130 West 86th Street, 5-A

5A is a gorgeous classic-six apartment in an intimate and well-maintained prewar coop.  Enter the apartment into a welcoming foyer with coat closet, which leads to a spacious living room with custom built-in bookcases.  The living room (and the 2 main bedrooms) face North onto 86th Street with beautiful light, and a view of classic UWS historic townhouses across the street.  Also off of the foyer is an elegant formal dining room, with enough space to comfortably seat 12.

The wraparound windowed kitchen has impressive storage and pantry space, a wine fridge, marble countertops, and a gorgeous vented  Thermador range. Off of the kitchen, find an extra room with a large window that would make an ideal work-from-home office, den, or even a cozy 3rd bedroom,, with a beautifully renovated-suite bathroom with shower. 

Down the hallway, which has two spacious closets, you will find the beautifully proportioned master bedroom that has an en-suite bath that was recently meticulously renovated with luxury fixtures and dual sinks.  The second bedroom is also generously sized with 2 closets, and a nearby hallway bathroom with classic basket-weave mosaic marble floor tile and custom glass barn sliding door on the bathtub.

There are 13 windows throughout the apartment with hardwood floors, and 9-foot ceilings. There are delightful prewar details throughout the apartment like picture moldings, a decorative in-wall kitchen icebox, subway tiles, and other prewar historical details.

Washer/dryers are allowed in the building and there is a logical spot to install one in the 3rd bath off of the office, with Board approval.  

Built in 1925, 130 West 86th Street is pet-friendly building with an attentive staff, a caring Board, part-time doorman and live-in super.  It also has a marble-lined lobby with coffered ceilings.
