Rarely available and highly desirable A-line apartment in one of the Upper West Side's storied white glove art deco cooperatives. Boasting direct leafy views of Riverside Park and the Hudson River through huge picture windows, this gracious classic five apartment enjoys wonderful western sunlight and is the perfect blend of style and function. The layout is perfect for entertaining, including a lovely entry gallery opening to the sun-filled and grand sunken living room replete with charming details including beamed ceilings, custom built-ins, decorative fireplace and gorgeous herringbone floors. The generously proportioned elegant dining room with beautiful casement windows allows easy conversion to a third bedroom. The windowed kitchen has custom cabinetry, travertine countertops, and stainless steel appliances, including Thermador and Miele, and a walk-in closet which could be converted back to its original powder room or a laundry room with board approval. A private hall provides separation from the public spaces and leads to the two large bedrooms, one featuring sunny open views to the west and either of which could function as the master. There is an en-suite bathroom with stall shower and another updated tiled bathroom in the hallway which also works perfectly as a guest bathroom. Beautiful wood floors throughout, through-the-wall A/C, charming details, high ceilings, and terrific closet space complete this not-to-be-missed sophisticated home. Designed by the??famed architectural??firm of Boak & Paris in 1937, this impeccably maintained full-service building offers a 24-hour doorman, live-in building manager, private storage, central laundry, and a bike room. Pets and in-unit washer and dryers are permitted with board approval and 66% financing is allowed. No pied-a-terre. Most sought after Upper West Side location minutes from Lincoln Center and Central Park, close to every mode of transportation, and surrounded by fabulous dining and shopping.
