As soon as you enter this stunning and serene residence, you feel at home. The complete renovation with an elegant color palette has preserved the pre-war details, such as the crown moldings and coffered ceiling, while adding all new conveniences, from central air to in-unit Bosch washer and dryer; from wall-to-wall closets to recess lighting throughout the over 9 feet ceiling. The south facing oversize living room and the main bedroom look - from a floor up - unto a quiet garden with mature trees giving you the impression of being in a house in the country. To add to this feeling is the chef's kitchen that opening into the living space features a grand marble counter, glass backsplash, top of the line appliances such as SubZero refrigerator and Wolf stove, and tons of storage. The two bedrooms, at the opposite side of the apartment, guarantee maximum privacy. The main suite features a large room with an entire wall of custom closets and a windowed bath with glass-enclosed shower and marble counters. The second bedroom, which can accommodate two twin size beds and extra furniture, has a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with deep soaking tub and double vanity. This loft-like unit can be easily reconfigured as a 3 bedroom since the country-size kitchen (which measures 16' by 12'.5') can be scaled back to allow an additional windowed room be it a bedroom, a study, or a separate dining area. Please, note that this apartment is on the second floor. Residents can enjoy a beautifully landscaped roof deck with stunning views of the Museum of Natural History and the midtown skyline, as well as a quiet furnished backyard and play area. On the coveted West 79th Street Museum block, and conveniently located amid all the Upper West Side has to offer, the Dorset features a part-time (12pm-12am) doorman, live-in super, bike room, individual storage units, and central laundry room. The building is pet friendly and 75% financing permitted. A 24-month capital assessment of $448 per month began in July 2022 and will fund the modernization of both the passenger and service elevators.
