This rarely available prewar one bed/one bath coop is located in a 5 story non elevator building, an 1894 historic landmarked townhouse style complex referred to as "The Black & Whites," on a peaceful cul-de-sac at the end of East 72nd Street. This legendary building combines the charm of the West Village with the elegance of the Upper East side. It's surrounded by two jewel size parks, one paved with cobblestones right outside the front door offering panoramic river views, and the other to the west of the building containing a waterfall. All four brick buildings have sidewalk landscaping, distinctive cherry red lacquer front doors trimmed in white with custom two toned painted brick exteriors. #3B boasts high ceilings, original hardwood floors, a fireplace that can be operational with charming bookcases flanking both sides, a generously portioned windowed kitchen, windowed bathroom, oversize windows in living and bedroom, dining or study area, partial river and treetop views, and natural sunlight streaming in year round from southern exposures in both the living and bedroom. There is an adjacent garage, live-in super, handyman, laundry room, storage room, bike room, back of building planted sitting area. Pets are allowed pending board approval. For European charm under $500,000 with a low monthly maintenance, this is surely a "must see."
