Description

This magnificent two-bedroom, one-bath apartment has been extensively renovated, yet retains its classic prewar elegance. The apartment’s front door leads you to a foyer and central hall. From the foyer, French doors open to the generously sized living room with a wood burning fireplace. The living room was enlarged by narrowing the adjacent formal dining room, which remains large enough to seat ten comfortably.

The apartment’s front door leads you to a foyer and central hall. From the foyer, French doors open to the generously sized living room with a wood burning fireplace. The living room was enlarged by narrowing the adjacent formal dining room, which remains large enough to seat ten comfortably. The dining room, with two exposures, offers direct access to a spacious, thoughtfully renovated kitchen lit by two huge windows. There are custom painted-wood cabinets, soapstone countertops, a big pantry, original wood floors and a sleek refrigerator at countertop depth. The central hall leads you to the two bedrooms and a beautifully renovated bathroom, with storage under and above the sink as well as above the toilet. The huge cast iron tub was recently refinished and re-caulked. Both bedrooms face the lush interior garden where it is both quiet and green. New construction does not compare to the standards upheld during the 1920s. The apartment has 9’ ceilings, plaster walls, moldings and oak floors (parquet in the foyer, living room and dining room). And with just two apartments per floor, this unit is both private and quiet. Located on the second floor, the apartment has three exposures, facing both 81st Street (east) and the lavish interior garden (west), providing light all day long. The near block-long Chateau garden was completely restored in 2023 at a cost of $700,000. This building is pet friendly (cat or dog up to 25 pounds), however, subletting and smoking are not allowed. The basement houses the janitor, along with two new washer-dryer pairs. This well-maintained cooperative requires 30% down.
