Description

Apartment 16D has just gotten a make-over! Check out the new pictures. Beyond the fabulous location, the light and open N/E views are excellent as is the condition of the apartment. The kitchen was renovated a couple of years ago and has stainless steel appliances including a D/W. Manchester House sits on a coveted UWS museum block steps from the Museum of Natural History! This can be your perfect home or pied-a-terre. Co-purchasing, gifting and guarantors are allowed. It is quiet and serene just like a bird's nest perched on a high floor. Original details have been preserved including a windowed bath, moldings and beamed ceilings. The closets have been updated to take advantage of the high ceiling height, and there is additional storage under the kitchen bar/counter. A formal entry foyer adds charm to the space. The Manchester House was designed and built in 1926 by world renowned architect Emery Roth. It feels like you are in England and the lobby is often photographed for its architectural interest. There is a doorman from 9am-midnight along with a live in super and laundry in the basement. Pet friendly with approval.
