Amazingly light-filled, classic brownstone charmer. Although numbered 1B, this true one-bedroom with a huge bonus loft is not on the ground floor but the SECOND floor, facing southwest over a peaceful sunny garden. Check out the video! Exposed brick. Eleven-foot ceilings. Four-ft Zen loft perfect for a den, storage, or sleeping. Quiet bedroom. Open kitchen. Easy dishwasher installation. Shiny laid wood floors. Friendly super. Easy access to crosstown and downtown transportation, and only a half-block to Riverside park. You can even install your own washer-dryer or dishwasher with usual board approval. Just perfect! A verdant street right off the Riverside Park, 304 West 88th is the quintessential Upper West Side boutique coop with a basement laundry, liberal pet policy, and case by case acceptance of co-purchasers, guarantors, subletting after 2 years, and second-home (pied-a-terre) use. This is the one.
