Welcome to residence 11K, at full-service Harridge House, located on 57th Street between Second and Third Avenues. The coveted K-line, this cooperative residence offers exceptional proportions, and strong future value. North-facing exposures flood the home with natural light through oversized windows. This is a beautiful oversized one-bedroom (convertible two bedroom) home that needs a little TLS.

The king-sized primary bedroom is a pin-drop quiet retreat, generously scaled and filled with light from a large nearly 8' wide by 5' high double window. A cavernous walk-in closet provides abundant storage.
