With two exposures, and an ideal L-shape that gives you optimal flow and flexibility, the kitchen/dining/living rooms are a terrific trio for sure.

Down the hall with good closet space and ample wall-space for art are the three spacious bedrooms. Well-scaled and with generously sized closets, these rooms are bright, quiet, and comfortable. The East-facing primary bedroom has an en-suite windowed bathroom with double vanity. The other two bedrooms are South-facing, sizable, and served by their own full, classic bathroom.

Sweetly perched in the low-key, well-served, enviably located Merrion Condominium, this condo classic enjoys use of the building's roof deck, fitness room, and playroom. With most every area cultural, dining, shopping, entertainment and fitness destination within 'brag-able' proximity, and close to both Riverside and Central Parks and a plethora of convenient transportation options life here is both easy and fun.

Here, on wonderful West 88th Street, is the big, roomy, happy condo home that offers you peace, flexibility, practicality, and beauty. Here is the residence ready for you and for all of your growing needs.
