TOP FLOOR STAND OUT - STYLISH CORNER STUNNER SOULFUL HEAD-TURNER IN PRIME, PRIZED ADDRESS In 1922, the famous architects, Schwartz & Gross, created a boutique building known for its grandly intimate scale, its comfortable and practical layouts, and its airy, light, beautiful rooms. Over one hundred years later, this upgraded heart-warmer proves that good things get better with time. With gorgeous Southeastern sunshine, and with a quiet, bright, top-floor perch in its treasured West End Avenue address, this feel-good find stands out for all the best reasons. Here, the beamed ceilings are higher, the rooms are grandly intimate, the layout is most practical, and the vibe is soulful and stylish. The foyer is sweet, and unfolds into the comfortable living room. The entertaining space is graced by big, tall, South-facing windows, and offers an ideal area for a dining space. The handsome, windowed kitchen is re-done -- a practical and pretty cook's space offering ample stone counters, good cabinet space and fresh stainless appliances. The bright and tranquil bedroom is impressively scaled and beautiful -- offering morning sunshine from the East, city views to Midtown, room for a large bed, big furniture, and a work space. This peaceful retreat has big bright windows, a wall of outfitted closets, and is served by a wonderfully renovated, classic, windowed bath with an original, restored, curved, cast-iron soaking tub. Sweetly positioned on the very top floor -- in the sunshiny, quiet, top tier of its wonderfully well-served, well-run, live-in super, West End building, this pet and pied-a-terre friendly residence -- with in-building laundry/bike/storage rooms -- is winsome in every way. With prime access to most every area cultural, dining, shopping, and fitness destination -- and with a bevy of easy transportation options and supreme access to nearby Riverside Park -- this easy-to-love and easy-to-live home is a feel-good find for sure.
