Quiet, super large one-bedroom in Carnegie Hill with a peaceful view of rear gardens, great storage, and, best of all, a Washer/Dryer! The quiet luxury location allows great access to Central Park and the reservoir, neighborhood restaurants and cafes including Sfoglia, Island, and Patisserie Vanessa; the cultural banquet of the 92nd Street Y, and yet can also be walk-to-work.

The apartment itself, in a 1960s elevator co-op, is both practical and pretty; it offers a king-sized bedroom with corner exposures, a charming - not small-charming, rather quaint-charming -- windowed kitchen with Caesarstone counters, a Carrara marble backsplash, and a Bosch dishwasher.

The extensive living room, 28-feet-long, offers ample space for dining as well. There is a through-the-wall A/C in the living room, as in the bedroom. The windowed bathroom has a capacious tub and comfy heated stone floors. Several closets, some with custom outfitting, and the Bosch W/D to complete the picture.

This is well-priced at $699,999 and a must-see.

The Guardsman is a full-service boutique co-op which offers an elevator, 24-hour doorman service, and allows gifting and pieds-a-terre on a case-by-case basis. Maintenance $2,111 per month. 75% financing allowed.
