description

Firmly ensconced at the core and beating heart of the Big Apple, is a marvelous alcove studio gem. Located directly across from the magnificent Central Park, more than a home or "pied-a-terre", you will own a huge slice of the Big Apple by taking only a small bite!

This lovely alcove studio is in mint condition and offers a fully equipped separate kitchen, a marvelously renovated large bath, through the wall HVAC and beautiful hardwood floors.

Sandwiched between two beautiful parks, the Upper West Side is one of the greenest spots in Manhattan. For that reason, it is a perennial favorite. The Upper West Side is relaxed, but never dull. There are plenty of low-key bars and restaurants to frequent along Amsterdam Avenue, and Broadway is an always-bustling commercial center. The wide, tree-lined streets still boast many mom-and-pop stores. Less posh than the Upper East Side, it is more easily accessible by public transportation, and real estate prices are just as, if not more, expensive.
