decidedly downtown vibe: bright pre-war by park

handsome, high-floor, sun-kissed south-facer

how does a super prime location by riverside park — on uber-convenient west 72nd street — offer such a sweet, peaceful, residential secret like this one? how does a somewhat predictable pre-war area suddenly have amongst its offerings this rare downtown-vibing home? how is a value-forward home like this quietly positioned right here in the middle of it all? just when you thought you could not be surprised…

proudly perched high above it all, this schwartz & gross 1924 space has been lovingly designed.  The heart-warming period detail and beamed ceilings are intact, but the design and layout have a new sensibility.  A stretch-out, bright plan that makes sense for today.  The sky and city views are impressive, as is the timeless — but not-boring — soul of this feel-good find.  

enter the foyer and flow easily to the sizable open living dining space.  Big entertaining and intimate moments both happen organically here.  Served by a well-scaled, practical, attractive, windowed kitchen (with big pantry, top-shelf appliances by wolf & bosch & porcelanosa backsplash/floor), life here is easy and fun.  

the big, bright bedroom suite offers an en-suite, windowed, classic bath with a refurbished, vintage, cast-iron soaking tub, and simple — yet superlative — design (hansgrohe fixtures & porcelanosa tiles/floor).  With dual entry, the bath gives guests easy access without having to enter bedroom.  

underfoot are handsome 5” wide hardwood planks, above you ceilings are high, and all around there is light and loveliness.  Closets and storage are ample, laundry is in the building, the super is live-in, there are bike and storage rooms, and nearby are the area’s most convenient offerings.  Riverside park is practically next door, trader joe’s is up the street (+ fairway, citarella & hmart), the 1/2/3 and b/c trains are close, so is central park, as are the upper westside’s best dining, shopping, cultural, entertainment and fitness destinations.  

think you’ve seen it all on the upper west? think again.  Welcome to a decidedly downtown uptown surprise.
