NEW TO MARKET … ENORMOUS ONE-OF-A-KIND EXTENSION ONE-BEDROOM with an IN-UNIT WASHER & DRYER and LOADS OF PREWAR CHARM located in the heart of the UWS. This apartment is quiet & peaceful as it faces south, away from 72nd St. With a smart, well-designed layout of well over 900 Sq.Ft., this rarely available gem is in a league of its own among one-bedrooms available at this price point in this prime W.70s location. • Entry foyer opens onto a nearly 500 Sq.Ft. living room that can easily accommodate living, dining & home office areas with room to spare. Featuring soaring 11’ ceilings, a huge south-facing bay window, warm oak-strip flooring, and a stunning variety of charming restored original mahogany woodwork, including a hand-carved fireplace mantel, built-in bookshelves, pilasters, window casings and dentil & other moldings, this massive, open & airy ~23’ x 22’ expanse, once the grand library of a sprawling 5-story mansion, was made for entertaining. • French doors open onto a beautifully renovated kitchen with ample cherrywood cabinets, granite countertops, a stone backsplash, and stainless steel appliances. • A hallway off the living room provides access to a renovated windowed bathroom, followed by a sunny, king-size, south & east-facing corner bedroom. The bedroom’s location away from the living room at the far end of the extension (a separate wing) provides complete privacy. • Enjoy the ultimate convenience of a brand-new Bosch washer & dryer set installed between the bedroom and bathroom. • With seven (7) extra-deep closets, huge overhead cabinets, a large concealed storage cabinet & built-in bookshelves, the storage space in this one-bedroom rivals that of most three-bedrooms. Vibrant & super convenient location less than a block to the 1 Local and the 2 & 3 Express trains, two blocks east to Central Park and the B and C trains, two blocks west to Riverside Park & the Hudson River waterfront, and just around the corner from Trader Joe’s, Fairway & countless options for shopping, dining & nightlife.
