VIBRANT TREE-LINE & CITY VIEWS - COVETED LINE IN PRIZED, FULL SERVICE DESOTO (w/Roof Garden, Playroom, & Electric/Cable/Wifi submetered.)


1916 SOUL + 2024 SENSIBILITY = 4-EVER TIMELESS BEAUTY


Handsome, bright, and gorgeous, this upgraded, classic residence is a sizable stand-out. High ceilings soar above you, underfoot are beautiful hardwood floors, and everywhere there is light and beauty. With original moldings, custom built-ins, and a smart, timeless layout that comfortably accommodates today's expansive life, this home hits all the right notes.


Enter the lovely foyer, with its dual closets and welcoming scale. Up the gracious hall, and at treetop level -- with dynamic, bright, sky/city views -- the comfortable living room offers custom bookcases and over-scaled, sun-filled windows offering a dynamic and leafy architectural outlook. Ideally situated just across the hall from the living room is the dining room -- a big and upgraded space that offers flexibility and practicality to this resplendent residence. Here, you have a place to gather and entertain, but you also have a bonus area from which to quietly work from home. (Two custom tuck-away workspaces are there when needed.) Perfectly positioned by the dining room, the well-appointed kitchen is both practical and pretty. With marble-topped counters, custom cabinetry, integrated wine storage, attractive hardware, and stainless appliances (including a Bosch 300 dishwasher and an LG Smart All-In-One washer/dryer combo unit), the kitchen is both elegant and efficient.


Quite separate from the living spaces, are the two peaceful, bright bedrooms. The primary bedroom enjoys excellent light and more of this vibrant home's signature tree-line and city views. With dual oversized and custom outfitted closets and room for a sitting space, the primary bedroom is a sweet retreat, The well-scaled guest bedroom offers a bright exposure onto a treetop and good closet space -- a perfect bedroom for all of life's growing needs. Served by a wonderful, windowed, marble bath with restored original cast-iron soaking tub and terrific classic tilework, the bedroom "wing" is wonderful in every way.


Equidistant from both Central and Riverside Parks, with playgrounds and greenspaces galore, life here is both easy and fun. In its prized, prime location, most every area cultural, dining, shopping, entertainment and fitness destination (Equinox across the street) is nearby — not to mention a plethora of easy express and local transportation options. Sweetly positioned in its treasured DeSoto address, this winsome home enjoys all the benefits of its famous 1916 building: Greeting you every day are a friendly, full time staff (in a grand, restored, marble lobby), helpful resident manager, a delightful playroom, a stunningly landscaped roof deck, and bike/laundry/storage rooms. Pet and pied-a-terre (case-by-case) friendly, the delightful DeSoto includes all electric, cable, and wifi charges within the monthly maintenance.


Rare is the residence that bridges classic beauty with all the comforts of today — creating a heartwarming home that resonates with timeless beauty and comfort. This is that home.


(NOTE: Some in this line add a half bathroom in the kitchen, or potentially split the full bath into two smaller full baths. All must be approved by the board.)


(Flip Tax: 2.5% split between buyer and seller)


NOTE: There is an additional $44 monthly charge for premium cable and high-speed internet. Additionally, unlike the vast majority of Manhattan co-ops, shareholders at the DeSoto are given the co-op/condo primary residence tax abatement each year (as opposed to the co-op keeping the benefit for its reserves). This amounts to a substantial annual benefit for the shareholders themselves. In 2023, Residence 31 was abated $3453, thereby reducing the average monthly maintenance by $288. The net maintenance number after this abatement is reflected in the listing.
