325 W 45TH Street #102

Take advantage of this rare opportunity to own a gorgeously restored, one-of-a-kind, one-bedroom sanctuary located in the historic and mystique-infused Whitby, recently profiled in the New York Times, where such notable 20th Century icons as Doris Day, George Burns and Al Capone spent their days and nights. This quiet, first floor home, tucked away in a private corner of the building, has been lovingly and thoughtfully transformed so that all of its original, 1920's classic detail remain while at the same time offering the comforts of contemporary living. A dramatic entry foyer with closet welcomes you into the spacious living room with its original oak floors and high beamed ceilings enhanced by oversized windows with Eastern exposures. The windowed kitchen has been renovated into a mini "chef's delight" and is equipped with a Miele cooktop and microwave, stainless steel Northland refrigerator and accent lighting. The ample bathroom, ideally situated between the living and bedroom and perfect for guests, is also windowed and has been modernized with a pedestal Kohler sink, a re-glazed vintage bathtub and new, porcelain wall and floor subway tile. The large, South & East-facing bedroom is bathed in light and features clever, built-in wooden shelving, opening up exciting possibilities for more varied use of the room. Another valuable feature of this apartment is its huge, walk-in closet offering an abundance of storage. And finally, a stable, low monthly maintenance makes this a highly attractive investment for the discerning buyer. The Whitby was designed by the esteemed architect Emery Roth (The San Remo, The Beresford) and completed in 1923. This 217-unit, noble structure, renowned for its impressive three sturdy bays and rippling brick cornice, is located on West 45th Street between 8th and 9th Aves in the heart of NYC's fabled theatre district.The Whitby is a full-service co-op and features one of the most spectacular roofdecks in Midtown West with 360 degree, open city views.

It is convenient to all major transportation and an abundance of restaurants, cafes and entertainment. It is pied-a-terre, co-purchasing and pet-friendly.
