DISTINGUISHED SOPHISTICATION! This exquisite 2BR/2bath is so perfect that it is hard to know where to start as it includes all the coveted features any home buyer could possibly want from location to size to condition. This is a real home you can actually grow into, so if you're looking to plant roots in this vibrant upstate Manhattan community, you should definitely come and check this gem out! You immediately get a sense of space, as the entrance opens to a ginormous foyer/dining area/kitchen/living room combo. The beautiful kitchen has been completely updated and has lovely carrara marble walls, modern light wood cabinetry, and high-end stainless appliances, complemented by black granite counters. It cleverly extends into the dining area with an island that provides additional storage and counter space, and adjoining all of this, you will find an oversized sunken living room - what a divine setup for anyone who likes to entertain at home! Conveniently separate from the living area you will find the generous bedrooms and bathrooms, which are large even for uptown standards! The master bedroom at the end of a sprawling hallway accommodates an en-suite bathroom straight from the pages of a design magazine with white carrara marble floors and white fixtures, and has two closets. The second bedroom with two exposures and another two closets is adjoining the common bathroom with an original cast iron soaking tub and white subway tiling and fixtures. Six (!!) closets will take care of all your storage needs, and there are original wood floors throughout this amazing home. This quintessential deco building with an inviting lobby is located on a tree-lined block just steps from transportation (A Express; also 1 Local at Dyckman) and Ft. Tryon Park, and two blocks south of the Dyckman Street "restaurant "row" & shopping strip with a variety of amenities, including eateries, stores, banks, etc., making this an all-around convenient location. But don't let the convenience end there: with such a perfectly appointed home you can skip all the renovation stress and after a long day's work simply come to your new uptown home where relaxation awaits...!
