Property Description
This oversized pre-war one-bedroom offers exceptional value on the Upper West Side, with remarkably low monthlies made possible by a long-running tax abatement in place through 2041. Set on the eighth floor of The Hopkins, a full-service, pet-friendly condominium, the home delivers bright, comfortable living in one of the neighborhood's most desirable locations. A proper entry foyer with two closets creates a gracious arrival and leads into a spacious living room with plenty of room for dining and a home workspace. Eight oversized windows bring natural light into every corner, while wide-plank oak floors, high ceilings, and original beams highlight the home's pre-war charm. The windowed kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, abundant cabinetry, and a generous pantry-offering storage and functionality rarely found in a one-bedroom. The newly renovated, windowed bathroom with a soaking tub adds modern comfort. The king-size bedroom enjoys double exposures and ample closet space, making it a bright yet tranquil retreat. Residents of The Hopkins benefit from a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, laundry room, bike storage, and common storage. Washer/dryers are also allowed in unit with board approval. Outside your door, you're moments from Central Park, the Museum of Natural History, Zabar's, Trader Joe's, and the UWS's best cafés, restaurants, and markets, with the 1/B/C trains, 79th Street crosstown bus, and Citi Bike all close by. With low monthlies driven by the long-term tax abatement, classic pre-war character, and a truly unbeatable Upper West Side address, this home stands out for both lifestyle and long-term value.
