14 Bogardus Place, 4-X

This amazingly designed studio in Washington Heights is the perfect starter home or pied a terre. Oversized, energy-efficient, south-facing windows allow for sun and air to fill the space and provide views of the co-op's beautifully landscaped courtyard gardens and peeks of Fort Tryon Park, making this a quiet, peaceful place to call home.

The living space is generously proportioned with plenty of room for at least a queen-size bed, sitting area and room for dining. The creatively customized kitchen is amazing and has everything you need in one efficiently designed package. A built-in refrigerator and separate freezer are surrounded by plenty of drawers for storage. A 4-burner gas cooktop, a convection/microwave oven combo and even more storage above are offset by a sleek black tile backsplash and the most amazing resin countertop, all of which is well lit by dimmable recessed lighting. This kitchen is truly a work of art. The dressing room/walk-in closet/office area is spacious, equipped with an Effa organizational system, and can be used flexibly depending on your needs. The windowed bath has been well maintained. Creative touches abound throughout including the front door and radiator cover having been stripped to their original metal finish.

This really is a very cool apartment in a lovely, well-managed co-op with a live-in super, laundry room, gym, parking garage with discounted parking for shareholders and plenty of outdoor garden space where you can enjoy peacefully sitting in the sun, bbq'ing and dining al fresco under the pergola. All of this in a dynamic neighborhood close to transportation (the A and 1 trains are just steps away), quick access to the GWB, Henry Hudson Parkway and the FDR, restaurants, markets, bars and some of the city's most beautiful parks. Low carrying costs mean you can own for less than the cost of renting. Email or call me today to make an appointment to come see this very special apartment, one I'm sure you'd be proud to call home.
