This spacious second floor one bedroom apartment showcases the best of pre-war details including but not limited to high ceilings, parquet hardwood floors, crown moldings, and generous natural light. As you enter inside, you'll first notice the separate entry foyer area leading into the large living room, which can easily accommodate both a living & dining area. As you come back into the hallway area, you'll come across the windowed galley kitchen equipped with plenty of counterspace, cabinets for all of your storage needs & stainless-steel appliances. Next, the bathroom features white tiles, a pedestal sink, & glass shower door. As you pass the capacious closet at the end of the hallway, you will come across the king-sized bedroom, which allows for any of your large furniture, two sizable windows letting in lots of natural light & is equipped with two closets perfect for ample storage space.
This well-maintained 6-story elevator building features approximately 72 units and includes desirable amenities such as on-site laundry, bike storage, voice intercom, a storage room and a responsive live-in super. Pets are allowed (with size restrictions >25 lbs). Just a short distance to the R train and to the Express Bus to Manhattan, not to mention you are nearby from 3rd avenue featuring dining, shopping, & much more. Subletting permitted after two years.
