Description

Great Value for this HUGE one bedroom CONDO at the luxurious The Columbia Condominium in the heart of the Upper West Side. With three extra large closets, a built in home office and white cabinetry along a wall of the living room this fantastic space offers incredible storage. Large windows offer bright open views of neighboring gardens. The pass through kitchen and the spacious bathroom offer an opportunity for the buyer to envision an update that is unique and inviting for their own tastes. The parquet floors are in excellent condition throughout. The grand twenty four foot+ living room has plenty of room for dining table, sofa and entertainment center. The spacious Master Bedroom easily affords a King Sized bedroom set and features a large closet. Offered at $1162 per square foot this is an incredible deal! Hurry to see this great second home, investment property, or primary residence - it won't last! Please note some photos of the apartment are virtually staged. Actual photos of the apartment are also listed. Built in 1983 by the pioneering William Zeckendorf Jr, the thirty-two story tower, The Columbia is a full service luxury condominium which anchors the vibrant Upper West Side's 96th Street corridor. The building's newly renovated lobby and mailroom are a modern and stylish addition to its wonderful amenities. They include 24 hour doorman, Olympic sized swimming pool with sauna and steam rooms, half court basketball court, squash/racquetball, state of the art fitness center, as well as roof deck, community room and kitchen for reserved parties, children's playroom, laundry room and a garage. And don't forget to bring your pup - as dogs are allowed. With Riverside Park just two blocks West, as well as two dog runs (West 87th Street and West 105th) there are ample opportunities to exercise with Fido or Fifi after endless virtual Zoom calls! West 96th Street offers a supremely convenient location; across the street from the 1/2/3 trains, nearby B/C trains, as well as crosstown buses. Options for groceries and dining out abound with Whole Foods and Trader Joe's as well as Absolute Bagels, West Side Market and HMart on West 100's; for dining out and nightlife there's such an eclectic collection of eateries - Bodrum, Manhattan Diner, Pio Pio, Telio, Dive Bar, Effy's Cafe, Plant Shed Cafe, Blue Marble Ice Cream, Krispy Kreme(!), Opai Thai, Trattoria Il Gusto Wine Bar, Cafe du Soleil, Carmine's, Serafina and The Mermaid Inn Uptown. Riverside Park offers such wonderful opportunities for fresh air and exercise - tennis courts on West 96th Street, landscaped walks along the Hudson River. And just three blocks East is Central Park with huge playgrounds and landscaped fields. With major development of the area on the horizon, now is the time to check out this great value!
