Description

Welcome home to this tastefully renovated classic six on the quiet tree lined Upper West Side block of 98th Street. The apartment boasts nearly 1400 sq ft adorned with original details such as mahogany paneling in the dining room and original parquet flooring highlighted with inlaid borders that add to the original pre-war charm. Southern facing windows in the living room, master bedroom, and bath not only allow for ample all day natural light and sun, but also face out onto the relaxing tree tops of 98th Street. Two nicely sized bedrooms with closets and built in storage share the tastefully remodeled bathroom with an original cast iron soaking tub. There is also a charming third guest bedroom, den or home office with a full bathroom. The kitchen was recently remodeled combining the classic style with modern function and sensibility. It boasts the original wood cabinetry, gas range, and a large window. Abundant closets throughout the unit provide multiple storage options and the original tall glazed mahogany French doors add a level of intrigue and proportion for the most discerning buyer.

The 1906 building also features a perfectly manicured common roof deck outfitted with multiple seating spaces perfect for entertaining, relaxing or enjoying the views. The building is kept in impeccable condition due to a live-in resident manager and features a renovated lobby and elevator. Other features include card operated laundry room, bike room and available storage. Pets and pied-a-terres are welcome.

With lower than average maintenance for a building of this caliber and apartment size paired with solid building financials, this co-op is even more desirable. The location is unbeatable with West Side Market less than a block away , and within 2 blocks of the 96th street Subway. Don’t miss this classic offering.
