Description

Large rooms, a windowed kitchen and bath, southern exposure and a well-designed floor plan distinguish #5C, a renovated 1-bedroom condo at 155 W 71st St., just east of Broadway. Thats not all: as this is a condo and subletting is permitted. Co-purchasing and guarantors are permitted. Built in 1940, this home in the Gatsby House has wonderful elements of the late art deco era in architecture, including a large entry foyer, a classic step-down living room, original hardwood floors and high ceilings. The renovated, windowed kitchen has a large pass-through that opens the already light and spacious rooms and includes a breakfast bar, which is also great for entertaining. Staying true to the original aesthetic, the windowed bathroom has been renovated with the classic subway tiles and black and white tile floors. The corner bedroom has 3 windows allowing wonderful light and abundant storage thanks to a sizeable walk-in closet. Located on a quiet, quintessential Upper West Side block, The Gatsby House is a pet-friendly, elevator building with outdoor space, live-in superintendent, laundry room, and bike room. It is near transportation including the 1, 2, and 3 subway lines, enviable shopping and dining options, nightlife, parks, museums and entertainment that have made the Upper West Side so desirable and so livable. Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Lincoln Center, the Beacon Theater, the American Museum of Natural History and Central and Riverside Parks are in your backyard. There is currently an assessment of $178.32 through July 2020.
