joe's market, and of course Central Park is close at hand. The Gatsby House has a live-in superintendent and a wonderful south-facing roof deck for residents to enjoy. Pets and pied-a-terre usage are welcome. The building is extremely well run and the monthly carrying costs are some of the lowest in the entire neighborhood!
