A great opportunity to own at the fabulous Galleria Condominium; this renovated spacious studio feels like a one-bedroom home as it has it all!! Upon entering the apartment, the first thing you will notice is how spacious this south facing studio is. The space has been intelligently designed and renovated to create the different areas, so it feels like a one-bedroom apartment. The brilliant architect created all the different areas using a beautiful combination of glass walls and glass blocks. The perfectly conceived floorplan includes: a spacious living room by the windows, a large and efficient home office with shelves and storage to accommodate your book collection and files, a cozy dining area conveniently located right off the kitchen, and a super comfortable queen size sleeping area that can be completely closed-in for privacy. The kitchen is spacious and efficient. It has a fridge, a stove, a dish washer, a toaster, a microwave and even a clothes dryer. The off-white full marble bathroom is bright and is in great shape. This home has many other special qualities. Starting with the fact that it is quiet and there are great walls for art. There is great storage; including a large coat closet, 2 fitted wall closets with wood drawers and shelves and a great walk-in closet. Even though this is not a view apartment it gets good light from its southern exposure. The great oversized windows face a beautiful pre-war building with great architectural details from a different era; when looking at it you will feel like you are somewhere in Europe. This home is perfect as either an awesome full-time residence or as an ideal pied-a-terre. The Galleria is an excellent white glove condominium building located between Park Avenue and Lexington Avenue on 57th Street, only few minutes away from Central Park. The building provides five stars service including 24-hour doormen, valet service, concierge, and room service. Its unique and distinctive residential lobby features a soaring eight story atrium and is adorned with elegant wall hangings and orchids. The 54th Floor sky lounge and roof deck is an inviting retreat for residents to enjoy the fireplace and spectacular open views of Central Park and the city in every direction. The Sky Lounge has tea and coffee service and the butler will be happy to serve you and your guests your “BYOB” bottle of wine or champagne. A fully-equipped gym with high quality equipment is located on the 19th Floor as well as the laundry room. A parking garage on site is accessible directly from the ground floor with a separate elevator. The location is second to none. It is just a few blocks from Central Park, fabulous shopping, fine dining, transportation, and many cultural venues. The business district is also a short distance away.
