Property Details
Description
This ideally situated Art Deco prewar gem is a full-service doorman building facing Riverside Park. This elegantly renovated junior one bedroom features an oversized sunken living room, high beamed ceilings with crown moldings, bleached oak herringbone restored wood floors, decorative original Art Deco fireplace, distinctive curved archways and thoughtful details throughout. The tastefully updated kitchen has a new Bosch stainless steel refrigerator, new Bosch dishwasher, new GE microwave, along with a professional-grade DeLonghi gas range. This apartment also features a rare-for-the-building built-in vented washer and dryer, as well as new through-the-wall air conditioners. With plenty of space for storage, the queen-sized bedroom has its own walk-in closet in addition to the laundry closet. There's another large walk-in closet and a separate coat closet in the entryway, supplemented with clever built-in storage solutions throughout.
The solidly thick walls of this Boak and Paris designed prewar classic create a virtually silent building, obvious even in the recently remodeled hallways. This building is meticulously managed and in an incredibly safe neighborhood - the attentive 24 hour full service doormen and live-in superintendent assure peace of mind. All deliveries are either sent up by elevator or escorted by building attendants, while smaller packages and mail are silently delivered to your door every day. If needed, commercial-grade laundry facilities, private storage rooms, and bike room are located in the basement. Breathe easy with the open skies and serenity of Riverside Park and the Hudson River right across the street. This building is incredibly pet-friendly, which is ideal since one of the friendliest dog parks on the UWS is right across the street.
