Description

Welcome to apartment 6F, a very spacious two-bedroom, two-bath home in Westminster House, a luxury, full-service coop off Madison Avenue. This inviting apartment has a very large living/dining room, semi-open windowed kitchen with counter seating for 5, washer/dryer, hardwood floors and a built-in 50+ bottle wine cellar. Enter to the expansive 30’ foot living room with a wall of north-facing windows at the far end and a separate dining area that easily accommodates a substantial table.

The semi-open windowed kitchen, with granite countertops, has a plethora of storage and counter space along with mahogany cabinets, built-in shelving, vented Viking range, Monogram refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, Miele washer/dryer, and a sizable pantry. The bedroom hallway nicely separates the bedrooms from the entertaining space and houses a 50+ bottle wine fridge (formerly a large closet) and a full bath. At the end is the primary bedroom which has north and west windows, three massive walk-in closets, and an ensuite bath with walk-in glass shower.

The additional bedroom has a north facing window and two generously sized closets. Built in 1955, Westminster House is known for its top-notch service and prime location on the Upper East Side, across from Butterfield Market and one block from Central Park, Museum Mile and some of the most popular stores, boutiques and restaurants such as Sant Ambroeus, Sistina, Huso and Serafina. Amenities include a 24 hour doorman, concierge, live-in resident manager, roofdeck with magnificent views, laundry and bike storage.

The north and south towers connect via a picturesque indoor walkway with a recently renovated landscaped courtyard. Pets under 55 lbs and pied-a-terres are permitted with board approval. 3% flip tax
