Property Details
Description
This north-facing pre-war one-bedroom seamlessly combines charm, modern updates, and a prime Upper West Side location. When you walk into the apartment, you're welcomed by a spacious living room filled with natural reflective sunlight. A decorative fireplace, a corner closet, and an elegant arched entryway to the kitchen add classic pre-war character to the space. All window treatments feature custom Hunter Douglas Roman shades. The bedroom comfortably fits a queen-sized bed and offers two north-facing windows with blackout shades, along with two large floor-to-ceiling closets that can be combined for extra storage. The thoughtfully designed, windowed kitchen has two stone countertops—one with a large sink and the other providing ample prep space beneath sleek cabinetry. It’s equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, a Frigidaire dishwasher, a microwave, and an oven. A tiled bathroom with a soaking tub and dual-flush toilet completes the interior, which is further enhanced by high ceilings and refinished hardwood floors. Built in 1925, the pet-friendly Leola offers below-market maintenance fees, an updated lobby, a shared patio, storage, and bike room options in the basement. Washer/dryer installations are permitted with board approval, and subletting is allowed after one year for added flexibility. The building’s vibrant community, led by the 104th Street Association, hosts an annual block party and provides private block security. Location is everything, and this home delivers. Both Riverside Park and Central Park are close by, along with the 1, 2 & 3 subway lines. The neighborhood is full of energy and convenience, with Columbia University, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Westside Market, and Equinox nearby. Whether you're drawn to the architectural charm, the prime location, or the lively community, this home offers the quintessential Upper West Side lifestyle.
