Welcome Home! Sprawling and sun-filled, this 3-bedroom (convertible to 4), 2-bathroom home is in move-in condition and located in the coveted Audubon Park Historic District of Washington Heights! The residence enjoys triple exposures, south-facing open city views, and grandly soaring 12-foot ceilings! Beautiful sunlight streams in through the home's oversize windows, all of which were recently replaced. In addition to its three generous bedrooms, the home boasts an elegant formal dining room separated from the living room by beautiful French doors as well as a breakfast room off the kitchen, either of which could easily be used as an additional 4th bedroom. A gorgeous fireplace that harkens to the building's prewar past anchors the spacious and inviting living room. The large, updated, and windowed kitchen flaunts terrific cabinet space and a W/D! Both of the home's attractive, updated bathrooms are windowed as well, and the home is further enhanced by tremendous closet space! The icing on the cake is the exceptionally low monthly maintenance of only $788! Constructed in the early 1900's, 611 West 156th Street is an exquisite prewar elevator building with gorgeous masonry and a striking marble lobby. Building residents enjoy a live-in superintendent and a large, modernized laundry room (in-unit washer/dryers are also permitted). This is an HDFC cooperative, so income restrictions apply.
