Description
DOWNTOWN "LOFT" HOME IN UPTOWN CLASSIC ADDRESS: BIG 1BR REIMAGINED AS A LOFT RARE & SOULFUL CORNER 8-WINDOW STUNNER w/DECORATIVE FIREPLACE, EXPOSED BRICK, & 10-FOOT CEILINGS MUSEUM PARK BLOCK CLOSE TO CENTRAL PARK IN PERFECTLY PRIME LOCATION PET & PIED A TERRE FRIENDLY WHERE GUARANTORS, GIFTING, CO-PURCHASES & ONE-BUYING-FOR-ANOTHER ACCEPTABLE (w/Board Approval) This is the reimagined, deconstructed, renovated home that changes hearts and inspires good vibes whenever you’re enjoying this big, re-invented space. With high ceilings above, handsome hardwood floors underfoot, over-scaled, bright windows in two directions (cross-breezes anyone?), and a rare and lofty, stretch-out layout — life here is bigger, sexier, and more soulful. This is not your typical Pre-War one bedroom home. This is a home whose original architecture is front and center, enhanced by its exposed brick, anchored by its decorative fireplace and built-ins, and mindfully planned to inspire the senses and soothe the soul. There is a tranquil, easy-to-love feeling in this home, and its unique plan and finish make it a refreshing departure from a typical Pre-War home. A sweet gallery/foyer spills onto the big, dramatic living/dining rooms -- a light and airy space anchored by a trio of windows by the dining area, and more windows in the sleeping space -- boasting big open sky and city views. Served by an upgraded windowed kitchen — with ample cabinet and counter space — this great room is ideal for big entertaining and quiet recharging. The well scaled bedroom is now part of the open plan, and features a "wall" of storage and impressive closet space. The windowed bath is classic and features the original cast-iron soaking tub. Well positioned in its good looking, 1914 building, this easy-to-love residence enjoys the benefits of its coveted live-in Super, and separate bike/laundry rooms. Pet and pied-terre-friendly — with Museum and Central Parks right up the street — this winsome home offers a prime location that comes with bragging rights. Conveniently located on a quiet (no through-traffic), picturesque tree-lined street, this easy-living "loft" offers prime proximity to every area dining, shopping, and cultural destination. Transportation options abound (1, B and C trains), and minutes away are Trader Joe’s, Citarella, Zabar’s, Fairway, the Beacon Theatre, and Lincoln Center — just to name a few. If you want to live uptown, but you hunger for a downtown vibe, then come discover the home that makes it all possible. Your exciting downtown-uptown life starts here.
