Elegant Classic-6 in Top P/W Co-op!

Details

This magnificent, Classic-6, pre-war apartment needs your touches to transform it into an amazing home! This spacious, rarely available “A” line features excellent light, three full bathrooms, oversized windows, high-ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors, and a serene atmosphere.

As you exit the elevator on the 7th floor, you are greeted with your own private landing to the only apartment on the floor.

As you enter the apartment, the scale of the rooms is stunning. You enter a large foyer, big enough for a seating cluster and more. To the right is a breathtaking living room, which can easily house a grand piano and several couches and tables. Lengths of white walls await your artwork.

Opposite the living room is a massive dining room, easily fitting a table seating 8 to 10 people. Large north and east windows allow beautiful natural light.

The kitchen lies between the dining room and living room. It is currently configured as two separate rooms; an informal seating area, and the main kitchen. This can be used as is, or it can be transformed into a wide-open country eat-in kitchen, complete with high-end appliances and a washer/dryer

Just off the seating area of the kitchen lies an extra room. This hidden treasure is your cozy guest bedroom or office, complete with its own full bathroom!

From the foyer, through a doorway, you enter a hallway that brings you to the private wing of the apartment. Don’t miss the enormous walk-in closet in the hallway!

To the right is the primary bedroom suite. Here you will find a large, windowed bathroom. This bedroom is enormous, with bright south and east exposures. You will feel like royalty waking every morning to the sunlight or the breezes entering through the generous windows. There are two large closets.

On the opposite end of the Primary bedroom is another enormous bedroom, featuring its own en suite bathroom and three gorgeous windows.

The beauty of this apartment is its flexibility. Use as is, or create the apartment you’ve always dreamed of. You can have wide open spaces (55’ wide at some points) with a large, open-concept kitchen, or create several private spaces, either bedrooms, offices, or a library.
