The perfect 2 Bedroom, 1.5 Bathroom Pre-war apartment. Enter this full-service pre-war co-op from a tree-lined Street entrance just off of Lexington and whisk right up the elevator to your charming oasis on the fifth floor. You will be welcomed by a spacious entry foyer with a coat closet and into the great room which is perfectly proportioned for living, dining and entertaining. Abundant south sun floods the room and showcases the original Pre-war details including herringbone wood floors, high beamed-ceilings and crown molding throughout. The eat-in kitchen is large and has a perfectly positioned window next to the breakfast area. If one prefers a more contemporary style of living the kitchen can be opened up to the Great room with board approval.
