Description

Spectacular architectural gem. Welcome to this stunning and spacious corner one-bedroom in prime Upper West Side where residents enjoy luxury living and timeless New York City style. Residence 10C embraces its pre-war charm with 9'6 high beam ceilings, a gorgeous decorative fireplace, crown moldings, elegant wood paneled doors, transom windows, and beautiful dark walnut hardwood floors throughout. The home's layout offers a seamless flow with Northwestern exposures, a gracious foyer upon entry, and generous natural light streaming through every window. A dramatic living room is impressive for its size and magnificent shape, and offers ample room for entertaining with an open living and dining plan. Equally awe-inspiring is the classic windowed bathroom with large vintage cast iron soaking tub and a mahogany porcelain vanity. Also, the ingenious kitchen offers a very unique aesthetic with artistic industrial materials and custom wood cabinetry. What's even more, the apartment comes with a large walk-in storage unit. This home can be your private oasis in the middle of Manhattan; the perfect combination of size, location, pre-war details and value. 257 West 86th Street is a highly sought-after boutique co-op and is enviably located between two of Manhattan's most treasured parks; steps away from Riverside Park, and a short stroll to Central Park. Amenities include a 24-hour attended lobby, elevator operator, laundry, roof deck, and private storage unit. Just 500 feet from the 1 train and very close to 2/3/C lines and various buses. Pied-a-terres allowed, pets allowed and maximum financing is 65%. A flip tax of 2.5% is paid by the seller.
