Description
Home for over three decades to an accomplished composer and longtime music associate and biographer of Leonard Bernstein, Apartment 2EF is an airy abode with southern exposures, windows in every room and bathroom, and so quiet you can almost hear its ... history (if only these walls could ... sing!) - this apartment is as versatile as it is comfortable. Large, elegantly proportioned master bedroom with en suite bathroom, generous second bedroom and bath, plus adjoining studio apartment ... accessible from inside the main apartment or through its own hallway entrance. Add a sizeable living room and a multitude of closets - and you have the basis for gracious living, indeed. Built in 1911, the Dorset is a 12-story, 66-unit domicile in Italian Renaissance style, and includes a facade with wrought iron Juliet balconies and fine masonry detail, lovely landscaped roof deck, communal "backyard," part-time doorman, live-in super and storage facilities. Everything you need to enjoy one of Manhattan's best locations. Now ready for a loving revival, Apartment 2EF is an empty stage - the perfect blank page - on which to renovate ... and write your own new west side story. CONTRACT SIGNED.
