51 W 81ST Street #2L

Lovely 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom in a boutique prewar co-op directly across from the Museum of Natural History. This charming home boasts a graciously sized square living room, a spacious bedroom with two large closets, a windowed kitchen as well as a generously sized windowed bathroom. Both the kitchen and bathroom were recently renovated. Well-maintained hardwood floors, 10'5" ceilings with beautiful moldings and an abundance of storage throughout complete this wonderful apartment. Best of all, the super low maintenance makes this home a unique opportunity to build equity in a coveted co-op located on West 81st Street, a double-wide street that is arguably one of Manhattan's most desirable blocks right off Central Park West. Why rent when you can own this for less? Built in 1903, The Galaxy - 51 West 81st Street, is an incredibly well run pet friendly co-op with a full-time doorman, live-in super, bike storage, laundry on every floor and a beautiful roof deck with spectacular views of Central Park, the Museum of Natural History and the city's landscape. This central location is near the B/C trains, cross-town bus, the Planetarium, New York Historical Society, and steps from an array of grocery stores including Zabars and Fairway. And don't miss the 79th Street Greenmarket on Sundays! Gifts and guarantors are considered on a case-by-case basis. Pied-a-terres, co-purchasing, subletting after 1 year of ownership and 75% financing permitted.
