102 West 75th St. #37

JUST LISTED….Come see this extraordinarily spacious and gorgeous sun-filled prewar one bedroom home, which truly exemplifies what it means to be on the Upper West Side…and even more specifically, the West 70s. This mint condition home features just shy of 10’ ceilings with custom recessed lighting and ceiling fans in both living room and bedroom, hardwood floors and handsome Venetian blinds. The wonderfully designed windowed kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances and provides loads of storage. Unlike other one bedrooms, you will find enormous amounts of storage and your own private gas fueled washer/dryer, which vents to the outside.

This is all in the exquisite Del Monte, built in 1892 and located on the southwest corner of tree-lined West 75th Street and Columbus Avenue. The Del Monte, which was converted to cooperative in 1985, was originally designed as a 7 story Renaissance/Romanesque Revival Style building by architect Gilbert Schellinger. In recent years, the allure of the location coupled with the shareholders efforts to create and maintain the quintessential residence, a growing number of the homes (once subdivided) are being re-combined. The shareholders underwent a renovation of the window-lit hallways and the commodious lobby, staying quite true to its original design, including the Pre-war crown moldings and a restoration of the beautiful and original historic mosaic floor. It is an elevator building with video security, live-in super, porter, bike room and laundry room. There is also some additional storage; however, there is a small waiting list. This intimate building now consists of 50 units and is located in a vibrant neighborhood just a few blocks from Central Park, Riverside Park, Fairway, Citarella, Trader Joes, Zabars, The Museum of Natural History, Lincoln Center, the 1,2,3,B & C Subway Lines, cross-town busses, the Sunday Flea Market & Farmer’s Market and all of this is along Columbus Avenues varied Shopping District with every boutique you could imagine.

Pets, pied-a-terres and guarantors are all considered on a case by case basis.
