310 W 72ND Street #11C

This fine stretch of Manhattan's 72nd St. thoroughfare is right where it and so many Upper-West-Side-defining landmarks begins. The confluence of this storied street with Riverside Park as well as the Historic District and Drive by the same name creates the perfect neighborhood blend of urban and rural, historic and present day. That new New-York spirit has been etched in a tasteful and spacious one bedroom, here in an intimate doorman building. Built during the gilded age of New York's construction renaissance, this home has the room proportions that could only be achieved during the decadent 1920's. Features contemporary developers might call cost prohibitive and impractical prove to be the very things modern Manhattanites crave most. A closeted entry foyer is the perfect segue from outside. Doorways under high, textured ceilings either lead to a wonderfully large living room or pass-through kitchen with windowed dining. In fact, every room has south-facing windows that yield excellent light and open views while remaining oh, so quiet. Beyond the windowed bath and through another hall are a grand bedroom and walk-in closet that together are capable of satisfying all your furniture and wardrobe tastes. The building is staffed around the clock by friendly employees and features bicycle storage, rec room, and central laundry. Access around and out of town couldn't be easier thanks to the West Side Highway, cross-town buses, and express trains to Penn Station. This oasis is only one block from Broadway yet a world away. Welcome to the place with the space within its own walls and without.
