Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Serhant.
The second bedroom has a custom Murphy bed, so the room can serve as a guest room, a home office, or both without giving up the floor. That kind of flexibility matters in a two-bedroom, and I'd show it early to anyone weighing how they'd use the space.
The living and dining area has high ceilings and oversized north and east-facing windows, and the listing describes city, skyline, river and panoramic views. The open kitchen is built around a large island and includes a full set of Gaggenau appliances and a wine refrigerator. Cooking and entertaining share one room, so there's less separation between them, but the island gives the hosting side a clear center. A formal dining room is also part of the layout.
The primary bedroom is well served for storage, with a pair of walk-in closets. Its bathroom is ensuite and includes a soaking tub, a glass-enclosed shower kept apart from the tub, and a double vanity. Custom closets run through the rest of the home, which keeps floor space open. The washer and dryer are Bosch units inside the apartment, so laundry stays at home.
Wide-plank oak flooring runs through the home, and central air is included. Staffing at the front desk is round the clock, and residents can use a gym, a lounge and a garden courtyard. The building also has a playroom, bike storage and a cold room for grocery deliveries. Pets are allowed.
Does the apartment have in-unit laundry?
Yes. The apartment has a washer and dryer in the unit, which the listing identifies as Bosch.
What amenities does the building have?
The building has a round-the-clock attended lobby, concierge, a gym, a resident lounge, a landscaped courtyard garden, a children's playroom, bike storage and cold storage for grocery deliveries. It also has an elevator.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, pets are allowed.
