Description

Triple Mint and Bright One-Bedroom in Prime Location!

Move right into this top floor, turn-key one-bedroom with open views and fantastic light. This bright and airy railroad style apartment has been fully transformed into a magazine-ready New York City abode, ideal for your NYC pied-a-terre or primary residence.

Nothing was spared to achieve this high-end gut renovation including beautiful white oak floors, well-thought out storage, an oversized combined LG Washer/Dryer and a beautiful bathroom with Ann Sacks tiles and a heated Toto toilet. The custom kitchen, built in Italy, features Carrera marble mosaic backsplash, high-end appliances such as a fully integrated Liebherr refrigerator and Bosch convection oven/microwave and stunning custom lighting. The spacious and inviting living room boasts a fireplace and an adjacent windowed dining room, large enough for a dinner party. The bedroom of this railroad style apartment was designed to bring to mind the nostalgia and luxury of the Golden Age of rail travel, but with 2018 high-tech additions. The bedroom?s current double sized built-in bunk beds can be removed to accommodate a queen size bed, if preferred.

All this in a pet-friendly, very lenient coop allowing a pied-a-terre, co-purchasing, purchase by parents and SUBLETTING, WITH BOARD APPROVAL, ALLOWED ON FIRST DAY OF OWNERSHIP! Easy sublet application. The apartment is four flights up, and well worth it. Centrally located on the highly desirable tree-lined block of West 16th street, and close to the West Village, Meatpacking District, High Line, Chelsea Market, great restaurants, galleries and easy access to the A,C,E, and L train entrance, as well as the 1,2 and 3 trains.
