Agent's Note

From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.

Costas Kondylis designed 630 1st Avenue, a 37-story condominium built in 1984 with 484 units. Apartment 20A is on the 20th floor. It's a one-bedroom of 702 square feet that has been renovated throughout. River views come from every room.

The living and dining area faces east, and the listing describes expansive eastern views from it. Sun from the east reaches this side of the apartment from about 7:41 AM until 11:14 AM in December, and from about 5:49 AM until 12:44 PM in June, roughly 6.9 hours at the summer solstice. Nearby buildings can block that sun. There's wood plank flooring throughout, with new closet doors and light fixtures.

In the kitchen, lacquer cabinetry sits with Caesarstone counters and a glass mosaic tile backsplash, and there's a dishwasher and microwave. The bedroom is large enough for a king-sized bed and has the same river views. Its closet was outfitted by California Closets, which matters if you're weighing storage.

Its renovated bath has chrome fixtures, porcelain tile and an oversized mirrored medicine cabinet. There's central air and central heating.

The building has a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a live-in superintendent and new elevators. The rooftop health club has a fitness center, an indoor pool, a Jacuzzi, a sauna, steam rooms and an indoor running track. The rooftop sundeck offers panoramic city and river views. There are also laundry facilities, storage, bike storage, valet service and an attached parking garage.

The Grand Central-42 St station on the 7 is about 12 minutes on foot. St. Vartan Park is about 1 minute away and the East River Esplanade about 2 minutes, so the waterfront's a short walk. Gristedes is about 6 minutes away on foot.
