Description

Unique Over-Sized Studio with River Views

This voluminous, uniquely designed studio (formerly a one bedroom) is located in the iconic "Black and Whites" co-op. Sun-flooded with 9-foot ceilings, this spacious home is full of prewar details and creative touches. Upon entry, you are welcomed into the large 24 foot living room with a wood burning fireplace. Four picture windows provide beautiful views of the East River. The apartment has a European flare with Romanesque built-in bookshelves and thoughtful, abundant closet space. Off the living room, the bedroom alcove is intelligently designed with integrated storage. The windowed kitchen is spacious with floor-to-ceiling cabinets and plenty of counter space. High-end fixtures by the German design studio Vola add to the international aesthetic in the kitchen and bathroom.

Located at the end of a quiet Upper East Side cul-de-sac, the "Black and Whites" were built in 1894 and rebuilt with their famous fa ade in 1938 by trend-setting Harper's Bazaar editor Carmel Snow. Over the years they have been home to many notable residents including George Plimpton of the Paris Review. The co-op consists of four townhouse style buildings overlooking a cobblestone park and the vibrant East River. There are two public parks nearby as well as Sotheby's, several pre-eminent hospitals, and easy access to the Q train and multiple bus lines.
