Description

1916 SOUL + 2026 SENSIBILITY = 4-EVER TIMELESS BEAUTY

RENOVATED & RE-INVENTED SOULFUL HEART-WARMER w/OPEN PLAN LIVING / DINING / KITCHEN

DOWNTOWN UPTOWN FEEL IN FLEXIBLE LINE (Add 2nd Bath & W/D w/Board Approval -- See Alternate Plan)

SWEET POSITION IN PRIZED, FULL SERVICE DESOTO (w/Roof Garden & Playroom & Electric/Cable/Wifi sub-metered)

(NOTE: Advertised maintenance is lower than the true maintenance of $2526.68. See below** for more details).

Handsome, bright, and gorgeous, this re-imagined, upgraded, classic residence is a sizable and flexible stand-out. High ceilings soar above you, underfoot are beautiful hardwood floors, and everywhere there is light, openness, and beauty. With original moldings, custom built-ins, and a smart, timeless layout that comfortably accommodates today's expansive life, this home hits all the right notes.

Enter the gracious marble foyer, with its good closets, welcoming scale, and bar space. Through the attractive French doors, you flow into this home's beautiful core, the Great Room. Here is a lofted-out, open-plan living/dining/kitchen expanse that is the heartfelt soul of this stretch-out stunner. Three over-scaled windows grace this grand entertaining space, brightening the comfortable living room, the dining area, and the custom cook’s kitchen (with its top shelf stainless appliances, granite countertops, and big breakfast bar).

Quite separate from the living spaces, are the two big, peaceful, bright bedrooms. The dual access primary suite enjoys more of this home's signature big windows, high ceilings, and peace and quiet. With stylish, smart built-ins and good closet space, this masterful, king-sized bedroom is served by a classic, windowed bath (with spa tub). The second bedroom enjoys more high ceilings, big walls, dual entrances, and more good closet space.

Equidistant from both Central and Riverside Parks, with playgrounds and greenspaces galore, life here is both easy and fun. In its prized, prime location, most every area cultural, dining, shopping, entertainment and fitness destination (Equinox across the street) is nearby — not to mention a plethora of easy express and local transportation options. Sweetly positioned in its treasured DeSoto address, this winsome home enjoys all the benefits of its famous 1916 building: Greeting you every day are a friendly, full time staff (in a grand, restored, marble lobby), helpful resident manager, a delightful playroom, a stunningly landscaped roof deck, and bike/laundry/storage rooms. Pet and pied-a-terre (case-by-case) friendly, the delightful DeSoto includes all electric, cable, and wifi charges sub-metered within the monthly maintenance.

Rare is the residence that bridges classic beauty with all the comforts of today — creating a winsome home that resonates with timeless beauty and comfort. This is that home.

(NOTE: Some in this line add a half bathroom in the kitchen, or potentially split the full bath into two smaller full baths — and a washer / dryer. All must be approved by the board.)

(Flip Tax: 2.5% split between buyer and seller)

(**NOTE: There is an additional $47.90 monthly charge for premium cable and high-speed internet. Additionally, unlike the vast majority of Manhattan co-ops, shareholders at the DeSoto are given the co-op/condo primary residence tax abatement each year (as opposed to the co-op keeping the benefit for its reserves). This amounts to a substantial annual benefit for the shareholders themselves. In 2023, Residence 77 was abated $2838.52, thereby reducing the
