About This Home
Brand new on the market, renovated and with the most ideal layout that allows for a king size bed in the bedroom and a desk.
Welcome to Residence 1C at 26 West 97th Street - a spacious, beautifully renovated one-bedroom home just feet from Central Park. This charming pre-war condo seamlessly blends timeless architectural character with tasteful modern upgrades.
Facing the peaceful, southwest-facing common garden, this quiet first-floor apartment does NOT face the street, offering a tranquil living experience. Soaring 9'5" ceilings, arched doorways, hardwood floors, and oversized windows create a warm and airy atmosphere throughout. The granite kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances and a window that brings in natural light, while the marble bathroom adds a refined touch. The generously sized bedroom comfortably fits a king-size bed, includes a large closet, overhead storage, and still has room for a desk or reading nook - for today's flexible lifestyle.
The building features a well-maintained elevator, an updated laundry room, a furnished residents" lounge for casual gatherings, and a charming shared courtyard. With exceptionally low common charges and real estate taxes, this home is a rare combination of comfort, value, and location. Whole Foods is visible from the entrance, Trader Joe's is just four blocks away, and Columbus Square's restaurants, shops, and caf s are all nearby. Transportation is effortless with the B/C subway and crosstown bus less than half a block away, and the 1/2/3 lines a short stroll to Broadway. CitiBike is conveniently located around the corner at Central Park West and 97th. Offered "as is," with a monthly assessment of $273 through December 2025, this is an exceptional opportunity to own and personalize a classic Central Park pre-war condo.
