Description

NO BOARD APPROVAL! IN UNIT WASHER-DRYER!

The jewel on the top floor of a classic Upper West Side brownstone, Apartment 4D at 304 West 88th Street, is the perfect blend of Old New York charm, and contemporary living at its best.

As you step inside this sun-drenched apartment you are welcomed home to your own private oasis. 12 foot ceilings, two enormous skylights, and views overlooking the tree-lined street below immediately create a relaxing and tranquil environment. All the while classic New York exposed brick walls, a working wood burning fireplace, and a spacious 9 foot standing loft, which spans approximately 20 feet by 6 feet, give this home a truly unique character.

The king sized bedroom features exposed brick walls, and can easily accommodate a king bed, end tables and a dresser or a queen bed and desk/bureau.

The refinished kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, a dishwasher, and plenty of cabinet space. The bathroom is also reunited with a marble shower fitted with sliding glass doors and marble floors.

The 9 foot standing loft can be used to suit a variety of needs as it offers a great deal of easily accessible space. Possibilities include a guest bedroom as it can easily accommodate a queen bed, or it can be used as a den, library, home office, or even a home gym as a treadmill, elliptical or resistance machine can easily fit. The loft also features it's own skylight providing natural light and creating a truly charming environment.

The floors throughout the apartment have been recently refinished, and there is also an abundance of storage available throughout the home.

304 West 88th Street is located on a tranquil, tree-lined, prime Upper West Side block, a short walk from the subway, and just moments from a gorgeous section of Riverside Park with a dog park, tennis courts, biking and running and much more along the Hudson River. Shop at organic shopping markets and enjoy fine dining on Broadway, a swath of new trendy restaurants on Columbus, or stay home and cook steak, fish and winter soups in an increasingly rare New York City wood burning fireplace.

This high-end neighborhood boast both livability and convenience. It has excellent access to transportation: downtown trains are a block and a half away, cabs zip down quiet West End Avenue, or jump on the West Side highway and get out of town!

Pied-à-terre use is permitted and subletting is allowed at 304 West 88th Street with board approval. Pets are welcome.
