Welcome to this charming 2 bed/ convertible 3 bed residence that exudes warmth from the moment you enter. Boasting six large south-facing windows, providing abundant sunlight throughout the day with tranquil treetop views, this apartment is situated on one of the Upper West Side's most coveted streets. With Riverside Park as your backyard, this home is currently configured as a 2 bed (plus office)/ 1.5 bath with in-unit washer dryer, but can easily become a proper 3 bed/ 2 full bath. This home is a showcase of intricate details, from original wall moldings and casement windows to pocket doors and elegant chandeliers. The refinished hardwood floors and incredibly high ceilings create a perfect blend of beauty and functionality.
As you enter the foyer, you're greeted by a warm and inviting living room that truly embodies grand scale classic pre-war. The adjacent oversized formal dining room, which could also serve as a third bedroom (or both!), is enclosed by lovely white wooden French doors. The expansive eat-in galley kitchen features white hardwood and glass cabinetry, granite countertops, new top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances and a built-in wine cooler. The upgraded washer/dryer is neatly tucked away in a vented cubby for added convenience. A cozy breakfast nook, a half bath, and an office space, for those working from home, complete this eastern and western facing area.
This home is currently configured with two bedrooms (one with southern and one with northern views) but can easily be configured to accommodate three proper bedrooms. The primary bath showcases a large tub/shower combination and new vanity. The unit's layout provides immense flexibility to suit your needs. The building is incredibly generous and allows for kitchens and baths to be repositioned. See approved alternate floor plan to convert to a 3 bed, 2 full bath.
This 1905 pet-friendly building offers a stunning lobby (whose wall treatments are the handiwork of the Obama White House painter, Marash Elezaji), a package/stroller room, a live-in superintendent, a common laundry room, private storage and bike storage. With its prime location near all the best playgrounds in Riverside Park (Hippo, River Run, Neufeld/Elephant), fabulous dining and shopping options, as well as proximity to the 1,2 and 3 subway lines and Citibikes, this residence truly has it all. There is currently a capital improvement assessment that the sellers are absorbing.
