Description

OPEN HOUSES BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. A renovated two-bedroom in a pre-war condominium with high ceilings and private outdoor space in South Harlem, offering a unique blend of classic charm and modern luxury. As you step through the welcoming entry foyer, prepare to be captivated by the grandeur of this residence. The spacious open-concept living room boasts soaring 10' ceilings, bathing the room in natural light from two exposures. This versatile space provides ample room for both living and dining, and beautiful French doors lead to your very own private terrace off the living room. The open windowed chef's kitchen is a culinary masterpiece, featuring Carerra marble countertops with a matching turned-up marble slab backsplash, crisp white cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. This quiet apartment offers a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Both bedrooms are adorned with generous windows that frame picturesque treetops, showcasing the beautiful architecture and open sky. The spacious primary bedroom even includes a convenient washer/dryer in the closet for added convenience. The windowed spa-like marble bathroom is complete with a deep soaking tub, where you can unwind and rejuvenate after a long day. Walnut-stained hardwood floors and customized closets can be found throughout the residence, adding a touch of luxury to every corner. Originally constructed in 1910, The Casa Loma was thoughtfully converted into a 16-unit pet-friendly elevator condominium in 2007. The building boasts the "world's greatest super" for your convenience and offers low common charges. Additional amenities include a storage locker and bicycle storage. However, the crown jewel of this condominium is the 4,000 sq ft planted and furnished roof deck. This enchanting space features a community herb garden and offers incredible layered views of Central Park, the Manhattan skyline, Columbia University, and the iconic Cathedral of St. John the Divine. Location-wise, you couldn't ask for more. Central Park, Morningside Park, and Columbia University are just a few short blocks away. Plus, with the 2/3 and B/C subway lines on the same block, you'll enjoy seamless transportation to Midtown in mere minutes. This prime South Harlem location places you just off Harlem's renowned Restaurant Row, offering an array of dining options including Lido, Harlem Tavern, LoLo's Seafood Shack, Blvd Bistro, Row House, Melba's, Mess Hall, Double Dutch, Levain Bakery, and an abundance of shopping choices. There is a monthly assessment of $320.63 in place until August 2024.
