Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
A balcony off both bedrooms gives this apartment more than 60 square feet of private outdoor space, which is a rare thing to find in a building this age. Mornings and evenings are the obvious use, and that direct access to the outdoors is the feature I'd keep near the top of the list.
Three large windows fill the open living and dining area. The kitchen has high-end appliances and a layout built for both cooking and entertaining, and the ceilings are high, which adds volume to the room. An open plan gives less separation between cooking and everything else, but in a 1,124 square foot two-bedroom it keeps the rooms feeling connected.
The bathroom tile is marble, and the tubs and showers are the part I'd test first. One bath has a deep soaking tub and the other has a rain shower, so you can pick the bath that suits the day. The apartment has its own washer and dryer and a dishwasher, which takes care of a lot of daily routine without a trip downstairs. Recessed lighting, central air and heat, hardwood floors and a private storage room complete the apartment.
The building is a four-story walk-up from 1910 with five apartments, and pets are allowed. Trader Joe's and Target are each about 1 minute away on foot, Whole Foods is about 3 minutes, and Corner Social is about 2 minutes. For transit, the 2 and 3 trains at 125th Street are about 3 minutes away, and Marcus Garvey Park is about 6 minutes on foot.
