Classic UWS townhouse living meets no-detail-unthought-of European design in this elevated 1BR with southern exposure, 11' ceilings, split system heating and cooling, and a thorough and imaginative renovation that makes the most of every inch of cubic square footage.

Lively design marries punch and practicality and features myriad thoughtful touches, including ingenious storage systems, like the pass-through that provides additional privacy and a full built-in closet and bureau system to the tranquil bedroom. and the built-in desk that creates an ideal-but-unobtrusive work-from-home situation.

The sleek and effective kitchen has been fully remodeled, featuring a gas cooktop, Viking convection oven/microwave, ConServ refrigerator, and floor-to-ceiling cabinets that maximize storage and keep the daily layout visually simple. The bathroom, outfitted in Duravit and Toto, has been likewise designed with an eye to beauty and ease.

Speaking of ease: the owners will offer the home furnished or unfurnished, according to the tenants' preference, and welcome one small pet (cat or dog < 30lbs). Commuting and access to culture, community, restaurants and parks are all a snap with the 1/2/3 train on the corner and Riverside Park a stone's throw away.
