Description

Newly Renovated Mint condition Townhouse, ready to move right in. This Romanesque Revival style townhouse is located on a quiet treelined street one block from Central Park on Manhattan's Upper Westside.

Skylights flood the home with sun and light. The home has been meticulously renovated and designed for contemporary living. The open plan chef's kitchen and dining room with a glass wall of windows overlooking the landscaped garden lends itself to seamless indoor/outdoor living. The beautiful landscaped garden and patio can be accessed on both the garden level and the parlor floor. The home has been rewired for today's living- you can control the heating, cooling, and sound from your smartphone, Central A/C and central vacuum system. Security system in place.Currently the home is configured as a Single family home but can be reconfigured quite easily into an owner's triplex and separate garden apartment to be used as a rental income producing property.
