Description

BEFORE you contact the broker for questions or access, please read the terms of this offering carefully as it is a very unique offering and opportunity. Please note the following:

Here is your opportunity to connect with a classic prewar building that takes you back to the times of horse & buggy in Manhattan. It puts you right on the top location of Union Square Park.

The Swannanoa is a 10-story Neo-Renaissance apartment building designed by Gilbert Schellinger who was a renowned and prolific designer of residential buildings back in the late 1800’s and 1900’s.

If size matters, you may want to stop here as the apartments @ the Swannanoa are on the small side.

If being an owner in a gorgeous prewar building with a top Union Square location appeals to you, then please read on. This flat can work real well as a starter apt, pied-a-terre or primary residence. The broker's first full-time residence in the city was a studio just like this on the 4th floor and I reside full-time in this building now with my family.

Beautiful and partially renovated Flat features 9.5 ft ceiling height, four large windows, oversized walk-in closet/dressing room, AC, two quiet exposures (no view & no day light) including east and south.

Bathroom: Brand new renovation & a classic one featuring two large windows, Kohler shower body, Gerber high powered flush toilet and stylish sink/sink cabinet piece & chrome hardware. Plenty of heat/hot water and water pressure to boot.

Kitchen: Efficiency style for the busy urban types that can comfortably deemphasize the size of their kitchens. This kitchen features a GE stainless steel convection/microwave oven & a 2 burner electric cooktop. It has a half fridge.

Views/Exposures: Nothing to write home about here as the view is pretty much into brick wall. The upside is if you are looking for peace & serenity in this frenetic city of ours, you have found it as it’s quite sedate. Primary exposure here is eastern.

BEFORE you contact the broker for questions or access, please note the following:
***Parents buying with children, gifting and pied-a-terre's are permitted.
***The building is pet friendly for owners.
***Investor purchase is permitted. This unit would rent for approximately $2100 is this rental market.
