The home was lovingly renovated and designed by its current owners, features an updated kitchen with a dishwasher, an ensuite full bathroom, and a second full bath, original hardwood floors, architectural arches, 5 amazing closets, recessed lights, and designer light fixtures.
From the moment you walk through the buildings art deco, marble-clad lobby, you can feel the difference in the craftsmanship and scale of a well-constructed building of the 1940's. The generous sizing and solid materials continue as you enter the apartment's expansive foyer flanked by two closets, a room which can serve as a dining room, home office, or chic entryway. The nearly 21' expansive living area is large enough to accommodate a TV area, as well as an office space or dining area. Sunlight floods in through two west-facing windows at the far end, with trees of all shades dappling the light, creating the perfect opportunity for bird watching. Adjacent is the extra-large eat-in kitchen, which will please any home chef with its suite of Bosch stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, microwave, and full-sized fridge, bespoke cabinetry, crisp subway tile, butcherblock countertops, new flooring, recessed lighting, and west-facing windows for ample light. Down the spacious hallway are the two bedrooms and bathrooms, as well as a bonus linen closet. The massive primary bedroom can also do double duty by housing an office space, exercise area, or reading nook while gazing out the double exposure South and West facing windows. An en-suite, newly refinished bathroom completes the perfect bedroom. A bright, large second bathroom with a tub separates the two bedrooms. The second bedroom features a large closet and two windows with double exposure from both the south and the east for beautiful morning light over the building's planted communal flower garden.
