Beautifully renovated and offering three exposures, this inviting residence at Trafalgar Court features a loft-like living, dining, and kitchen area, complemented by a separate bedroom wing for an ideal sense of privacy and separation. The gracious living and dining areas are flooded with natural light through a dramatic west-facing picture window, creating a welcoming space for both everyday living and entertaining. The living area flows seamlessly into a renovated, open windowed kitchen featuring quartz countertops, top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and generous pantry storage. Privately separated from the entertaining spaces, the bedroom wing includes a large east-facing primary bedroom with a wall of closets and an en-suite marble bath. The spacious second bedroom enjoys a coveted northwest corner exposure, while the third bedroom offers exceptional flexibility as a bedroom, guest room, or home office. A second full bath is conveniently located in the hallway. Additional highlights of this special apartment include beautiful oak floors, built-in bookcases, abundant closet space, through-the-wall air conditioning, and classic prewar details.
