PRIVATE PATIO PLUS GARDEN!
INVEST IN YOUR FUTURE
GRAND UWS 1 BED
HIGH CEILINGS, PETS OKAY!

Have you ever dreamed of owning your own piece of Central Park? This is your rare opportunity to own a highly coveted PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE! YOUR 30' x 25' GARDEN IS YOUR DREAM COME TRUE!! This home combines the best of Country Living with all the benefits of this marvelous City. Think red roses, colorful hydrangea or even vegetables! You can even grow fresh herbs in your kitchen garden. With eastern and western exposures you are guaranteed to enjoy direct sunlight all day long interrupted only by the shade from your Japanese Maple and Honey Locust trees. You and your friends will love your personal oasis through all four seasons...sunbathing on your chaise lounge in the summer or building snowmen in the winter. Plant bulbs in the late fall and marvel at the cornucopia of colors when they bloom in early spring. Love grilling? Get ready to host next year's Fourth of July barbeque. You will be entertaining friends and loved ones all year long!

But wait there's more!

You will be delighted by all the possibilities the interior of your spacious one bedroom residence has to offer. The bones are here and all this fine home needs is your excellent taste. Pass through the threshold onto the classic terra cotta tiles of your grand entrance foyer large enough for a dining room table.

Everyone knows the kitchen is the "heart of the home" and you are guaranteed to absolutely love this generous space where you will be able to design the ultimate Chef's kitchen!!

Continue on towards your commodious sunken living room and bedroom complete with meticulously maintained hardwood plank floors and almost 10 foot ceilings! Your eyes will be immediately drawn towards the light pouring in from your "wall of windows" and garden door.

Your S-P-A-C-I-O-U-S light filled bedroom has room for a king sized bed and a fully outfitted walk-in closet.

The bathroom on the entry level has a tub and pedestal sink.

Who could ask for anything more?

Perfectly located in the heart of the Upper West Side known as the Broadway Corridor, 131 West 85th Street is a boutique building nestled between classic brownstone architecture on a tree lined block. Originally three separate structures built in 1880, it was combined into one building in 1968. Amenities include an elevator, video security system, a part-time super and a laundry facility in the basement.

This bustling residential neighborhood is teeming with shops, restaurants, supermarkets and cultural institutions. Oodles of transportation will whisk you throughout the City.

This is your chance to let your imagination run wild and create your ideal dream home both inside and out. Live your best life. Call today!
