Property Description for 155 West 68th Street, 2034

OWNERS JUST RENOVATED Unit 2034 at the esteemed Dorchester during Covid! For starters, this south facing, light filled 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom, which just had all 7 windows replaced to let the light and city skyline views stream in. Though the apartment was originally a Junior 4, it was converted to a proper, 2 bedroom by the prior tenants, and the owners decided that the break in the market was the perfect time to renovate the apartment this winter and have it ready for the spring market!

As a recap, this Jan/Feb the whole apartment was skim coated and painted a crisp white from baseboards to ceiling. The original, parquet flooring was replaced and all baseboard were replaced as well. The bathroom was completed gutted and brand new tile was laid, and the fixtures and finishes have all been replaced and updated as well. The kitchen had all new appliances installed as well. The new purchaser(s) just has to decide if they'd like to open the kitchen up to create an open concept or keep it as is and resurface or replace the cabinets. New developers don't create this kind of amazing closet space anymore either, so be prepared to be super impressed by the more than ample closet space in this condo, which has also been skim coated and painted.

If you saw the apartment in 2020 or even before that, be sure to come aback and see this sparkling, new version of 2034! It must be seen to be believed.

Lincoln Square | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Centered, in name and location, around the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Lincoln Square’s history is heavily steeped in strong African American and Afro-Caribbean roots. Iconic jazz pianist, Thelonious Monk, is counted among its many former artistic and professional denizens.

The neighborhood is beloved for its amazing shopping, its distinguished art scene, and phenomenal restaurants--and don’t forget Central Park. From Lincoln Square, one is at the gateway to virtually everything New York City has to offer, either in your backyard or via excellent subway access.

With its beautiful pre-war architecture surrounded by some of NYC’s premier skyscrapers, Lincoln Square has become a safe, much sought after neighborhood. If you like living in the action, there are few places in the world that can rival Lincoln Square.
