Description

NEWLY AVAILABLE ONE BEDROOM! IT’S ALL ABOUT THE LIGHT, VIEWS, AND PRIME UWS LOCATION! Perched high on the 12th floor, this apartment is the one you’ve been waiting for: a gracious pre-war home with bright light and iconic neighborhood views, located in the heart of the upper West Side. Showings begin October 3rd. With its wall of north-facing windows, the spacious living/dining room is bathed in sunshine all day and twinkling city lights at night. Pre-war details abound, from the high beamed ceilings and entry arch to the original hardwood floors in excellent condition and picture frame wall moldings. Off the entry foyer (with walk-in closet) you will find a well-equipped and functional kitchen. In addition to abundant cabinet storage, the updated kitchen features a granite countertop, tile backsplash, Bosch range hood, and task lighting. The high-end stainless appliances, including a two-drawer Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, will bring joy to your inner chef. The generously proportioned bedroom has a large closet and space for a king bed plus other furniture. Dual exposures north and east mean gorgeous sunrises and landmark views, as well as off-street tranquility. The windowed bath is oversized and updated. 121 West 72nd Street is a 95-unit cooperative built in 1926. Well-managed and maintained, it has an attentive staff that includes full-time doormen and a resident manager. In addition to boasting one of the most beautifully landscaped and furnished roof decks around, the restored lobby is gorgeous with original architectural details. There also is a newly renovated laundry room. Pets and pied-a-terres are welcome. Conveniently centered between Central Park and Riverside Park, and a few blocks from Lincoln Center, the location is simply superb. Trader Joe’s, Fairway and Citarella are all within a few blocks, along with more dining, entertainment, and retail options than you can count. If you need to go elsewhere, easy access to the 1/2/3/B/C subway lines and 72nd Street crosstown bus makes it simple. The opportunity is now — don’t miss out!
