History is in the making at 48 West 105th Street, #2B. This recently renovated 3BD/2BA gem of a condo with shared balcony just one block from Central Park is exchanging hands for the first time ever since it was sold as a new development almost four decades ago. Enter this 2nd floor walk-up into an inviting foyer, large dining and living rooms with oversized windows that frame the trees, high ceilings, espresso colored hardwood floors, and crown molding. The recently renovated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher, and an in-unit washer-dryer. Bask in afternoon sunlight in the primary king-sized bedroom with West facing windows and a delightful en-suite bath. A second bedroom or office in the corner of the apartment offers views of the idyllic street below, while a 3rd North facing bedroom features a shared balcony that peeks onto Central Park. A second bathroom - windowed and fully tiled with walk-in shower and bench -- completes the well-designed space. This unique 1,112 SF corner residence is one of five units in the 3-story building. It is part of the Manhattan Valley Townhouse Condominiums conceived of by the formidable housing advocate Leah Schneider and built to reflect a mix of the stately buildings and the charming row houses that are characteristic of the richly storied Upper West Side neighborhood. Central Park will be your backyard, and iconic structures such as the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, the Frederick Douglass Memorial, and the abundant Beaux-Arts style architecture will be your canvas. Transportation is convenient with the 1 and the B/C subway lines within a stone's throw, and easily accessible bus lines such as the M104, M116, M4, M7, M10 and M11. Nearby shopping at Columbus Village and Columbus Square, a gamut of restaurants, and the Columbia University campus provide a range of shopping and entertainment options. A commercial parking garage is located across the street for long term rentals. With the impending decrease in condo inventory on the Upper West Side over the next several years, this rare apartment will be a coveted property with enduring appeal.
