Property Summary
Description
This is a lovely three to four bedroom, full-floor pre-War coop with three full bathrooms and great light and open views from four exposures. It was once the top half of a duplex belonging to George and Ira Gershwin, the creators of Porgy and Bess. Situated on a prime residential block located between Park and Lexington avenues, this unique full-floor apartment has a private foyer, large gracious living room facing north with wood burning fireplace, separate dining area and two separate bedrooms with en-suite baths. Most unusual is a one-of-a-kind bedroom suite that is totally private, recently refreshed and features a full bath, bedroom and separate sleep loft with office area. In addition, there is a 300 sq. ft. attic that works perfectly as a children's playroom, laundry room and storage area. There is a washer/dryer in the apartment. There is a large private storage bin for the apartment in the basement as well as bicycle storage. Situated in a fine, intimate and well-run building, this wonderful apartment and its flexible layout has many design possibilities and is realistically priced. Bring your architect or designer to see this historic home. This is a pet friendly building. Pied-a-terre is allowed.
