Meticulously renovated, with custom built-ins, and hand-painted Venetian plaster, all with the luxuries of an exceptional home.

This studio is in excellent renovated condition. It is stylish and functional, with combined living, island counter dining, and a remote work area. Apartment 81C also offers a bonus storage closet, located outside the apartment, a rare offering in this building.

Built in 1926 by renowned architect Emery Roth, the Bancroft is a full-service pre-war cooperative building in superb physical and financial condition. Located just half a block from Central Park, gourmet and boutique shopping, restaurants, and other neighborhood favorites, such as Trader Joe's, Fairway, and Citarella.

The Bancroft boasts a beautiful historic lobby and passage hallways. It offers amenities such as a 24-hour doorman, central laundry facility, live-in superintendent, additional private storage for rent (with a wait list), a bike room (with a wait list), and a package room.

The Bancroft is conveniently located to public transportation, including local and express trains 1/2/3 and the B and C trains, as well as the M72 crosstown buses, and various uptown/downtown buses.
