Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.
A private balcony opens from either bedroom in this two-bedroom, two-bath co-op at 128 West 70th Street, and the kitchen is open to the living space. The kitchen has a gas cooktop, stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher and a refrigerator. The living area has chandeliers, a skylight and exposed brick, and the home has hardwood floors.
The listing describes southern exposures. On the winter solstice, a south window gets about 8.5 hours of direct sun, from 7:41 AM to 4:07 PM, and about 10 hours at the spring and fall equinoxes. Those figures assume an open horizon, and nearby buildings can block some of that light.
The primary bedroom has a custom closet, and both bathrooms have been updated. In-unit laundry is one of those everyday conveniences that's easy to take for granted until you don't have it, and this apartment has a washer and dryer inside. Central air is included too.
Outside, the balcony is one option, and rooftop access leads to a private roof deck, so the home has two places to sit outdoors.
Central Park is about 6 minutes on foot, and the 72 St station on the 1, 2 and 3 lines is about 4 minutes away. Morton Williams is about 2 minutes away, and Strand Bookstore is about 1 minute. The building is a four-story walk-up with ten units, built in 1883 and within the Upper West Side / Central Park West Historic District.
