Description

Have you ever wondered how fabulous it would be to live in an elegant pre-war coop just a short stroll from the Museum of Natural History and Central Park? Why settle for less? Love where you live.

Quaint and graceful pre-war 1BR coop with high 9'7'' ceilings and generously sized rooms. A spacious entry foyer welcomes you, rolling easily into the wide living room and dining area. At the end of a long day, relax at your comfortable bedroom - large enough for any size bed plus a home office, if you wish. The kitchen is complete with a dining bar - actually, it's ok to call it an eat in.

One of the highlights of this home may be its extra large bathroom. No camera angle could quite capture its sheer potential, but you may review the floor plan and let your imagination soar. Even better, give me a call to come and take a look in person. With your creativity, this bathroom may just become one of the most sensational spa-like bathrooms around. Or maybe an extra dressing room - it's up to you.

The Dorset, a boutique friendly co-op, is home to a gorgeous roof deck (currently under renovation), beautifully landscaped garden, attended lobby 12 pm-12 am, super and porter, as well as laundry, storage and a bike room. The location speaks for itself. What are you waiting for?
