Description
TRULY A FLAWLESS RENOVATION A beautifully gut renovated 2 bedroom residence is available now at The Schwab House. Facing north to 74th Street with enchanting views of the cityscape and sky, these owners have spared no expense improving the infrastructure and finishes of this modern home. Designed by Alfred Wen of KSA Architects, P.C. and constructed by AlphaCraft contractors. The graciously proportioned living room accommodates both living and dining. A custom built-in wall unit provides storage, wine storage, and a buffet from which to entertain. The living room takes advantage of its sunny northern view. The windowed kitchen has every amenity one expects in a custom chef's kitchen. It was widened by 2 feet to allow for a large marble peninsula/breakfast bar made from a gorgeous Carrara marble; it provides lots of counterspace. All the appliances are Thermador; the microwave is Bosch. Custom cabinetry to the ceiling offers both 12 and 14 depths to truly maximize what can be stored. There is special pantry storage, under cabinet lighting, and hidden toe-kick drawers. If you cook this is a dream kitchen for you. If you entertain the layout allows you to be prepping in the kitchen while still engaging with your guests in the living/dining room. The bathroom has been completely renovated with beautiful tiling and finishes. The walk-in shower has special plumbing for easy access. Finishes include Dolomiti marble floors, Robern medicine cabinet with hidden outlets, Dornbracht & Aquabrass fixtures and a custom built-in storage cabinet for sundries. Each bedroom is spacious. The primary bedroom has an expanded and truly large walk-in closet with long hanging, double hanging, shelving and drawers of varying depths. The floors are absolutely gorgeous and are real hardwood throughout. There are motorized shades in all rooms with additional blackout shades in the bedrooms. Upgrades to the systems include new thru-wall AC units, recessed lighting throughout, wall channeling for cable, and the entire apartment has been rewired with new electric, ethernet and cable. The outer walls have an extra layer of soundproofing to ensure your quiet enjoyment when at home. The sellers have prepaid the current capital assessment which is intended to replenish the building's reserve fund and fund capital projects from 2021-2026. Consequently, there is no additional cost to you as a buyer for this work that the cooperative is undertaking. The Schwab House is pet friendly and the Board allows co-purchasing, guarantors and parents buying for their children. Pied-a-terres and sublets are permitted. Amenities include a garage on site with excellent rates for shareholders and their guests, two rooftop terraces, abundant storage, bike rooms, gym, 2 laundries, a dry cleaner and a multi-purpose room most often used as a children's play area. There are currently 636 apartments as well as some commercial space and two entrances to the building, each with a doorman and its own set of manned elevators. In all of the 26 years I have sold real estate seldom have I represented a home so beautifully and thoughtfully conceived. It truly is in move-in condition. For the discerning buyer who wants to move-in to their next home effortlessly.
