Description

A very rare opportunity to own this elegant one bedroom apartment... in one of the most beautiful buildings... on one of Carneige Hill's quietest, tree-lined blocks.

This bright one bedroom apartment is in mint condition with beautiful prewar details, including an arched living room entrance, high beamed ceilings, crown moldings, and a windowed bathroom. The remodeled kitchen is done to perfection and four very large closets make it a very comfortable, practical home.

The apartment faces a large open court yard and is pin drop quiet.

The building itself is a very distinguished, 8-story, mid-block, Landmark status building with one of the most attractive glazed terracotta facades in the city. The structure's distinctive appearance combines the elegant classicism of Italian Renaissance-palazzo-style architecture with a "clean" modernism. All the windows are deeply inset giving the front elevation a very strong appearance of depth and drama.

The building was originally called "The Capitol" and was designed by George and Edward Blum, who were the architects of several architecturally acclaimed buildings that combine Beaux-Arts traditions with Art Nouveau and Arts & Crafts touches. The building recently brought back the Capitol name, and one year ago extensively remodeled the lobby to compliment the building's unique style.

Pied a Terres are allowed and welcome.

Please call for a private viewing.
