Welcome to Apartment 5K at Garden Court, an extraordinary top-floor two-bedroom residence where authentic prewar character meets sophisticated contemporary design. From the moment you enter, the quality of the renovation and attention to detail are unmistakable. Beautiful western exposures fill the home with natural light, while rich white oak flooring, exposed brick, custom millwork and carefully selected finishes create an atmosphere of understated elegance. The gracious living and dining area is the centerpiece of the home, distinguished by dramatic 11-foot beamed ceilings, exposed brick, recessed lighting and custom built-ins. This inviting space offers a wonderful balance of architectural character and modern refinement, equally suited to relaxed living and entertaining. The beautifully appointed kitchen combines style and functionality, featuring custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a workstation sink with integrated accessories, a dedicated coffee station, filtered water and stainless-steel GE appliances. The primary bedroom is a peaceful retreat, framed by four oversized western-facing windows and complemented by a customized floor-to-ceiling closet, built-in desk and shelving. The second bedroom offers its own distinctive charm, with generous ceiling height, exposed brick and a beautiful crystal chandelier. Thoughtful enhancements throughout include smart outlets with USB connectivity, custom solar shades at every window and exceptional storage, reflecting a renovation in which no detail was overlooked.

Broker Commission Disclosure: Broker commissions are not set by law and are fully negotiable.
How working with a buyer's agent works: I work for you, not the seller. Before I show you anything, New York brokerage rules ask us to put that in writing: an agreement and a disclosure that say I work for you and negotiate on your behalf. The agreement is non-exclusive: you can work with other agents, it runs for a short fixed term we agree on, and you can end it with a note. You may attend open houses independently without an agreement. Read how it works
