The spacious two bedroom apartment features tons of custom cabinetry, large windows throughout, a 21 foot hallway, updated kitchen appliances, and useful details like pocket doors, fun light fixtures and built-in ceiling fans. Top floor with nobody above you means peace of mind and peaceful enjoyment. Locationwise... forgetaboutit... It's situated in an ideal Upper West Side street a few short minutes from the park and the bustling avenues which make up the veins of this exciting, yet simultaneously calm part of town. This center-of-the-universe neighborhood has the historic architecture, the family friendly culture, and the familiar diverse community all of which create that quintessentially must-have NYC lifestyle you've been searching for. Less than two blocks from Central Park, on the same block as PS 166 (allowing for automatic enrollment to one of the most sought-after elementary schools in the nation), close to a Whole Foods & Duane Reade, right next to the brand new Trader Joe's, and around the corner from tons of shops, markets and eateries, this area could not be more convenient. Close by is Zabars, D'agostino and a CVS. After your local errands, take a jaunt in the park around the lake or just grab the metro a few short blocks away to easily explore the entire city. Your dream pad awaits. -washer / dryer in the apartment -common bike storage & common storage available -pied-a-terres & pets allowed -parking garage across the street -private showings by appointment only
