Description

WELCOME HOME to a peaceful, sun-splashed "high floor" studio with open city views on one of the Upper West Side’s most coveted blocks.

LIVING SPACE
A roomy open-living layout masterfully converts from a living room to a bedroom, thanks to a beautifully designed convertible bed built by a brilliant Italian designer. This space is perfect for working, living, and entertaining - all in one.

The updated kitchen with abundant storage discreetly tucks away when not in use. The bathroom is timeless and classic, complete with soaking tub, porcelain tiles and pedestal sink.

Throughout this pre-war home you will enjoy 9 1/2 foot ceilings, new solid oak flooring and three large closets for all of your storage needs.

THE BUILDING
The Clifton House, located on one of the premier museum blocks of the Upper West Side, is beautifully maintained pre-war coop with a 24 hour doorman, live-in superintendent, newly renovated hallways and central laundry, bike room, storage (for a small monthly fee) and a gorgeous landscaped roof deck complete with herb and flower gardens, panoramic city views, and spectacular sunsets. Utilities (gas & electric) are included in the monthly maintenance.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Located in the sweet spot of the Upper West Side, this home is convenient to the best shopping and recreation the area has to offer. Just half a block away from the Museum of Natural History and equidistant between Central and Riverside Parks.

You’ll love being so close to multiple bus routes and the B, C & 1, 2 & 3 subway lines. Pet friendly, no flip tax, 75% financing permitted. Subletting and pieds-a-terre permitted with board approval.

This is a rare opportunity to own in a stellar building and location!
