Welcome to Apartment 8L, a generously proportioned one-bedroom, one-bathroom home with stunning eastern and southern exposures. This bright and inviting residence offers an expansive layout, elegant details, and remarkable versatility.
The gracious entry foyer leads into an impressive living room, measuring 21'8" x 12'1", adorned with two south-facing windows. This spacious area comfortably accommodates a full living room setup, entertainment area, and a formal dining space, making it perfect for relaxing and hosting guests.
The corner bedroom, bathed in natural light from its eastern and southern exposures, offers ample space for a king-sized bed and a separate seating area or home office. Adjacent to the bedroom, the windowed bathroom serves as both a private retreat and a convenient guest powder room when entertaining.
The oversized eat-in kitchen, measuring 11'5" x 13'1", is a chef’s dream, equipped with full-sized appliances, including a dishwasher. This versatile space is ideal for casual dining and even accommodates a secondary home office.
For those seeking additional functionality, other "L" line apartments in the building have successfully converted the eat-in kitchen into a second bedroom by relocating the kitchen to the spacious entry foyer (see alternate floor plan).
Additional features of this exquisite home include beautiful oak hardwood floors, high beamed ceilings, and through-the-wall HVAC units for year-round comfort.
