Description

Grand and elegant pre-war proportions and detailing abound throughout this fully renovated peninsula 6.5-room apartment at Astor Court, a rare find. Offering southern, Eastern, and Western exposures, Residence 8H features a gracious corner layout measuring approximately 2,100 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. With 10ft ceilings and original moldings throughout, this special home combines voluminous loft-like dimensions with classic prewar sensibility. A gracious entrance gallery welcomes you and leads to an expansive living/dining room nearly 30 feet in length with two exposures and a beautiful wood-burning fireplace. An elegant study with custom built-ins connects to this room, the ideal perch for cozy movie nights. The windowed eat-in kitchen offers a built-in banquette overlooking the building's garden courtyard, custom cabinetry, Calacatta marble countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances, as well as laundry. The three bedrooms are all generously sized with ample closet space, and the bathrooms are well-maintained with original pre-war details. Built in 1916, Astor Court was designed in the Italian palazzo style by renowned architect Charles Platt for developer Vincent Astor, and was one of the first buildings in NYC to offer a beautifully landscaped central garden courtyard. A coop since 1985, this 12-story, 158-unit building is one of the most desirable addresses on the Upper West Side, extending from West 89th Street to West 90th Street between Broadway and Amsterdam Avenues. This ultra-location offers easy access to both Riverside and Central Parks as well as shopping, restaurants, and transportation. This impeccably maintained, full-service building has a 24-hour doorman and Resident Manager. In addition to the common central garden, there is a roof terrace, children's playroom, bike room, and laundry room. Pet-friendly, pied-a-terres permitted. 2% flip tax, 70% financing allowed.
