Description

LIVE LIKE YOU?RE ON VACATION - When you first enter this tranquil, comfortably-scaled, cheerful pre-war home ? a stone?s throw from Central Park & all of the best of the Upper Westside ? you'll know. You'll immediately be drawn to the bright, oversized windows in the open-plan living/dining room. You?ll be enveloped by a rare, open, dramatic vista that can only happen right here: Unfolding in front if you are the gorgeous architectural details of the world-famous Dakota, the Museum of Natural History, the heart-warming facades of Henry Hardenberg?s historic townhouses below, big sky, and a pretty sidelong tree-peek courtesy of Central Park.

-You?ll turn around from the uniquely layered view, and you?ll see a renovated home that has it all: Here is the feel-good, comfortably refined residence with an open plan living/dining room, and an open designer kitchen with stone counters, dining bar, and stainless, top-shelf appliances by Viking, Subzero, and Miele.

-Easy to love and easy to live, this upgraded beauty feels like a large, luxury hotel suite. The sizable bedroom enjoys the same textured views as the living room, and offers a big walk-in closet. The attractive bath is custom designed, and boasts a spa shower. .

-Here is the home that allows you to spread out in style ? custom touches include built-out closets with great storage, surround sound, thoughtful lighting, and a sweet foyer create a luxe, soulful vibe. .

-Ideally situated and pin-drop quiet, this sweet suite is a winsome choice that lives largely, and enjoys prime proximity to the neighborhood?s most coveted and treasured cultural, dining, and shopping destinations. Central Park is practically your front yard, easy transportation options are at your doorstep, and your convenient, world-class location comes with bragging rights. .

-Well served by the legendary staff and amenities of the uber-convenient, majestically Mid-Century Mayfair Towers, life here is easy and fun: With a full service staff, a concierge, a garage with Zipcars, a play-yard, a fitness center, a jaw-dropping planted roof deck, a valet with tailor, laundry on each floor, bike room, and more, this pet-friendly building makes daily life feel like a vacation. .

-Pieds a terres purchases, subletting, co-purchases, and buying via financial assistance from another are all considered mindfully by the Board on a case by case basis. .
