A Treasured Place in the City!

With its delightful layout, this renovated Washington Heights apartment invites you on a journey of discovery. The first floor unit with its expansive exposure to light and trees, is positioned toward the rear of the building where it’s especially quiet. A roomy foyer is the starting point, with a hallway winding through the sublime treasure hunt. Gleaming coffee-colored hardwood floors run throughout the city home, complemented by white walls, classic crown molding, baseboards, panel doors and lovely window frames.
The two bedrooms are positioned at opposite ends for maximum privacy. The first is on your right, with twin deep-set windows, a large closet and a fun corner nook. Continuing along, you’ll come to a beautifully remodeled kitchen with tile floors, a window, black granite counters, stainless steel appliances, pantry and white designer cabinetry with brushed metal knobs.

The anteroom by the kitchen will certainly accommodate a table, but you may wish to bring meals into the adjacent living room instead. This large and welcoming space has recessed lighting and two oversized windows offering wonderful leafy views. It’s the perfect hub for meals, relaxing and entertaining. A generously sized back bedroom with window and closet could also serve as an office or library.
A meticulously refinished bathroom is at the end of the hall with wall-to-wall white tiling, a pedestal sink and a soaking tub/shower combo with handheld spray attachment. There’s even a stacked washer and dryer tucked neatly into a closet, a bonus luxury to be sure.

Originally delivered in 1920, the elegant six-story building in the Audubon Park Historic District has more recently been converted to condos. The grand lobby is emblematic of a long-ago era; there’s a live-in super as well, plus elevator service and onsite laundry.

You’ll be on a tree-lined street with an easy stroll to Riverside Park and the scenic waterfront. Equally close is Broadway with uptown bars and restaurants, and the 157 Street Station on the 1 line. Location, convenience and a fabulous floorplan all come together perfectly
