35 West 54th St. #PH10

There is nothing else like this in Manhattan. A full floor loft-like penthouse with 14 foot ceilings, skylights stretching across its enormous living room, a glassed-in dining room, a wrap terrace, wood-burning fireplace, all make this a true find. Gloria Vanderbilt once lived here. It is truly unique, but there is work to be done to bring it up to snuff. Currently configured as a one bedroom with two full baths, a second bedroom could easily be carved out of the grand living room. This lovely Beaux Arts limestone building was built in 1920 and was once part of a row of townhouses on West 54th Street, across the street from the Museum of Modern Art, a desirable and convenient location to all that New York has to offer.A keyed elevator goes directly into the apartment. Laundry and storage are in the basement, although a washer/dryer may be allowed in the apartment with board permission. Pets are welcome as well as pied-a-terres and foreign purchasers. This is foreclosure sale.
