Description

What would you do with more than 1,800 square feet of beautiful living space plus a terrace on the penultimate floor of a luxury full service building, with spectacular river views? Most people would (and in many cases have already) turned them into their forever 3 or 4 bedroom home. And you can do that here, but this owner did not. Instead she combined these contiguous 2 BR and studio apartments to create an enormous 2 BR with a grand master, and an even grander living and entertaining space.

Either option works well.

Some of he photos (with light floors and furniture) have been virtually staged to show how the apartment might work as it is currently configured. An alternate suggested floorplan as a 3 BR is also included, though it is just one suggestion, and any changes will have to be approved by your architect. That alternate plan shows a third bedroom, an expanded kitchen and a legal laundry room.

The 60 foot expanse of windows streams brilliant sunlight all day.

The 20’ terrace invites you to relax and ease into your day with your coffee and morning paper, or to cap it off with drinks or dinner against the panorama of yet another gorgeous sunset. All of this is in a full service building with gym, community room/children’s playroom, library and garage, as well as lobby access to the wonderful private, gated Lincoln Towers playground, with its acres of greenery, picnic tables, playground, and basketball and pickleball courts.

The building is perfectly located in the midst of the dynamic, lower Upper West Side, mere blocks from Lincoln Center and Central and Riverside Parks, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Zabar’s, Citarella, Magnolia Bakery and so many more cultural, entertainment, dining, shopping and transportation options.

The apartment has been priced to insure that whether or not you make any upgrades or improvements, the price per square foot of your new home will be below market. Maintenance includes utilities, and there is a capital assessment $219.83/month.
