From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Sunny, spacious ground-floor one bedroom with a dining alcove and updated bathroom. This south-facing residence is filled with natural light throughout the day and offers generous proportions rarely found at this level. A separate dining alcove provides a dedicated space for entertaining or a home office setup, while the updated bathroom has been thoughtfully renovated with modern finishes. Southern exposure with open views keeps the apartment bright and airy. 235 West 70th Street is a landmarked six-story white brick building with 61 residences. Built in 1965, this postwar non-doorman cooperative is served by a passenger elevator and is ideally situated on a quiet residential block between Amsterdam and West End Avenues on the Upper West Side. The location puts residents minutes from Lincoln Center, Riverside Park, Central Park, and the Hudson River Esplanade, with an abundance of restaurants, shops, and grocery options nearby. Excellent access to the 1/2/3 trains at 72nd Street and Broadway, plus proximity to multiple bus lines, makes commuting effortless. Building amenities include an elevator, resident superintendent, laundry room, and bike room. Pet-friendly.
