The Santa Monica, 345 West 70th Street, #3F

Pristine pre-war splendor in one of the most desired Upper West Side locations! This lovingly cared-for, corner 2 bedroom/ 1 bathroom at the sought-after Santa Monica coop is a residence to behold. Old meets new as this wonderful home seamlessly marries original pre-war details such as crown moldings, 9.5-foot ceilings and hardwood floors with thoughtful chic updates throughout. The inviting living/dining space offers ample space for both dinner parties or quiet evenings at home.

The windowed dining room is perfectly situated adjacent to the open kitchen and could easily accommodate service for 8 people. As you pass through, you’ll find the living room which has dual north and west-facing exposures. As an added bonus, the homeowner created a private home office just off the living area.

The windowed open kitchen is a chef’s dream. Oversized and bright with granite counters, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a 5 burner gas range. It is highlighted by a "too-good-to-be-true" breakfast bar with a built-in wine rack.

Both the primary and secondary bedrooms offer ample space with the larger room being able to accommodate a king-sized bed. Each are ideally tucked away at the end of a corridor so that you are assured of maximum privacy and quiet. The recently renovated bath too has a window and features old-world subway tiles, storage at every turn, a darling vanity with Lutron lighting, radiant heated stone floors, and heated towel racks.

Rounding out this lovely home is a large utility closet, a Miele washer/dryer, and perhaps most importantly some of the lowest maintenance charges for a location and coop of this stature. Amenities within the Santa Monica include: a live-in super, an ornate tiled lobby, central laundry, bike storage, and private storage facilities. This is a pet-friendly coop that allows pied-a-terres and also subletting (with board approval).

The building is perfectly situated between West End Ave and Riverside Dr with direct access to Riverside Park and the scenery of the Hudson River, not to mention an easy walk to Central Park. Trader Joe’s, Fairway, Citarella, the 72nd Street subway station, and crosstown buses are all within a radius, as are shopping, restaurants, cafes, fitness and all that Lincoln Center has to offer. This area also holds several of some of the top-ranked elementary and middle schools in New York.

Zoned for P.S. 199. Have it all, in the heart of it all.
