Description
Classic City Living w/Fireplace Between MoMA and Central Park Introducing this elegant pre-war boutique Midtown condo with a wood-burning fireplace and triple exposure, a pristine 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offering a quintessential Manhattan lifestyle close to MoMA, Central Park, Carnegie Hall, Radio City Music Hall, and Rockefeller Center. A welcoming foyer with a coat closet flows past a windowed galley kitchen and into a spacious living and dining area saturated with southern light. Gorgeous hardwood floors complement its high ceilings and classic sash windows. The lovely wood-burning fireplace adds character and charm and is especially luxurious during cool fall and winter nights. The kitchen has western exposure and is equipped with custom white lacquer cabinets, sleek white countertops, mirrored backsplash, and high-end appliances including an eco-friendly induction stove. The primary suite receives warm southern light and boasts a wall of built-in closets as well as a windowed en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom has northern exposure with a deep reach-in closet and easy access to a windowed second bathroom. Both bathrooms have classic finishes with deep soaking tubs. A private storage space located in the basement is included. Note: the unit is being offered fully furnished or can be delivered unfurnished. Some of the listing photos are virtually staged to illustrate a side-by-side comparison of the present interior along with a contemporary inspired design aesthetic. 40 West 55th Street is a pre-war condominium with full-time door attendants, a live-in super, common laundry, and a bicycle room. Nestled in the heart of Midtown, the building is four blocks from Pulitzer Fountain and Central Park and is surrounded by restaurants, bars, cafes, cultural institutions, and shops. It is close to the Theater District, Columbus Circle, and Lenox Hill. Nearby subway lines include the 1/A/C/E/B/D/F/M/N/Q/R/W. Pets are welcome.
