Sunny high-floor 2-bеdroοm, 2-bаthroοm&nbѕр;home in the hеаrt οf thе Weѕt 70s is central to all neighborhood excitement, yet pin-drop quiet, nestled away from the bustle of Broadway. This perfect Upper West Side home blends classic pre-war charm and character with thoughtful modern upgrades. Beamed ceilings, illuminated by elegant cove lighting, add depth and dimension to the sophisticated renovation. Enhanced with custom storage throughout, the residence is both inviting and exceptionally functional.
The open kitchen, L-shaped living room, and windowed dining alcove with built-in banquette flow seamlessly, connecting the home's entertaining spaces. The U-shaped kitchen is beautifully appointed with stainless-steel appliances, including an oversized gas range, in-sink waste disposal, wine refrigerator, stone countertops, an elevated breakfast bar, and a full pantry closet. Rich wood cabinetry extends to the ceiling and continues beyond the kitchen, with matching custom built-ins throughout the dining alcove and living spaces.
The primary bedroom features exceptional storage, including a dedicated en-suite closet and a private, renovated bath. The secondary bedroom is equally versatile, complete with custom built-in shelving, a media wall, an office nook, and a fully integrated Murphy bed-ideal for transforming into a den, home office, or guest bedroom when needed.
The well-designed split-bedroom layout offers excellent circulation and windows facing three directions. Through-wall air conditioning units are discreetly built in beneath designated windows. Laundry is conveniently located on every floor, just steps outside your apartment door, eliminating the need to sacrifice valuable closet space.
The Opera is a full-service, well-run cooperative offering a 24-hour doorman, a live-in resident manager, bike room, storage, and laundry access on every floor. The lobby has been fully renovated, and a high-end hallway upgrade are forthcoming, with completed plan on display in the lobby, and capital improvement funds are already allocated.
The building is in a strong financial position and is set to take control of the commercial leases at its base level in 2029-just three years away-positioning it to benefit directly from future lease revenue. Warm and friendly staff serve as true neighborhood experts, offering a personalized, concierge-style experience, and a welcoming, secure environment.
