Property Description
A rare opportunity awaits at the coveted Watson Place Co-Op. This spacious, sun-splashed three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence offers approximately 1,574 square feet of timeless elegance and effortless comfort. Step inside to an immediate sense of light and openness. The expansive living and dining area flows seamlessly to a private balcony with serene views stretching toward Virginia and overlooking treetops and manicured gardens-creating a tranquil, park-like backdrop. The renovated chef's kitchen is both stylish and highly functional, featuring stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and generous counter space-ideal for everyday cooking and casual entertaining alike. The generous corner primary bedroom enjoys lovely exposures, including a glimpse of the cathedral, a huge closet, and a private, dedicated bath. Two additional bedrooms-one currently staged as a den and the other well-suited for guests, a home office, or a creative space-offer flexibility to suit your needs. A second hall bath and a powder room, with a coveted in-unit washer and dryer, complete the residence. This pet-friendly community features front desk service, generous storage lockers, and ample free parking. Indoor parking is available for a fee, and the monthly co-op fee covers all utilities and real estate taxes (a 20% down payment is required). Watson Place is more than a residence-it's a hidden sanctuary in the city, sharing 15 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds with the iconic Westchester Co-Op, including on-site conveniences -a dry cleaner, grocery store, and salon/barber shop -just steps from home. Perfectly located near New Mexico Avenue, Cathedral Commons, and Glover Park, Watson Place offers a rare combination of serenity, sophistication, and convenience-where city living meets garden tranquility. Fee breakdown: $186.26 Taxes+ $2342.06 Operating Expense (Includes Utilities) = $2528.32
