255 W 90TH Street #5C

Showings will begin on February 1st. This grand 9-room (4-bedroom!) home w many original pre-war details, is available at the Cornwall, an iconic turn of the century co-op. The entertaining rooms include a living room, library and dining room enfilade (in a row.) They are connected by original French pocket doors. These rooms and the generous kitchen are decorated in a mid-century modern style that blends handsomely with the vintage details of the apartment. The four bedrooms (plus a sizable maid's room/possible 5th bedroom) are at the west end of the apartment. These rooms offer great flexibility as they can be kept separate or combined to make larger rooms. The bedrooms require updating and the half bath can easily be turned into a full third bath. The dining room with refurbished original oak wainscoting is gorgeous. Lovely details such as high ceilings, an onyx fire surround on the decorative fireplace, a pristine refurbishment of vintage subway tiles in the bath and several examples of original stained glass make this a unique and special home. The Cornwall has bike and A/C storage and a landscaped roof deck with river views. The doorman is from 7:30 am until midnight Sunday through Thursday. On Fridays and Saturdays, he is there for the full 24 hours. There is also an excellent live in super. This unit has a washer/dryer. The Cornwall welcomes pets. There is an assessment in place of $860/mo through June 30, 2015.
