This huge studio is one of the few at the Parc Vendome that can be easily converted into a comfortable one-bedroom home or enjoyed in its present open, loft-like configuration. It has an elegant, flexible layout with an entry foyer large enough to accommodate a home office or dining area. There is a separate, updated windowed kitchen; ample closet space (including a walk-in closet/dressing room) and pre-war details such as beamed ceilings and hardwood plank floors. Fabulous over-sized casement windows face south, and on the third floor are perfectly situated for an expansive view of the tranquility of the condominium's award-winning French garden. The vintage bathroom features the original iconic black & white tile floor, subway tile and cast-iron soaking tub. The Parc Vendome is a full-service pre-war condominium rich in both indoor and outdoor amenities. In addition to the exquisite garden there are two roof decks with outstanding views, as well as 10,000 square feet of indoor amenities that include library, billiards, piano, dining and banquet rooms. The condominium is superbly located close to Central Park, Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, MoMA, the Theater District, Whole Foods, and a wide variety of great restaurants and shopping. The new supertall buildings in the area are adding value and services to this already desirable neighborhood. Transportation is extremely convenient, with multiple subway and bus lines. COMMON CHARGES INCLUDE GAS, ELECTRICITY, WATER & HEAT. Taxes are shown without any reduction for government-issued STAR rebates or condo abatements of up to about 20% enjoyed by most owner-residents, for which a purchaser may be eligible. The monthly capital improvement assessment of $78.68 has been ongoing. Investor-friendly; short-term leases are permitted. Pets are welcome.
