215 W 98TH Street #12C

This unique and incredibly sunny top-floor three bedroom, three-bathroom duplex apartment has an easy and open feel to it that is warm and inviting. A proper entry foyer leads to a long gallery, which is a perfect area to display artwork and/or a book collection and easily doubles as a home office. The original wall between the formal dining room and living room has been removed, creating an incredibly spacious entertaining area presenting a variety of living, dining, and seating options. The enormous, windowed eat-in kitchen contains high-end stainless steel appliances including a 6-burner Viking stove, a Liebherr refrigerator and a Bosch dishwasher. The kitchen also has a double sink and incredible cabinet and counter space with plenty of room for a few chefs to roam. Also on the main floor are two bedrooms facing South, a windowed marble bathroom in the bedroom wing and a full guest bathroom. Downstairs is the king-size primary bedroom suite, accented with a stunning wood-coffered ceiling and a walk-in closet. This level also includes a separate sitting room; perfect as a den or an additional office as well as a large master bathroom. Additional apartment features include a full-sized washer dryer, 9'6" ceilings, motorized shades and hardwood floors throughout. The Gramont is a well-established, full-service prewar co-operative built in 1911. The building entrance is stunning and leads to an elegant marble lobby with tremendous intact original detail. The co-op has a full-time doorman, a bike room and a laundry room in the basement. The building is perfectly located, near the 2/3 express train, a variety of restaurants and shops, and only two blocks from the revitalized Columbus Avenue shopping corridor; which includes Whole Foods, Petco and Michael's. Pets are welcome. Pied a terres are not allowed.
