CENTRAL PARK SANCTUARY! NEWLY RENOVATED! MOVE IN READY! This stunning, gut-renovated studio in a historic 1903 flatiron building on West 69th Street offers a rare blend of light, luxury, and smart design. Renovated in 2022 with all-new electrical and plumbing systems, the unit features nearly 11-foot ceilings, custom cabinetry throughout, and a full-height walk-in closet with Elfa drawers for exceptional storage. The windowed bathroom, with 9ft. pocket door is outfitted with a deep-soak tub, Walker-Zanger tile, Caesarstone shelving, and high-end fixtures including a Moen bidet and dual medicine cabinets. Unique touches like a vessel sink atop an antique sewing machine base and a vintage Bakelite mirror add character, while a frosted glass pocket door enhances privacy.

The chef’s kitchen boasts top-of-the-line appliances, including a luxury Thor stove, Fisher & Paykel vent, Samsung dishwasher, GE refrigerator, and a Eurostyle washer/dryer approved by the co-op. Clever additions like a hidden pullout cutting board and a rolling 62" chopping block table—perfect as a dining table or desk—maximize functionality. A king-size hydraulic Murphy bed with a Tempur-pedic style mattress ensures comfort without sacrificing space. The apartment is virtually soundproof, with added insulation in the bathroom for extra quiet.

Enjoy serene views from the massive double window opening to a Juliet balcony nestled among the trees. The building features two elevators plus a service elevator, and residents have access to a spacious 24-hour laundry room. With Acacia wood floors, Caesarstone counters, and the option to purchase fully furnished, this move-in-ready home is truly one of a kind and ideal for full-time living.

Built in 1903, The Lincoln Spencer is an elegant prewar cooperative with a 24-hour doorman and a live-in superintendent. Pied-à-terre ownership, gifting, co-purchasing, and pets are welcome, with unlimited subletting permitted after five years of residency (subject to board approval). Located at 69th Street and Broadway, this unbeatable address puts you just minutes from the 69th Street Central Park entrance, Lincoln Center, The Beacon Theatre, top restaurants, boutique shopping, and the 1, 2, 3, B, and C subway lines. Ongoing assessment of $102.08.
