***Seller offering to pay first year maintenance*** Nestled in the heart of Midtown West, this oversized studio with a smartly designed layout offers both comfort and flexibility. A gracious foyer welcomes you in and easily doubles as a dining area or home office. The spacious living room provides ample space to accommodate distinct living and sleeping areas, while oversized windows fill the home with natural light. The windowed kitchen is efficiently laid out with full-size appliances, generous counter space, and plentiful cabinetry. A windowed bathroom retains classic pre-war charm, complemented by a separate dressing room with closet-a rare and highly functional feature for a studio. Two additional closets off the hall provide surprising storage options. Beautifully refinished hardwood floors and freshly painted walls make this home move-in ready. Comfort is ensured with radiator heating and through-wall air conditioning. Situated in a boutique co-op on a tranquil, tree-lined block, residents enjoy the services of a live-in superintendent, central laundry, bike storage, and a landscaped common garden. The location is unbeatable-just moments from Central Park, Columbus Circle, the Theatre District, and multiple transit lines. The co-op permits pieds-à-terre, pets, co-purchasing, and subletting with board approval. There is an ongoing assessment of $125.92 per month for 24 months to replenish the co-op's reserves. *Some photos are virtually staged
