Prime UWS: Beach Chic, Pre-war 1 Bedroom with Open Views

Set on a high floor of a classic pre-war coop, this bright and renovated one-bedroom corner apartment is move-in ready. With a chic blend of modern and pre-war elements, this home is in a highly sought-after, investor-friendly doorman building, on a prime block that could not be more convenient to all the best features of the Upper West Side.

Spacious rooms feature tons of natural light streaming in via large picture windows with dual north and west exposures. The home was completely renovated by the current owner, with a modern beach chic design that blends pristine whitewashed floors with original period details like the 10.5-foot high beamed ceiling, original moldings and crystal doorknobs, crystal chandeliers and arched doorways. The large and elegant living room provides open city views, and the king-sized bedroom includes a generous walk-in closet. The newly renovated and windowed bathroom features top-of-the-line fixtures, while the Pullman kitchen is also newly renovated, and thoughtfully designed to maximize functionality.

Built as a hotel in 1913, The Berkeley is a grand prewar building with a doorman, three elevators and a live-in super. Ideally located on one of the Upper West Side’s most desirable blocks, you are just steps from Central Park, Fairway Market, Trader Joe’s, the Beacon Theater and Riverside Park. The 2/3 express train is just one short block away, making anywhere in Manhattan accessible within minutes.

This is a unique coop offering that is even more investor-friendly than many condos, allowing for immediate subletting with no residency requirements or limits on duration, via an easy board process with minimal fees. This makes for a perfect investment property, pied-a-terre, or purchase for your children. 80% financing is available through a preferred lender for primary residence homebuyers; other alternatives may also be available. Full analysis of the investment potential is available upon request.
