LARGE northern facing windows overlook beautiful gardens and the Yorkville Library, this studio is thoughtfully designed in every way. Boutique style co-op on tree-lined street in a recently renovated pre-war walk up close to subways, restaurants and shopping. Financially sound and well managed building with low monthly maintenance, and a reasonable board. Up to 90% financing, pied-a-terre, parents buying for children, guarantors and co-purchasing allowed. Sublets possible after two years. No pets. Adam Tihany, named one of the greatest American interior architects by the NYT, designed this rare gem of an apartment on a quiet tree lined UES street. Metropolitan Home, in a feature article, described the apartment as follows: "Rosy cherry wood turns the sleep platform into an Orient-Express carriage, while exquisite, curvy cabinets add architectural detail where there was none. The apartment provide storage, and their irresistible patinas are reminders of the Twenties and Thirties, the last great luxury age, when people shipped out or crossed continents in the wood-paneled cabins of the Normandie and the Orient-Express." This apartment is an early example of Tihany's world renowned hotel design.
