Description

Here is your chance to acquire a grand scale two-three bedroom, three bathroom- newly and fully renovated pre-war home with three principle rooms overlooking verdant Riverside Park. Live in one of the most peaceful enclaves of the city- amidst the river, park, and trees, yet close to all of the conveniences of the UWS.

Upon arrival you are greeted by an eight foot by thirty foot long formal entry foyer that serves as the central gallery for the private and public rooms of this exceptionally elegant home. The private bedroom wing consists of two oversized en-suite bedrooms, with beautifully renovated windowed baths, four closets, and large windows that bring the glorious landscape inside- livings in the green canopy, and your front row seat to the changing seasons.

The home was ingeniously renovated to create an over fifty-foot expanse of gracious formal living and dining space, light filled- and epically proportioned- and more than ample to accommodate grand-scale living. The stunning new kitchen was brought forward to create an open dining experience with a large quartz island, generous storage cabinets and counters- all catering to the most dedicated home chef for at-home professional level meal preparation. An ideally proportioned 14 foot long guest bedroom, or home-office suite- with a newly renovated windowed bathroom- is the ideal extra room that is so crucial today with flexible work/home living. A full size vented washer/dryer and abundant storage complete this wing of the apartment.

A remarkable home for its stunning views, soaring ceilings, gorgeous pre-war details such as crown and baseboard molding, restored solid oak floors, all perfectly laid out to create a home to enjoy for generations.
