Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Serhant.
Prewar details, a fireplace and 22 new Anderson windows give this two-bedroom duplex condo at 555 West 149th Street its character across 1,967 square feet. The home splits into two levels, and each one has a clear job.
The lower level is fully finished. Its ceilings are 10 feet high, and the room has custom recessed lighting, a wet bar built to order, ceramic floor tile and a full bath with a stand-up shower. A customized gym space sits down here too, and the listing also describes a home office, so the level can handle fitness, lounge space or work. I'd walk it first to see how those uses fit together.
A spa-inspired bathroom uses Calacatta marble in a single slab, with a herringbone marble shower, a heated towel rack and a Carrera vanity. The secondary bedroom fits a queen-size bed comfortably, and the dining area, dishwasher and central air conditioning add to everyday ease. A Samsung washer and dryer are included in the apartment, so you won't need to leave the unit for laundry.
The east-facing private garden is the outdoor space to see. It has 24x24 wood flooring, Trex fencing, outdoor heating and electrical outlets, which stretches its use past warm weather. Private outdoor space is a meaningful amenity in Manhattan, and this one is over 60 square feet. Because it faces east, open-horizon geometry gives about 7 hours of direct sun on the June solstice, from about 5:48 AM to 12:44 PM, though nearby buildings can block it.
Pets are allowed. The 1 train at 145 St is about 6 minutes on foot, and Riverside Park is about 4 minutes away. Key Food is about 5 minutes away for groceries, and Harlem Public and Chipped Cup Coffee & Victuals are each about 1 minute away.
