Description

Welcome to apartment W21D at The Gotham Condominium, a 925 square foot 1 bedroom 1 bath exquisitely renovated home with a south facing 600+ square foot terrace. This is a unique floor plan in the building, and it is a rare opportunity for a discriminating buyer who wants a beautiful up-to-date condo in a fabulous location. Just bring your toothbrush!

As you enter the apartment, you will notice the beautiful hardwood floors. A half bath and a coat closet are there just off the entry. Floor to ceiling windows and 9" ceilings highlight the length of the apartment. Continue to the open living room and kitchen. The renovated kitchen has amazing storage and high-end appliances. It is really quite breathtaking. Your view south to downtown is open and the terrace is just large enough to really use and enjoy. The bedroom has plenty of room for a king bed and any other furniture to make this a comfy hideaway, and there is access to the terrace. Actually, there are 3 access doors out to the terrace-great for entertaining! The primary bathroom is totally renovated in snow white with a walk-in shower. And the walk in closet is more than you could ever imagine in a 1 bedroom apartment. This really is the perfect place to call home.

The Gotham Condominium is a popular, luxury white-glove residential building with a full-time doorman and concierge conveniently located between Lexington and Third Avenue in the heart of the Upper Eastside. Well known for its extensive amenities, residents enjoy a full health club, newly renovated 80" heated salt-water swimming pool with adjacent sauna, playroom, party/meeting room with catering kitchen, lovely outdoor common planted garden/terrace with separate adult and kid's activity areas and common laundry room on every floor. Travel easily on the Express 4,5,6 Express subway line, the Q train and the Crosstown bus which are all 1 block away. Whole Foods is across the street and Fairway is one block away. The area is a mecca for fine dining and great shopping and is midway between Central Park and Carl Schurz Park. You simply cannot find a more elegant, spacious one bedroom with a large terrace in such a convenient location. We would be very happy to arrange a personal visit to you..
