300 W 122ND Street 3H

Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Douglas Elliman Real Estate.

Motorized solar and blackout shades come with this 973-square-foot two-bedroom at 300 West 122nd Street, and they're the detail I'd check first. You can lower the solar shades for glare during the day and close the blackout shades fully for sleeping, which is useful in any bedroom.

The kitchen is built around a Wolf gas cooktop and convection oven, with a paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Cove dishwasher and a Summit wine fridge. Carrara marble counters sit on custom white oak cabinetry, so the surfaces and storage read as one plan. For someone who cooks often, a gas cooktop paired with a convection oven is a practical combination.

The primary bath is clad in Calacatta Eve marble on its walls and sits on Bianco Real mosaic tile underfoot. It pairs a double vanity in smoked oak with a rainfall shower and three oversized medicine cabinets for storage. The second bath uses Carrara marble and includes a deep soaking tub. Custom built-out closets and a bespoke home office with a bar and storage add to the storage. An in-unit Miele washer and dryer means laundry stays in the apartment.

300 West is a new ground-up condominium designed by Isaac & Stern Architects, with interiors by Paris Forino. The building has a concierge, an elevator and a full-time doorman, along with a year-round heated 40-foot pool, a sauna, a 3,000-square-foot roof deck with skyline and Central Park views, and a 1,600-square-foot gym. Residents also have a landscaped courtyard, a library, a playroom, a game room and bike storage. Pets are allowed.

Morningside Park is about 4 minutes on foot, and the A, B, C and D trains at 125th Street are about 5 minutes away. Lincoln Market is about 1 minute away, and the Apollo Theater is about 5 minutes on foot.
