Paris in New York! Move right into this incredibly special oversized one bedroom with a large private terrace. This unique prewar home is in excellent condition and has an abundance of old world charm including 10'6" ceilings, big windows (with tons of southern light,) herringbone hardwood floors and attractive custom moldings. The partially-opened windowed kitchen features great storage, quality appliances (including a Sub Zero fridge) and a thoughtfully designed breakfast bar. The living room has pretty treetop views over West 73rd Street and is graciously scaled to provide plenty of space for a large dining table and a separate living area. Tucked away from the living room is the bedroom with two huge closets (1 giant windowed walk-in) and the most special terrace with classic iron railings and plenty of space to enjoy outdoor living in the heart of the Upper West Side. With an electric retractable awning and plenty of space to spread out, the terrace is like an additional room and a peaceful oasis away from the hustle and bustle of everyday city life. Other details include a white-clad bathroom with a claw foot tub and a heated towel rack, a proper entry foyer, lots of bookcases and built-ins, great closets, recessed lighting, plantation shutters and a washer/dryer hook-up.
