49 West 72nd St. #14CD

Step inside this seamlessly combined 2br 2ba apartment, with light streaming in all day from the six south facing windows, and you will immediately feel the comfort of home. Pre-war charm abounds, from the bordered solid wood floors to the high beamed ceilings, but this home has also been tastefully updated for modern living. The windowed bathrooms were renovated with Hansgrohe fixtures, Duravit sinks and Robern mirrored medicine cabinets, and there are marble mosaic floors in the main bathroom. The kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel countertops, custom ceiling-height cabinets, a Miele dishwasher, a 30 inch Viking cooktop and Viking convection microwave oven. Overhead ceiling fans and lights were recently installed, and there are Lutron dimmers throughout the home. Solid wood pocket doors separate the living space from the bedrooms, creating a loft-like feeling and inviting the southern light to fill the home. There is clever storage space hidden throughout the apartment, including two closets tucked behind built-in bookcases, as well as an enormous walk-in-closet in the main bedroom.

The Parkway has a part-time doorman, live-in super, in-building laundry and storage, and a bike shed. Ideally situated at Central Park’s 72nd Street entrance and Strawberry Fields and the B, C train to the East, and a block from the 1, 2, 3 trains and all the stores and restaurants Broadway and Amsterdam have to offer to the West. Satisfy your sweet tooth at Magnolia Bakery or Van Leuwen down the street, grab a glass of wine from Bin 71 or the Dakota Bar next door and a bite from Leyla (a neighborhood hidden gem), and if you don’t want to do your own laundry, you can give it to the dry cleaners downstairs to launder (who pick up and deliver). This home is zoned for PS 87, which has a dual language Spanish-English program from K-5. Pets welcome.
