If quintessential, Upper West Side classic charm and character is your style but your contemporary lifestyle longs for up-to-date conveniences, then look no further. This one is a WOW... history with a modern touch. From the moment you step into The Dorset’s elegant marble lobby, you will be smitten by this turn of the century Italian Renaissance beauty. 4A offers an easy, flowing layout accented by its warmth and stylish ambience. The expanse of 4A just might take your breath away with its generously proportioned rooms and split bedroom floor plan. The beautiful and thoughtful renovations are complemented by day long northern exposures from over-sized windows providing ethereal light. An expertly renovated, windowed, pass-through kitchen offers expansive quartz countertops, plentiful cabinetry, and a full suite of stainless-steel appliances by Sub-Zero, Bertazzoni and Bosch that are sure to satisfy the home chef or takeout aficionado. No matter if you’re the chef or you have catered from the plethora of neighborhood eateries, the dedicated dining room space will accommodate an intimate dinner or a crowd. Two serene and airy bedrooms are fit for either a King or Queen, each with its own en-suite, windowed full bath. Oh, and despite being in the epicenter of the Upper West Side’s hubbub, tranquility at home is yours thanks to “city quiet” windows. Add an abundance of closet space, gorgeous wood floors, stunning crown molding, IN-UNIT LAUNDRY and CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING to seal the deal! The Dorset’s entry welcomes you with a three-story limestone base and step up canopied entrance. Residents enjoy two huge outdoor spaces; a gorgeous, landscaped and furnished roof deck with incredible views of the city, and a garden with dining tables as well as a separate play area. Staffed by part-time door attendants (4 pm-12 am), a resident manager, and full-time porter, residents are assured of top service. The building provides individual storage units, a bike room, and a central laundry area. Sublets and four-legged family members are permitted with board approval. Pied-a-terre ownership, co-purchasing, and parents buying for children are considered on a case-by-case basis. Located on the desirable museum block of West 79th Street between Columbus and Amsterdam, the Dorset is surrounded by the best of the Upper West Side including the Museum of Natural History and Central Park, notable restaurants and a plethora of shopping destinations. Convenient public transportation on the 1/B/C and buses will whisk you to other neighborhoods with ease!
