HIGH FLOOR ONE BEDROOM/CONVERTIBLE JR 4 This sprawling home has it all: blue sky and pretty leafy views from every room, impressive proportion and flow, stunning light from the south and west, amazing closets, an eat-in kitchen PLUS a proper dining area. Rarely is this amount of space available at this price. And the bonus is that you can seamlessly convert to a JR 4 by modifying the kitchen’s dining area to a small bedroom! The kitchen has been nicely renovated with granite counters, pretty basket-weave design marble back splash and stainless appliances, including a dishwasher. Currently there is a charming, windowed breakfast area or home office which could easily become a bonus room if needs change. Spirited dinner parties and movie nights alike are a pleasure in this spacious living room with a separate, large dining area while the serene bedroom floods with light from the south-facing corner window and easily accommodates a king bed, sitting area and more. Even the bathroom is especially large and fully renovated with a deep Kohler cast-iron soaking tub, Riobel shower system, custom glass doors, wall subway tile, Toto toilet and polished Bianco Cararra marble floor. Throughout this Deco beauty are restored hardwood floors, tremendous closets, including a walk-in, high ceilings, skim-coated walls and 9 windows ushering in beautiful light and cross breeze. Quietly situated in a well-established Art Deco Co-op (aka 30 Overlook Terrace) with resident Super, laundry, bike and private storage and a lovely private garden plus outdoor play area for residents to enjoy. Sorry, no dogs at this time, but cats are welcome! The building’s lobby has recently been refreshed and renovated. Nearby you’ll find stunning Fort Tryon Park, the Cloisters, easy access to tennis courts and bicycling trails along the Hudson River and the Little Red Lighthouse plus the most breathtaking vistas on the island. Enjoy new cafes, restaurants and charming spots to market or pamper yourself with a facial or Pilates class. A few blocks south, the newly renovated GWB Bus Station has opened with over 100,000 sf of retail shops, such as Marshalls, Fine Fare Supermarket, Gap outlet and Blink Fitness. Just around the corner is the A express which gets you to midtown in just 20 minutes. Also conveniently located near the 1 train, the M4/M5/M98 bus lines. Discover this thriving pocket of Manhattan and you’ll see why it has become a destination for so many savvy New Yorkers seeking real quality of life without compromise.
