Lincoln Towers at 140 West End Ave. #7B

This 2 BR home was converted from an oversized 1,000+ sf one bedroom with an alcove to accommodate family living at an affordable price. Even more interesting is the removable third sleeping space that has been creatively added. Leave it as it is, scale it back a bit and use it as a comfortable 2 BR or a 1 BR with an office, or even return it to its original 1 BR configuration with an enormous living area — the flexibility and choices here are boundless.

A graceful entry foyer introduces you to the space, and leads to the expanded kitchen, which has been opened and even has a breakfast bar for a quick bite. The bath has been upgraded, and the closet space is generous. The crowning jewel, though, is the peaceful, 70+ sf terrace overlooking the trees and gardens of the Lincoln Towers courtyards, a great place to start with your morning coffee, enjoy a cocktail at the end of the day, or just relax and maybe chill with a good book.

Less than a five minute walk from Lincoln Center and steps to Central and Riverside Parks, the apartment is in a full-service, white-glove building with all of the amenities. The Lincoln Towers campus abounds with quiet sitting areas, gardens and private parks, basketball and pickleball courts, picnic tables and wonderful playgrounds. There is also easy access to all transportation, great shops, restaurants, and culture. Utilities are included in the maintenance, and the apartment is in the PS 199 school zone. There is a capital contribution of $91.50/month.
