Spacious, serene, and sun-filled, this south-facing two-bedroom offers an exceptional combination of generous proportions, abundant natural light, absolute quiet and remarkably low maintenance on one of the Upper West Side's most coveted blocks.
Soaring 9.5-foot ceilings and oversized, Parisian-style floor-to-ceiling double-pane windows overlook tranquil brownstone gardens, creating a rare sense of privacy, peace, and light in the heart of the UWS. The oversized living room is a true standout-graciously proportioned, pin-drop quiet, and bathed in southern sunshine throughout the day.
The renovated windowed kitchen is thoughtfully designed, with stainless steel appliances, an expansive prep area with natural stone countertops and abundant white and glass-front shaker cabinetry. A pass-through window connects the kitchen to the living room, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
The exceptionally quiet primary bedroom enjoys southern light and can comfortably accommodate a king-size bed, while the second bedroom offers remarkable flexibility. Currently outfitted with a custom Murphy bed, it can effortlessly function as a guest room, home office, nursery, library, or whatever best suits your needs. Additional features include an oversized shared connecting bathroom with excellent storage, and pristine oak hardwood floors throughout.
In-unit washer/dryers are permitted with board approval and the apartment comes with a separate dedicated storage unit and bike storage in the basement at no extra cost!
