1 W 67TH Street #410411

Here is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history - a classic duplex with two original oak staircases, oak moldings, beamed ceilings, master craftsman oak doors, oversized windows, high 9' ceilings and other period details. This spacious 7.5 room duplex in the iconic Hotel des Artistes features sun-drenched living and dining rooms, an eat-in kitchen and laundry on the first floor. A private upper floor has three bedrooms, three baths, nine closets including two walk in closets and an office, which could also serve as a guest room or bedroom. This unique home, a combination of two apartments, overlooks tree-lined West 67 Street, once called by The New York Times one of the city's most beautiful streets. The Hotel des Artistes is a full service building steps from Central Park and Lincoln Center. It offers a concierge and elevator operator as well as amenities seldom available in pre-war cooperatives -- a swimming pool, two workout rooms, a squash court, roof garden and discount dining at The Leopard at the des Artistes. It has been home to many celebrities including Noel Coward, Isadora Duncan, Norman Rockwell, NYC Mayor John Lindsay and Joel Grey.
