Description
CLASSIC SIX SPONSOR UNIT
NO BOARD APPROVAL
Opportunity abounds in this pre-war classic six home. Offering a flexible layout and great natural light, this 3-bedroom 3-bath home can be customized to suit any lifestyle. Welcomed by a grand foyer, there is an excellent flow for entertaining from the dining area to the expansive living area. The light-filled rooms are due to the northern and eastern exposures from multiple windows overlooking West 79th and park views including Museum of Natural History. With 9' ceilings and generously sized rooms, Apartment 9A maintains the pre-war grandeur and charm.
The home is in overall good condition making it ready for its next owner. As a bonus, the apartment has already been updated with custom Citiquiet windows throughout. The floorplan can simply convert to a four-bedroom home (or three larger bedrooms) while preserving a sizable dining space and living room. Additionally, the kitchen can be conjoined with the study to create an enormous gourmet eat-in kitchen and create space for a washer and dryer.
Designed in the Italian Renaissance style by Emery Roth in 1925, 118 West 79 seamlessly incorporates elegance and comfort. With only a few apartments per each floor, there is a general sense of neighborly rapport not found in larger co-ops. Primely located on the famous West 79th Street Museum block, it is steps away from Central Park and Museum of Natural History, along with close proximity to various public transportation, desired schools, and variety of restaurants and boutique shops that line Columbus Avenue. The monthly maintenance includes full-time doorman, windowed fitness room, backyard patio, storage unit, bike storage for a fee, live-in super, and mail delivery service to each apartment.
Sponsor unit so no co-op board approval. Pets, In-unit W/D and central AC are permitted.
Showings by appointment only.
