Spectacular Condo at the Salem House. Spacious alcove studio with a deep full alcove that can easily be separated if desired.

The space is grand for a studio with a wall of windows facing north over a quiet street.

There are several large closets far exceeding expectations in for storage in a studio. the bathroom has been freshly tiled with a new glass shower door added. The kitchen is a clean functional space separate from the space so you aren’t cooking in the room.

The building is an amazing condo with low monthly taxes and common charges making it a great value for owners with 24 hour doorman, an awe inspiring roof deck, garage, bike storage and regular storage available as well as laundry in the building.

The Salem House is surrounded by some of the best restaurants and shops on the UES and is nearby the Carl Shultz Park, the East River Promenade, Central Park and a pool at John Jay Park.
