39 W 67TH Street #501

39 West 67th Street is a wonderful co-op that sits on 67th Street between Central Park West and Columbus. As you enter into the original elevator with a full-service operator and rod-iron gate you feel like you're being whisked away to Paris...in the heart of Lincoln Center. Close to Central Park, this sunny, beautifully renovated, charming apartment will make you feel right at home. The elegant living room which includes a decorative fireplace is bathed in soft, southern light filtered through a large six-over-six paned bay window, affording a sidelong view of Central Park and the tree lined street. Custom millwork carpentry creates new Palladian style arches inspired by Central Park's iconic Bow Bridge, including one framing a lovely bookcase, which in turn is bordered by artfully disguised storage compartments. Additional features include gleaming four-inch plank oak floors, custom recessed lighting, built-in Boston Acoustic speakers, excellent closet space, radiators with custom covers, and a fireplace with specially designed mantle of faux limestone and slate. In the gourmet kitchen you will find beautiful Calcutta marble counters, top-of-the-line cabinetry, Liebherr refrigerator, Viking stove, GE Profile Series dishwasher, and an LG washer/dryer. The original 20th century curved staircase, with distinctive turned spindle banister accents, leads to the second floor, where the master bedroom also enjoys a south facing bay window, providing the perfect space for a desk, and again a sidelong view of the Park. The bath is separated European fashion into two private chambers; one with a Kohler soaking tub and Waterworks fixtures surrounded by Carrera marble and floating Calcutta marble topped sink (which can easily be converted into a full bath with a pedestal sink and toilet), and the other with wall-mounted toilet and petite sink. Both the master closet and hallway walk-in closet have been outfitted with custom cabinetry. This block is known as the famed West 67th Street Artists Colony Historic District and is on the National Registry of Historic Places. It is one of the most sought after blocks in the city and is move-in ready. Located moments from Central Park, Lincoln Center, Columbus Circle and in wonderful proximity to the subway (B,C,1) and fabulous restaurants. The building is pet friendly, has a bike room, central laundry and a lovely outdoor garden for residents.
