Feast your eyes on an incredible, rare, designer-owned gut-renovation just completed at the renowned Ansonia Condominium. Be the first to live in this one-of-a-kind 1 Bedroom corner residence teeming with top quality finishes, fixtures, and in-unit washer/dryer.

Featuring 9.5 foot ceilings and refinished floors throughout, the original plasterwork, moldings, French windows, and doors have been masterfully-restored. From the oversized front door, a corner living room offers eastern & southern exposures and abundant natural light from three massive windows. There are also three hidden closets, one of which is a walk-in. On the other side of the apartment a brand new kitchen awaits, packed to the brim with timeless, high end finishes, ample storage, and a comprehensive Bosch appliance suite. Nestled between these two rooms is a perfectly-proportioned bedroom and oversized windowed bathroom featuring a walk in shower, linen storage, and an LG washer/dryer. No detail was spared during this renovation, creating the ultimate 1 bedroom home, pied-a-terre, or investment property perched high above Broadway on one of the most coveted stretches of the West 70s.

The Ansonia stands out as one of The Upper West Side's premier prewar condominium buildings. Steeped in history, having been home to many celebrated residents including Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, Gustav Mahler, Arturo Toscanini, Sergei Rachmaninoff, and Igor Stravinsky. Known for its over-the-top amenities, the hotel originally housed a farm on the roof delivering fresh eggs and milk to tenants. The building was later known as the home of the Continental Baths where Bette Midler and Barry Manilow performed early in their careers. It was added to the National Register of Historic places in 1980 and was converted to a condominium in 1992. The exquisite Beaux-Arts facade, ultra-wide hallways, and opulent grand staircase make it one of the most beautiful, recognizable, and unique buildings in New York.
