Pied a Terre Perfect
Set on one of the new, super-convenient blocks in the East 70s, this bright, cheerful, terrifically scaled, mid-century residence is attractive, practical, and so easy to love.
The over-scaled living room and big bedroom are bright and comfortable. The kitchen is sizable and separate — with stone counters, stainless appliances, and a large pantry. (The kitchen may possibly be opened up to the living room.)
The handsome dining area offers a lovely bay window, and a bit of extra. This is the extra area in your extra-big home that can be transformed into a bonus guest space or office (see possible alternate plan).
With big, bright rooms, a sweet foyer, remarkably generous closet space (plus room for more), and bonus room potential, this winsome home stands out for all the right reasons.
Sweetly perched in one of its full service, pet friendly building’s coveted, jumbo 1 bedroom lines, life here is easy, flexible, and convenient. This handsome home enjoys prime access to its full service building’s treasured amenities: gym, planted roof deck with city and river views, laundry/bike/storage/package rooms, and a prized staff.
This feel-good home offers a prime location. A stone’s throw away is most every area dining, shopping, fitness, and cultural destination. Beautiful Carl Shurz Park is right up the street, and easy transportation options abound courtesy of the latest area bragging right: The supremely convenient Q train is close by.
Come home to comfort - come home to flexibility - come home and stretch out in a residence that can accommodate all of your growing needs.
(Gifting, guarantors, co-purchases, pieds aux terres, & one party buying for another welcome here on a case by case basis.)
