Description
Style, Sophistication, Scale, Space and Serenity Set within one of Beekman's most favored prewar co-ops, this extraordinary three-bedroom, three-bathroom residence combines abundant southern light, exceptional space, and a beautifully executed renovation. With over 9-foot ceilings and generous room sizes throughout, the apartment has a wonderful sense of scale while still feeling warm and inviting. With no detail overlooked, this gracious home is ready to move into and enjoy from day one. From the moment you enter this elegant home, you immediately realize how special it is. A gracious 20-foot entry gallery welcomes you, providing the perfect setting for displaying art and featuring an oversized closet. From there, you enter the beautifully appointed, sun-splashed living room with custom built-ins.

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
