Spacious Carnegie Hill classic six with wood burning fireplace, 10.3 foot ceilings, and low maintenance now available for sale. Currently in its original configuration as a two bedroom, two bath home with formal dining room, sitting room, and staff room, it can easily become a three bedroom with eat in kitchen or, if needed, a four bedroom abode. Great bones and tremendous potential make this property a must see.
You enter 5D to a foyer with large walk in closet and then proceed down a hall to the cozy sitting room (possible dining room) with working wood burning fireplace. From there you can continue to the north facing living room with views over 90th Street and Lexington Avenue. Next to the living room is a large windowed bath and primary bedroom. The primary bedroom has double exposure windows and lots of natural light. The second bedroom is across from the bath and currently accessible from the vestibule or the dining room. With the kitchen bathroom reoriented toward the dining room, the dining room easily converts to a large primary bedroom with ensuite bath. Adjacent to the dining room is the pantry and kitchen. The kitchen needs updating but washer and dryer are already installed. Beyond the kitchen is the staff room which could be incorporated to create an eat in kitchen or used as an office or fourth bedroom. The property boasts eight closets affording its residents plenty of storage.
