The apartment’s expansive, thoughtful layout includes dual exposure in the open living and dining room, 10-foot ceilings, and an entry foyer with an arched doorway and built-in desk or bar area. The original hardwood floors with inlaid details, glass doorknobs, and crown, baseboard, and picture railing moldings provide character and charm.
The windowed kitchen has new butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a gas stove. The apartment is also equipped with a new washer/dryer setup.
The bathroom, also windowed, features white subway tile accented by square floor and wall tiles in a soft blue.
The large bedroom easily accommodates a king size bed and has not one, but two closets. (A walk-in closet in the foyer area provides even more storage.)
The apartment faces the rear of the building, and despite the “1” in its address, it is technically located on the second floor.
