Description

An incredible opportunity to own an expansive (approx. 1100 SF) 2BR/1.5 BA apartment in a Fifth Avenue doorman building situated in a prime location adjacent to the beautiful and serene north end of Central Park! A large entry foyer contains 3 large closets and opens directly into the over-sized living room, creating several layout options for entertaining and dining. The south-facing LR faces quiet 108th Street and gets abundant natural light. There is a large windowed eat-in kitchen complete with a breakfast nook, modern appliances, an abundance of cabinet space, and a pantry. The large primary bedroom features a walk-in closet, a second large closet, and an en-suite half-bathroom that can easily be converted into a full bath. This bedroom can easily accommodate a king-sized bed, and has more than enough space for extra bedroom furniture and a separate work space. The secondary bedroom could serve as a children's or adult's bedroom, or a large home office. Both bedrooms face north, giving the apartment natural light all throughout the day. The primary bathroom, featuring a tub and white subway tile, is situated on the bedroom hallway; this layout allows for gracious entertaining while maintaining privacy. 1270 Fifth Avenue is situated on the famous Museum Mile, near Mt. Sinai Hospital and across from Central Park. The stunning north end of Central Park features the gorgeous formal Conservatory Gardens, as well as the Harlem Meer. There is also a major renovation planned that will add a new ice-skating rink, swimming pool, and walking trails to this area of the park. The pet-friendly coop features a 24-hour doorman, live-in super and porters, garage, bike room, laundry room, storage room, garden and community space. Low monthly maintenance includes utilities (heat, hot water, gas, and electricity), and the coop permits pied-a-terres, gifting and financing up to 80%. There is a current ongoing assessment of $60.67 to upgrade the lobby, hallways, building entrance and to add a residence lounge. Located near the 2/3 express trains and the 6 train, 1270 Fifth combines convenience with the excitement of an emerging destination neighborhood!
