***NEW HIGH-END BATH RENOVATION***This cheerful studio apartment gets sparkling sunshine in the morning and early afternoon. Stainless-steel appliances, including dishwasher, are featured in the good-condition kitchen. Hardwood floor in great shape. Bathroom brand-new and pristine. Freshly painted all around. This home is a beautiful, affordable, move-right-in blank slate to arrange exactly the way you want. Plus, you get an amazingly low maintenance. Fort Tryon Gardens is a well-managed, financially sound 7-building, 350-unit co-op situated right across the street from the A-line Express 190th Street Station. The 191st Street #1 is two blocks away on Broadway. Surrounded by convenient stores and restaurants, everything you need is here, not to mention you're also across the street from Fort Tryon Park---a spectacular amenity with the Heather Gardens, the Cloisters Museum, old-growth forest, verdant lawns and beautiful views of the Hudson River and the New Jersey Palisades. It's a backyard fit for billionaires. The co-op has made significant capital improvements in recent years, including a brand-new roof and facade upgrades. Pied-a-terre and co-purchasing are allowed. Some photos are virtually staged.
