Original details such as a decorative fireplace with a marble mantle and original metal entry doors are complemented by custom upgrades including California closets, built-in storage, and finely crafted wood radiator covers.

Natural light fills the home through windows in every room, including the kitchen and all bathrooms. The layout is both practical and refined, with a spacious primary suite and two additional well-proportioned bedrooms. Additional conveniences include in-wall air conditioning, a linen closet, cable hookups in two bedrooms and the living room, and dimmer switches in the kitchen, foyer, primary bath, and two bedrooms.

The eat-in kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, complete with a center island with a marble countertop, lava stone countertops, custom wood cabinetry, under-cabinet lighting, and abundant storage including a large pantry closet.

Positioned near Madison Square Park and its playground, the location offers exceptional convenience with access to multiple subway lines, Grand Central, Penn Station, the PATH, and major routes in and out of the city.
