From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Exceptional One-Bedroom with Three Exposures at The Normandy. Apartment 8N welcomes you with a gracious foyer leading into a 31-foot living and dining room, where oversized casement windows and a curved bay window frame views across the Upper West Side and an oblique view of Riverside Park. With northern, eastern, and southern exposures, the rooms are filled with natural light throughout the day. The windowed kitchen opens directly off the dining area and features bespoke cabinetry, a crisp white tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances, including a four-burner gas cooktop and double wall oven. The bedroom overlooks an interior garden and comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed and additional furnishings. A large walk-in closet and ample closet space throughout provide excellent storage. The windowed bathroom features a deep soaking tub and mirrored vanity wall. Original herringbone floors and high beamed ceilings bring warmth and architectural character to the home. Built in 1938 and designed by renowned architect Emery Roth, The Normandy occupies the full block between 86th and 87th Streets. Its Renaissance-inspired detailing and streamlined Moderne architecture earned recognition from the Landmarks Preservation Comm. as "one of the most outstanding residential buildings on the Upper West Side." The white-glove cooperative offers two entrances, a grand central lobby, full-time doormen and concierge, a resident manager, and dedicated staff. Residents enjoy a landscaped roof deck with sweeping water and city views, two fitness centers, a community room, laundry, bike storage, and private storage. The building is pet-friendly and permits pied-a-terre ownership, co-purchasing, subletting, and up to 75% financing. A beautifully proportioned home with exceptional light and outlooks, in one of the Upper West Side's most distinctive prewar cooperatives.
