Spacious, Renovated Prewar Two-Bedroom with Timeless Charm
Apartment 4C is a beautifully renovated, oversized prewar two-bedroom that rarely comes to market in this condition. With generous proportions and thoughtfully designed interiors, this home offers ample room for a formal dining area, a grand piano in the foyer, a dedicated home office, and excellent storage throughout.
The windowed kitchen was fully updated with an interior designer's eye. It features new stainless steel appliances, abundant counter space, and a five-burner range ideally positioned by the window. Custom cabinetry is complemented by two rows of floating shelves and a unique touch-four glass shelves in the kitchen window, perfect for growing herbs or displaying houseplants.
The sunken living room is a showstopper. With nearly 20 feet of depth, it offers a sense of scale rarely found in newer developments. Original Art Deco details like arched entryways and parquet floors have been elevated with upgraded moldings, custom built-ins, and modern lighting. Double-paned windows bring in terrific natural light, while the layout creates cozy, distinct areas throughout the home.
The windowed bathroom features classic black-and-white subway tile, a refinished porcelain tub, new lighting, and custom shelving. Both bedrooms are well-proportioned and offer good closet space. The secondary bedroom comfortably fits a full bedroom set-or even a growing teenager. The king-sized primary suite includes double closets, room for bedside tables, a home office setup, and even a Peloton. Overhead lighting was added throughout the apartment as part of the comprehensive renovation.
Located in a well-managed, pet-friendly cooperative with strong financials, 210 West 103rd Street is a meticulously maintained elevator building with a live-in super. This historic address also happens to sit on the former site of Norman Rockwell's birthplace-adding a touch of Americana to your new home.
Quick Profile
Many New Yorkers have walked through this small neighborhood countless times but may be unfamiliar with its name, which is often folded into the vastness of the Upper West Side. An ameatuer might even confuse the neighborhood with Harlem, Morningside Heights, or make up a new geographically descriptive name like, Upper Upper Westside. Manhattan Valley is bounded by 110th Street to the north, 96th Street to the south, Central Park West to the east and Broadway to the west.
Manhattan Valley is a diverse, mostly residential neighborhood that is rich in history. The north side of the neighborhood has no shortage of historic row houses and distinctive buildings designed in a Romanesque, Victorian Gothic and Queen Ann style of architecture. If you’re a fan of architecture this may be an ideal place to visit. Contrasting the neighborhood's classical architecture in the north are the modern buildings of Columbus Square on the south side.
