55 7th Ave, # 2

This spectacular two-bedroom home has stunning period detail and amazing proportions! Located on the second floor of a truly-unique 1880s Gothic Revival limestone townhouse, the most striking feature of this lovely apartment is the enormous, west-facing, floor-to-ceiling stained glass window that allows beautiful light to stream into the apartment all afternoon long. The apartment also features 12' ceilings, original crown and ceiling moldings, ceiling medallions, a marble mantel and decorative fireplace (which could be converted to a working fireplace), and a stunning pier mirror in the bedroom. The large, open-concept main room has a renovated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, a spacious living area with the fireplace as its focal point, and a dining area and office, three steps up on the 'second level.' The bedroom is enormous and has gorgeous bay windows which overlooks the PRIVATE BALCONY and the serene gardens below. Both bedrooms have generous closet space, while the second bedroom also has a washer/dryer hook-up. Beautiful hardwood floors with walnut inlay can be found throughout the apartment and the recently renovated bathroom offers a large soaking tub. The building is pet friendly and has basement storage and bike storage. Located in the heart of the North Slope, with fantastic assess to multiple subway lines, Prospect Park, and all the great shopping and amenities in the neighborhood, the location can't be beat!
