91 Payson Ave. #6J

OFFER ACCEPTED. This generously large 1-bedroom apartment has full western exposures bringing in light all day. The apartment features high ceilings, a spacious sunken living room as well as a large formal dining room. Original pre-war details include herringbone floors, picture frame moulding, wrought iron railings, original doorknobs, and a distinctive Art Deco lobby. There is ample storage space for a 1-bedroom with four large closets in addition to a linen closet. The foyer is large enough to double as a dining space and features 3 of the large closets. The bathroom contains a classic tub and a separate walk-in shower stall, not to mention original 1935 tile. The building is pet friendly, has two elevators, a laundry room, a storage facility, a live-in super (who signs for packages and deliveries), and its own parking lot. It is a 3-minute walk to the A-Train Express and a 10-minute walk to the 1-Train. Manhattan’s last nature preserve, Inwood Hill Park, is directly across the street, so views of a beautiful old-growth forest fill every window, year-round, making Payson Avenue a quiet street to live on. Nonetheless, shopping, dining, and services along Dyckman Street and Broadway are just around the corner; it is a five-minute walk to waterfront dining and there are close to a dozen restaurants within three blocks. Inwood Hill Park, one of the largest parks in Manhattan, offers tennis courts, basketball courts, baseball fields, soccer fields, childrens’ playgrounds, trails for hiking and biking, and waterfront paths. Fort Tryon Park and the Cloisters are just a few blocks south, as is Manhattan Greenway, a bike path which follows the Hudson River all the way down to Battery Park.
