Description

BEST CONDO DEAL IN WASHINGTON HEIGHTS This prewar one bedroom is done right. Restored and renovated to perfection without compromising the authenticity of the era, here modern upgrades and old-world charm live in harmony. The result is a warm embrace from the moment you step inside. At the heart of the home is an inviting eat-in kitchen, thoughtfully designed with white cabinetry, subway tile back splash, white corian counters, stainless appliances and open shelving. Even the original dumb waiter has been converted to additional storage. Morning tea is a delight in this welcoming space with nothing but treetops and blue sky beyond. The living room, adorned with wall sconces and a French door, is nearly 13 ft wide with beautiful south and north exposures inviting lovely cross breeze and light all day. Indulge in a relaxing bath after a long day in your deep cast iron soaking tub surrounded by top-of-the-line tiles and workmanship. Afterwards, retire to your king-sized bedroom with space enough for seating area and desk where you are sure to have a restful night's sleep with the addition of ceiling sound buffering. Other details of note include fully skim-coated walls, original metal door frames that have been stripped prior to painting for a clean look, new moldings, picture rails, 4 closets, updated electric, hardwood floors, new lighting, vintage hardware on all doors and sound-mitigation in the bedroom ceiling AND floor. All this plus an additional STORAGE UNIT is available for purchase. Built circa 1926, The Crillon Court Condominium stands in the heart of the beautiful Audubon Park Historic District. Residents here enjoy a doorman, package room, on-site parking garage with direct access from the lobby, live-in superintendent, porter, bike racks, private storage, and a central laundry room. This neighborhood is rich in history and thriving in progress. You'll enjoy cafes and restaurants as well as mainstay local eateries along Broadway. Conveniently located between Columbia University and NY Presbyterian Hospital with easy access to the '1', 'A,' and 'C' trains, M4, M5 and Bx 6 buses and just moments from beautiful Riverside Park, Riverbank State Park and Fort Washington Park. Discover why this pocket of Manhattan is quickly becoming THE destination neighborhood for savvy New Yorkers seeking space, beauty and pure value. This is a remarkable opportunity for the first-time home buyer and investor alike.
