Description
Now, again, available courtesy of a board turn-down. Glamorous UWS Penthouse offering sophisticated indoor space and life-changing amounts of private outdoor space! This stunning penthouse will stop you in your tracks. The spacious floor-through is located on the top floors of a majestic extra-wide Revival brownstone on a quiet street just half a block from Central Park. It is replete with exquisite detail as well gushing with style. Enter through the foyer where you will be bathed in light from one of the three skylights gracing the 10 ½ foot ceilings of this home. (In fact, so much light you will save on your electric bills!) The separate dining room is chic and bright and makes a statement with artistic lighting and refined design. It is adjacent to the handsome kitchen, with its top-of-the-line suite of Bosch stainless steel appliances and a brand-new Sub Zero Refrigerator, as well as marble countertops. Around the corner are the two roomy bedrooms. The master houses a walk-in cedar closet (one of two cedar closets in the home) and the second bedroom showcases exposed brick. Outside the bedrooms is a stacked Bosch washer and dryer tucked away in one of this home’s manifold storage areas. Past the dining room and through the supersized French doors, you are led into the living room, a grand space oozing with character. With white-washed brick and a wood-burning fireplace, this vast space is perfect for entertaining. Three very large windows welcome light and views of the quiet tree-lined street below. This sizable space is large enough to accommodate multiple sitting areas. Another visually arresting feature of this home is its elegant and artistic staircase. With a backdrop of ceiling-high bookshelves, it leads up to the most spectacular and unmatched features of this home--the breath-taking bi-level roof deck. More outdoor space than you could dream of having, this meticulously landscaped and maintained private space is the launch point to outdoor living, peeks of Central Park, and skyline views. The deck is the size of the entire roof and has its own automated irrigation system. It is ideal for entertaining or for relaxing and enjoying an outdoor meal. In a prime UWS location, this home is right next to Central Park, and close to museums, other cultural institutions, prime shopping, and fabulous cuisine, with dozens of nearby restaurants and cafes. It is close to the B/C and 1/2/3 Subway lines, has bike storage, as well as a large individual storage space in the basement. This pristine apartment in a well-maintained building is “move-in ready.” With sophisticated design and vast outdoor space, come see this incredible penthouse that is, once again, available! Second chances only come around once!
