Description

If you’re looking for a one-bedroom on the Upper West Side, but can’t give up that dream of a home filled with prewar charm, this is the one for you. Hardwood floors, high, beamed ceilings and solid plaster walls welcome you. From the gracious foyer (with two large closets) you’ll face the arched entry to the comfortably sized living room, which allows for plenty of space for relaxed seating and dining.

The bedroom is also amply sized, offering room for dreaming or working, with double exposures and charming views of 71st St. The bath and kitchen are both windowed and updated. This original Bing & Bing building is impeccably maintained, and offers a 24-hour doorman, resident manager, 24-hour laundry room, children’s play area, a gym, bin storage (waitlisted), bike storage, and a wonderful furnished roof deck with views of the Hudson. The location is hard to beat, quiet yet close to everything – Riverside and Central Parks, Lincoln Center, great shopping, dining and entertainment – with amazing transportation.

The 1, 2 & 3 trains, 5, 57, 72 & 104 buses are all within a block of this pet-friendly building you’ll be happy to call home. SORRY NO PETS
