Description
This tranquil residence serves as a genuine retreat from the city, offering picturesque garden views to the north, accompanied by sunlit rooms to the south. One can seamlessly move into this meticulously maintained two-bedroom, two-bathroom home and relish the peaceful atmosphere. The north-facing sun drenched living room boasts a beautiful bay window and seat, along with custom wooden bookcases and shades. Adjacent to this, one can find a separate dining area, perfect for entertaining, yet possessing the added bonus of possible enclosure, should one require a third bedroom. The updated windowed kitchen is equipped with granite countertops, a lovely tiled backsplash, ceramic tiled floors, and 42-inch custom wooden cabinetry adorned with crown moldings, offering ample storage, including pull-out shelves. This kitchen is also replete with stainless steel appliances, including an LG refrigerator with icemaker, and recessed lighting. Redone oak hardwood floors extend throughout the unit. This lovely home offers through-the-wall air conditioning, as well as a window unit in the second bedroom. Ceiling fans are displayed in each room as well. The hallway boasts a linen closet, as well as a double hanging coat closet in the entry foyer. A spacious third hallway closet is located between the two bedrooms. The primary bedroom, facing south, is filled with sunlight and includes custom cherry wooden built-ins, replete with fluted and crown moldings, as well as two additional closets, a custom built-in armoire and lovely sconces. The windowed primary bathroom is equipped with a classic pedestal sink, triple mirrored medicine cabinet, a glass-enclosed shower, ceramic tiles, and chrome fixtures. Across the hall, the second bedroom is equally bright and airy, as it also faces south. The second bathroom features a jetted tub, ceramic wall and floor tiles, chrome fixtures, and a built-in medicine cabinet. The sale of this apartment includes a dedicated storage unit located in the basement, and offered at no extra charge. This pet-friendly boutique building (only 3 units per floor) provides several amenities, including complimentary laundry downstairs (Washer/dryers are not permitted in unit) and bicycle storage, a party room/children's playroom, complete with lending library and games, an expansive courtyard with a grill, new elevator, renovated lobby, video intercom, and a live-in superintendent who assists as part-time doorman on weekday early evenings.

While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
