Property Summary
Description
SPONSOR UNIT, NO BOARD APPROVAL, UNLIMITED SUBLET POLICY Own a piece of history in the landmarked Wilbraham in Flatiron, enjoyed each day in a rare, oversized corner one-bedroom apartment that just underwent a major renovation/restoration! This stunning mint-condition home is a modern dream come true on the 3rd floor of a strikingly beautiful Romanesque Revival-style building, graced by rock-faced stonework and intricately-carved stone detail. Beautiful original details are still intact, adding beauty and charm to this special 19th-century home. Soaring 11+-foot ceilings and oversized south and east-facing windows (2 in the living room and 5 in the bedroom!) further enhance the ambiance, lending airiness and excellent light. The grand layout exudes spaciousness and comfort with a huge 17'6? x 19' living room for entertaining, and a 17'8? x 15'9? corner bedroom with a decorative fireplace and en-suite windowed bath. Culinary creations are inspired in the open California-style kitchen with wood cabinetry, granite counters and stainless steel appliances. Two large walk-in closets plus a coat closet in the entry foyer satisfy your storage needs. ??Built in 1890 by the prominent Scottish-American jeweler William Moir, the 38-unit Wilbraham stands eight stately stories under a verdigris copper-covered mansard roof. This treasured prewar residence greets you with an elegant lobby adorned with the original molding and cast iron staircase. There's also an elevator and laundry room for your convenience. Hallways in this extremely well-maintained building were remodeled and upgraded in 2014. The outstanding location is at the crossroads of Flatiron, Chelsea and Midtown, near multiple subway lines, shops and restaurants. The allowance of pied-a-terres and an UNLIMITED SUBLET POLICY (from day one of ownership) makes this an attractive unit for investors.?
