Description
Live just steps away from Central Park in this spacious and fine three-bedroom, three-bathroom, six-room Pre-War Cooperative home that has been renovated and adapted to meet 21st Century needs. This apartment retains the beautiful solid oak strip floors (some edged with wood inlays), period hardware and 9 foot ceilings that distinguish classic late 1920s apartments. The apartment features a large north-facing living room, gracious dining area/foyer, 3 large bedrooms, many commodious closets and added storage, and a staff room that has an extra-large Whirlpool Duet washer/dryer and is also currently used as an office. Exposures are primarily North with some West and South windows. The large windowed L-shaped kitchen has dark-stained wood cabinets, soft-close drawers, richly mottled and expansive granite counters. The stainless steel appliances include a large LG refrigerator, Thermador oven and 6-burner range as well as a second Jenn-Air wall oven. There is a stainless sink at the center/corner of the kitchen and a microwave. The apartment has been entirely gut-renovated with a new electrical panel & wiring, new plumbing up to the risers, cable, FIOS throughout and features Through-Wall Air-Conditioning and California closets. The windowed master bathroom features touches of red marble trim and imaginative river pebbles on the shower floor, while the windowed 2nd bath features green marble floors, tumbled beige marble wall tiles and has both a tub and shower. There is an assessment of $145.53/month.This late 1920s building originally had 61 units but now has fewer because it has been popular for combinations. It features a 24-hour doorman and live-in resident manager [superintendent], an additional laundry in the basement, storage and a bike room as well as a beautiful roof garden. The building is pet-friendly and allows pied-a-terres on a case-by-case basis. A 2% flip tax is paid by the purchaser and 75% financing is permitted. Transportation, restaurants, shopping of all kinds are within blocks. Top stores at the nearby Columbus Square Shopping Center include Whole Foods, and a new Trader Joes is opening nearby in 2017 as well.
