Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Corcoran Group.
Miele appliances and Smallbone of Devizes cabinetry anchor the kitchen, and the apartment has its own washer and dryer, so routine chores stay inside. I'd count that as a real advantage for anyone who cooks most nights.
At 1,897 square feet, the residence has two bedrooms and three bathrooms. Walk-in closets and a dining area give the layout structure, and high ceilings add volume to the main rooms, which makes the space easier to furnish without it feeling crowded.
The listing describes south and east exposures, with corner living and dining areas framed by glass. In spring, a south-facing window can get direct sun from about 8:04 AM to 6:02 PM, roughly 10 hours on an open horizon, though nearby buildings can block it. In summer, the east side gets direct sun from about 5:49 AM to 12:44 PM. If you visit in winter, see the living room around 3 PM, while the south windows are still in sun.
The building has a concierge, an elevator, a gym, an indoor pool, a spa, a sauna, a steam room, a game room and a roof deck. There's also a bike room, cold storage, storage space and laundry in the building, and pets are allowed.
Central Park is about 3 minutes away on foot, and the N, Q, R and W trains at 57 St-7 Av are about 2 minutes away. Morton Williams is about 3 minutes away for groceries.
