329 W 85th St. is one of 5 landmarked row houses that were built between 1890-91 by well known architect Ralph S. Townsend. They are nearly identical in design and provide an architecturally rich anchor on the block between WEA/RSD. There are approximately 40 apartments in this boutique co-op which allows up to 80% financing and is pet friendly with board approval. The live-in supt. is lovingly known as the Mayor of 85th Street and residents rely on his help to accept packages, handyman tasks, and other important services. He is a well-respected member of the block community. Apt. 2A is just 1 short flight up and provides the perfect treetop view of the street. All windows face south so even on a gloomy day, it's still bright. The living room triple window is framed at the top by the original restored stained glass. The kitchen has a Miele D/W, ample cabinetry and pale green granite countertops. The bath has been updated w Waterworks accessories and has a tub with shower. The ceilings soar at just over 12' allowing for excellent storage space in both the living room and bedroom accessible by a library ladder. It's also possible to enlarge the storage space in the living room for use as a sleeping loft or home office as some have done. W/D can be added with board approval. The floors are hard wood and in excellent condition. Transportation of every kind is 2 blocks away and cabs are never a problem on WEA. Riverside Park is half a block to the west providing dog walking, running & biking convenience. Supermarkets, Zabar's, health clubs, movies, laundromat, shopping & restaurants all within 5 blocks along Broadway. Location can't be beat!
