107 W 86TH Street #11AB

Location, light, and space! This gracious, bright three-bedroom home with three exposures is a rare find in the heart of the Upper West Side. Among the apartment's many attributes are the well-proportioned foyer, the loft-like configuration of the living/dining area, and prewar details that include beamed 9 foot ceilings, beautiful oak floors, and vintage glass door hardware. Each of the apartment's three oversized bedrooms is filled with natural light from southern-facing windows that offer open city views. Eight closets throughout the apartment offer an impressive amount of floor to ceiling storage. The two full and one half bathrooms are all windowed and updated, one with a console sink with nickel finishes and soaking tub and another with a sought-after original 6 foot tub and pedestal sink. The powder room is tastefully appointed. The cook's kitchen has a large western-facing window, stainless steel appliances, and significant cabinet space. Apartment 11A/B has a home office large enough to accommodate a desk, book cases, and reading area, and a windowed laundry room with a washer, gas dryer, sink, and ample storage space. Gas and electric included are included in the maintenance fee. Residents love 107 West 86th Street, a meticulously managed and maintained boutique building. Amenities include a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, handyman, bike room, central laundry room, storage bins, composting bins, and electronics recycling. Pets are welcome. This very efficient co-op has converted heating from oil to gas, and completed a yearlong gas line replacement; the assessment for it has been paid off. And of course, with its location--just in from Columbus Avenue and one block from Central Park--there is easy access to public transportation, museums, and the broad variety of excellent restaurants, cafes, and shops that make the neighborhood so inviting.
