Contract Signed. UPTOWN ELEGANCE MEETS DOWNTOWN CHIC
Elegantly renovated, hip and charming, this prewar home features exposed brick walls, a large square dining foyer and a generous sunken living room. The living space has been cleverly divided by using French doors to create a “second bedroom” which could also easily be used as a den or a home office. A transom installed above the doors allows for abundant sunshine and beautiful, natural light. The windowed, eat in kitchen boasts top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, and is big enough to accommodate a table and chairs. There is also a custom built granite breakfast bar with fantastic shelving above. The light wood cabinets have glass insets and granite countertops. The newly renovated windowed marble bathroom is spacious and well-appointed, and the master bedroom easily accommodates a king size bed. The apartment faces South, and has wonderful light throughout the day. The location is superb, with easy access to the Second Avenue Subway, and steps away from Carl Schurz Park, one of New York’s hidden treasures; host to Gracie Mansion, the Mayor’s official residence, basketball courts, playgrounds, two dog runs and adjacent to the promenade with its beautiful vista of the East River. The neighborhood additionally offers some of the best schools in New York City. There is a part-time doorman on duty 7 days per week and a live-in resident manager. A storage bin transfers with the apartment. The building allows pets, pieds-a-terre, sublets and 75% financing. There is a 2% flip tax payable by the seller.
