Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Christies International Real Estate New York.
Charing Cross House is a co-op with a full-time doorman, an elevator, a gym, two laundry rooms and bike storage. A full-time doorman takes deliveries and guests off your plate, and the elevator matters when you're bringing groceries or furniture up to the apartment.
Unit 11E is a two-bedroom, two-bathroom corner home with city and skyline views, and its panoramic outlook adds to them. The windowed chef's kitchen comes from a recent, high-end gut renovation. It has quartzite countertops and a tile backsplash, with custom cabinetry. The appliances are a Wolf range, a Thermador refrigerator, a Miele dishwasher and a Dacor microwave.
The apartment has south- and west-facing windows, so those windows are the main source of light. On an open horizon, a south-facing window gets about 8.5 hours of direct sun on the winter solstice, and a west-facing one gets about 3.6 hours. Nearby buildings can block that, so it's worth seeing the rooms at different times of day.
Both bedrooms have new wide-plank oak floors and easily take king-size beds. The living room floors have been refinished. New interior doors and designer lighting are part of the work, along with custom window treatments and distinctive wallcoverings.
The 72nd Street Q station is about one minute on foot, and the 6 at 68 St-Hunter College is about eight minutes away. St. Catherine's Park is about six minutes away, and a Morton Williams supermarket is about three minutes.
Co-op buyers should plan around the board early. The building permits 75% financing and has a 2% flip tax, and pets are allowed subject to board approval, so those terms belong in your first conversations.
