The Call of the Great Outdoors - Inwood Beckons!
Imagine your own private, sundrenched terrace. You've planted flowers and herbs; the bees and butterflies are visiting. It feels intimate and delightful. You overlook lush gardens. The outdoors beckons. You can play with your gardening tools, wear your hiking boots, and dust off your bird watching binoculars. And you're in Manhattan.
"But what about the indoors?", you ask. Offering elegance and space, this prewar gem offers the best of the best. The gracious and flowing layout greets you with a true entrance foyer inviting you to experience this home with all its charm. Make memories with friends and family as treetop views from sunny windows and the unique terrace (only TWO in the entire complex) offer a seasonal palette of color. High, beamed ceilings and an expansive sunken living room set the stage when it's party time or time to unwind. The windowed, eat-in kitchen has been thoughtfully, tastefully, and expertly renovated to include expansive quartz countertops, plentiful cabinetry and a full suite of stainless-steel appliances, sure to please the in-home chef or takeout aficionado. The serene and airy primary bedroom, fit for a King or Queen, also offers terrace access. The second bedroom could suit many uses- home office, family bedroom, den...what will you do with it? If a spa bathroom is on your wish list, we've got you covered with a stunning and classic renovation; as they say, just bring your toothbrush! All this plus gorgeous hardwood floors, abundant and customized closets, designer lighting fixtures, and many original details that complete the picture. The outdoors is the icing on the cake.
Park Terrace Gardens is a five-building, pre-war cooperative complex on the site of the former Seaman Mansion. Known as "The Gardens", the community is centered around a stunning, landscaped garden featuring meandering walking paths. The garden is the site of an annual garden party, where a seldom seen sense of community in Manhattan is cultivated with the same interest as the garden itself, which is largely maintained by residents. Rooftop common areas are equipped with grills and tables that set the stage for stunning sunset gatherings overlooking the Henry Hudson Bridge. There is a management office on site and deliveries are handled by the central concierge office. Buildings offer common laundry and there is bicycle storage. Sublets are permitted after two years of residency and four-legged family members are welcome at Park Terrace Gardens. Internet service is included in the monthly maintenance charges.
