*BACK ON THE MARKET* Welcome to this expansive 3 bedroom F line, the largest 6 room residence in one of Carnegie Hill's most desirable Co-ops. This thoughtfully laid out home boasts a generously sized windowed eat-in kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances. The nearly 10 1/2 feet high ceilings and oversized double-pane casement windows allow natural light to fill the space. The living room offers a peaceful street view and open sky exposure, complemented by a wood-burning fireplace for added elegance during your evenings. Currently set up as a 3 bedroom plus an office/den, this flexible layout can easily be reconfigured into a grand 2 bedroom plus a formal dining room, providing you with the opportunity to personalize the space to your liking. The walls have been freshly skim-coated, and with some care, the sturdy oak and maple wood floors can be restored to their original splendor. The apartment also retains its original charm with transoms, beamed ceilings, and old-world details that create a warm and inviting atmosphere. A standout feature of this home is the building's allowance for washer/dryer installations, offering a significant convenience for modern living. While some upgrades will be desired, this apartment presents an excellent opportunity to reside in a spacious and charming home in one of the city's most sought-after neighborhoods.
