THE GRAMONT: A TOUCH OF PARIS ON THE UWS
Welcome to 215 West 98th St 1F at the historic Gramont. This is a rare opportunity to reside in one of NYC's most iconic buildings. Elevated above the lobby level, this beautiful, serene home will make you smile from the moment you enter. The soaring 10-ft high ceilings and oversized windows allow it to feel luxuriously peaceful, light and lovely.
The gracious, stylish foyer leads to a spacious living and dining room. The beautifully designed, open kitchen features stone countertops, rich cabinetry, a sparkly glass subway tile and mosaic backsplash and a high-end appliance package including a Bertazzoni range. The spacious bathroom offers a gorgeous mix of modern details and original cast-iron fixtures. The generously-sized bedroom has room to spare and features a magnificently carved mantel and marble hearth.
While almost every inch of space has been beautifully renovated, its gorgeous prewar details remain intact, including: skim-coated plaster walls, original moldings, and exquisite, richly-stained oak floors. Its many other features include great closet space, carefully curated light fixtures and crystal hardware.
You're located at The Gramont, which was established in 1911 and remains a beacon of Beaux-Arts architecture. It was designed by George and Edward Blum, renowned for their extravagant attention to detail. Born in Paris, the Blum brothers sought to create a building that could easily be home along the Champs Elysees. The stained-glass entrance pavilion is recessed behind a deep, landscaped courtyard and opens into a breathtakingly beautiful lobby. The Gramont is pet-friendly, has a full-time doorperson, a live in super and a dedicated support staff. Amenities include a laundry room and bike storage (upon availability).
The location couldn't be more perfect. You're nestled in the heart of prestigious Manhattan Valley, known for its magnificent turn-of-the-century architecture and peaceful tree-lined streets. You're steps away from multiple express trains, a short walk to Central and Riverside Park and all of the neighborhood's destination shops, cafes and restaurants including the original Carmine's, Jacob's Pickles, Westside Market, The Lotus Community Garden and the 97th Street Greenmarket. This combination of value, location and quality should not be missed!
