261 West 71st Street, Unit 1, Upper West Side, Manhattan, NY 10023
Description
The lower level features a newly renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, which opens to the large living room with a working fireplace and an exposed beam ceiling. There is a passthrough (which could be opened up completely) to the unique and charming solarium. The solarium is a versatile space with a glass ceiling allowing you to view the sky from inside whether you are enjoying a meal or relaxing on your sofa. There is even a half bathroom on this floor for when you are entertaining guests.
The truly special aspect of this apartment is the large landscaped private yard. It is a rare treat to have such a beautiful outdoor space in a location as central as this.
261 West 71st Street has free laundry in the building. It is located in the heart of the upper west side near the 1,2,3 trains and Riverside Park. Trader Joe's, Zabar's, and Fairway are all conveniently nearby.
