Property Description
Nestled high above Windsor Terrace in the neighborhood's most prestigious, impeccably preserved co-op building, is a lovely top floor 2-bedroom, 1 bath apartment that has been converted into a 3 bedroom brimming with charming pre-war details. Upon entering, you will be greeted by an oversized foyer large enough to accommodate a home office or dining room for 6. The sizable kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream with a considerable amount of counter space, an abundance of tall cabinets and pantry for ample storage options. It's equipped with stainless steel appliances including a French double-door refrigerator, large stove, farmhouse sink and dishwasher. The built-in banquette which serves as a breakfast nook as well as a peninsula with stools providing versatile dining options. The Living Room is expansive and enjoys wonderful natural light throughout the day courtesy of its southeast exposure. The room's arch doorway, high ceilings, original hardwood floors, and crown molding create an inviting ambiance. The spacious Primary Bedroom is a tranquil retreat with its two large windows that bathe the room in natural light and offer stunning sunset views. Talk about dream closets! There's a custom floor to ceiling double closet and another deep closet as well. There are 3 additional large closets in the hallway including a cedar closet. The sunny Secondary Bedroom currently set up as a teen retreat is large enough to accommodate a full-size bed and study set, and the Guest Room is perfect for hosting visitors or as an alternate home office. Both rooms feature such charming detail as original molding, hard wood floors, and high ceilings. All 3 rooms have incredible expansive western views that include the twinkling lights of the Verrazano Bridge. Originally designed as a 2 bedroom, this apartment has been converted into a 3 bedroom (see floorplans and virtually staged photos) and can easily be restored to its original layout without requiring any structural work. The unique size and layout of this apartment offer flexibility, only limited by your imagination. The bathroom has been thoughtfully renovated, the use of black and white tiles, the updated shower closet and deep soaking tub are a nod to the past. Yet the modern fixtures marry the style of the 1920's with the luxury of 2026. The Continental, known by locals as The Castle building, is Windsor Terrace's most coveted address. The building recently renovated its grand lobby and common areas. Fiscally sound, the building has no underlying mortgage and offers low maintenance. No Flip Tax, no Pied a terre allowed, limited subletting by board approval, and pet friendly! Current Assessment of $358 is offset by a Tax Abatement of $280 for this apt. Assessment reduced from July - Dec 1 to $287. Amenities include resident super, 2 elevators, porters, newly renovated multi machine laundry room, beautifully landscaped courtyard, bike room and storage (wait list).
