This Hidden Treasure is a truly unique opportunity to own a majestic top-floor 3-Bed/1.5-Bathroom in The Grinnell, on the market for the first-time in 45 years. The library wall was removed to create a “great room” over 23-foot long with decorative fireplace. Imagine yourself in true pre-war splendor perched over the Audubon Park Historic District of Manhattan.
Panoramic views through expansive oversized windows shine northwest to the GW Bridge and beyond. The windowed kitchen has the original 1910 glass-fronted cabinetry and there's a butler’s pantry hall leading to the wainscoted formal dining room.
Original classic details include hardwood floors, French doors, crown moldings, deep baseboards, capacious closets, leaded glass transoms, and 10-foot ceilings. Only 1 flight up to a splendid roof deck with 360 views of the cityscape and Hudson.
Homes in The Grinnell are of dramatic scale and masterful design by architects Schwartz & Gross, who gave their creation a Mediterranean-style facade with a porte-cochere entryway to an interior courtyard.
Building amenities include attended 18-hour entry, resident superintendent, bicycle room (free), gym (extra), storage units (extra), pets welcome. Solar panels provide ConEdison electric discount.
