This one-bedroom home at 151 West 74th Street has been lovingly renovated with color and material choices that make the classic pre-war co-op a rare find. Graceful architecture has been retained, while spaces have been opened up and enhanced with modern appliances, fixtures, and 21st-century comforts. Asking $1,295,000, this Upper West Side classic was finished with color and pattern carefully chosen to enhance its historic warmth.
Through a gracious foyer, enter a living room with walls done in a pale lavender. North-facing windows reveal city views that include icons like the American Museum of Natural History and The Beresford. Dimmable lighting allows you to set the mood throughout the day.
Done in cream and pale blue, a renovated galley kitchen has been enhanced with a Bosch refrigerator/freezer, a classic AGA range, a custom farm sink, and plenty of storage. A kitchen window fills the space with southern light. Off the kitchen is a powder room, joined by hidden laundry facilities and additional storage.
The bedroom, with views of the iconic Ansonia, is painted a classic green with darker accents. Custom closets and a bespoke storage unit keep clutter at bay. Another custom touch: an electronically controlled television stand that hides the TV when you want it to disappear. The ensuite bathroom is done in crisp black, white and gray, with Waterworks fixtures.
The pet-friendly building offers residents a live-in super, laundry, a virtual doorman, an outdoor seating area, a children’s playroom, and storage and bike storage. The quintessential Manhattan neighborhood puts favorites like Trader Joe’s, Fairway, Citarella, and Zabar’s within a few blocks, along with Central Park and Riverside Park.
