WELCOME TO BEEKMAN PLACE! EXPERIENCE SERENITY! ENJOY PRIVACY! Stroll along a beautiful tree lined street, reach an enclave, enter a unique pre-war building and sense the relaxed environment before you even enter this gracious and charming apartment. Upon entry, you find yourself in a spacious foyer opening to a large living room with high beamed ceilings and a wood burning fireplace that provides the warmth and glow needed during the long winter months. There is a windowed dining alcove which can be used as a den, guest room or whatever serves your needs. The apartment is a juxtaposition of the old and the new. The original beams, moldings and newly refinished wood plank floors are a reminder of the past. Even the door knobs remain. The newly installed HVAC in the living room, allowing one to control the heat and air conditioning, is a modern convenience. The roomy, updated pass-through kitchen gets light and air from the facing window. The Bosch dishwasher, Samsung Stove and Microwave were recently installed. Off the living room, a hallway leads to a large bedroom with two exposures. The air conditioner in this room has been newly installed as has the one in the dining alcove. The windowed bathroom has been beautifully maintained with original bathtub and tiling. There are a total of 4 closets, three of which are large walk-ins. All of the closets are California Closets. To add to all the positives, the maintenance includes electricity. There is a 2% Flip Tax to be paid by the Buyer.
