CORNER CLASSIC SIX BATHED IN SUNLIGHT

PERCHED HIGH ON THE 16TH FLOOR, this spacious and sun-filled high-floor classic 6 residence features open south city views from the living room, dining room, and all three bedrooms. The corner dining room has double exposures with the midtown skyline to the south and leafy green views of Central Park to the west.

As soon as you enter this freshly-painted residence through a gracious entrance foyer, you immediately notice the tremendous light in the apartment as well as the high beamed ceilings, decorative fireplace, and hardwood floors. The spacious bedrooms are located off their own wing and bathed in southern sunlight. The primary bedroom has an enormous walk-in closet and bathroom ensuite with double sinks and a walk-in shower. The second bathroom is off the bedroom hallway and features the cast iron tub.

Off of the dining room is the kitchen with a small third bedroom. The windowed kitchen has great storage space, counter with bar stools, and a Butler's pantry area. There is a washer/dryer and small full third bathroom. Overall the apartment needs upgrades but has been maintained very well throughout the years. There is through-the-wall air conditioning.
