Description

An Upper Carnegie gem directly across the street from Central Park's sparkling Harlem Meer lake! This tastefully updated turnkey home with south and west exposures awaits you with tree top and partial park views. The 3rd floor windows give you a seasonal symphony of views from springtime blossoms to vibrant foliage in autumn.

Each room gets beaming afternoon light, a perfect retreat for a curl up with a book and a cuppa for a moment of bliss whilst still being in the heart of it all. Gorgeous hardwood floors anchor the space throughout. The generous living room has built in floor to ceiling bookcases for displaying your tomes and objets d'art. The dining nook has been recently kitted out with two tall storage closets along with cabinetry and a counter space for use as a dry bar or buffet. The recently renovated kitchen offers an efficient layout with a Bertazzoni gas range and ventilation hood by Zephyr and an elegant Liebherr refrigerator. A sunny window keeps your creative juices flowing whilst whipping up your culinary magic.
The primary bedroom is expansive, easily ready for a king bed and offers and entire wall of built in closets and drawers, along with an additional deep closet to accommodate larger items.
The secondary bedroom is currently used as an at home corner office and guestroom, but could easily convert to a dedicated bedroom.
The bathroom is both updated and timeless with clean lines and elegant fixtures.
Both dogs and cats are welcome here, and with your park proximity you can be sure that walks are a treat for all.
A shared laundry room is in the basement.
The coop is well managed with strong financials. The full-time door staff welcome you into the recently renovated lobby. The hallways are getting a refresh in the near future as well. Maintenace includes all utilities. Parking and additional storage are possible with a waitlist. $25 per share flip tax is paid by seller. Gifting, pied a terre, and limited subletting are allowed.
The neighborhood is vibrant. The Meer Lake recreation center is close to completion and will offer a larger than Olympic sized pool and a skating rink. The conservatory gardens are a stunning pocket of formal botanical beauty. The building is at the top of Museum Mile, offering so many cultural and art opportunities to explore. 1270 5th Avenue was also a long-time home to the folk singer Odetta, and is adorned with a historic landmark plaque in her honor.
Transportation is a dream for an east side or a west side commute with the 2, 3, and 6 trains just a few blocks away as are multiple bus lines.
Please reach out to the listing agent to schedule your tour, your new home awaits.
