Don't miss this excellent opportunity to restore a spacious classic prewar 5 room apartment in a prime UWS location! This perfect classic layout offers style and comfort, with an oversized living room, gracious formal dining room and enormous windowed kitchen. The living room is warm and welcoming with a decorative fireplace, high beamed ceilings and elegant original crown molding. Enter the apartment through a proper foyer, with coat closet, leading to the beautifully proportioned living room and adjacent formal dining room. Light fills the room. Opposite the dining room is a huge eat-in kitchen providing excellent design options. The bedroom hall leads to a windowed bathroom and two generous pin drop quiet bedrooms, both with adequate closets. Currently configured as two bedrooms, apartments in this C line have been converted to perfect three bedroom apartments by dividing the oversized DR into a bedroom and dining area. An additional windowed half bath near the kitchen completes the picture. This apartment is just waiting to become your dream home - designed just as you would want it, and will be sold with a dedicated basement storage bin. In home washer/dryers are permitted. This 38 unit, 10 story building was designed by Schwartz and Gross in 1914. Amenities include a video intercom system, a terrific resident super, a children's playroom, bike storage and laundry facilities. Pets are permitted as is 75% financing. The location could not be better for public transportation, fabulous food shopping, restaurants and easy access to both Riverside Park and Central Park.
