Property Description
On a high floor with light pouring into every room this spacious 2BR/2BTH home has an oversized living room, huge dining area, washer/dryer and marvelous built-ins throughout. Only steps from Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and PS 6, it is a must see! Flanked by two oversized closets, the entrance gallery leads to a beautifully proportioned 14' wide living room with generous seating that sets the tone of this warm and welcoming home. The windowed kitchen has been opened to accommodate additional shelving and glass fronted cabinetry; the dining area is big enough to devote one wall to a built-in cabinet that is both service and bar area. Overall, this is a loft-like space making it ideal for entertaining, as formal or informal as you like. Part of what makes this gracious home so appealing, in addition to its many closets, is its generous split-bedroom layout. The primary bedroom has two walk-in closets, a wall of built-ins and bathroom ensuite. The second bedroom, nearly as large, has a walk-in closet as well. 120 East 81 Street is a long established, sought after cooperative, built in 1958 by architect Paul Resnick. With hallways and lobby recently renovated, it is pet friendly, has a fully equipped gym (with 3 Pelotons), individual storage, bike room and central laundry room. Shareholders enjoy the benefit of significant monthly savings through low maintenance that includes utilities and cable, and low cost garage ($373 for shareholders) easily accessible to and from the building. Is there any wonder this building is on the short list of so many?
