Property Description
With its exquisite architectural details intact, this renovated three bedroom (flex four) at the legendary Osborne cooperative maintains most of the original features. Interior features include leaded-glass windows, geometric transoms above the oak doors, mahogany-carved moldings, bronze and ceramic-tile fireplace surrounds?all this crowned by 14-foot ceilings. The windows are embellished with the original leaded glass transoms designed by Tiffany Studios. The hand-nailed parquet floor surfaces have original banded edges, and the walls are soundproofed and insulated for privacy, a nod to the Osborne?s numerous famous musical residents.
8BA?s living space includes a living room with wood-burning fireplace, dining room, and media room with full bath which could also be used as a bedroom. There is a sunny, south-facing eat-in windowed kitchen with wood cabinets and updated appliances. The ornate original details found throughout include a very special plaster frieze encircling this room?s ceiling. The primary bedroom is en suite with adjacent walk-in closet. There is a large laundry area with ample storage. Up a short flight of stairs is a double height loft library (3rd bedroom) and a wall full of closets and storage. All bathrooms were recently renovated with Artistic Tile and modern fixtures.
Flexibility is the key here. Adjacent is a separate studio apartment which can be left separate or combined with 8BA. This beautiful renovated space with wood-burning fireplace is perfect for visiting guests, family, friends, nannies, caretakers or whoever! Combining the studio would turn 8BA into a four-bedroom, three bathroom.
The legendary Osborne cooperative is located diagonally across from Carnegie Hall and next door to The Art Students League. Evidence of the Osborne?s musical, artistic, and architecturally significant neighbors is found in the magnificent decorative interior features of the lobby, the apartments and the ornate fa�ade. Home to many notable New Yorkers such as Leonard Bernstein (who composed West Side Story when living there), Bobby Short, Phil Jackson and many more. The neighborhood has it all. One block to Central Park, proximate to Broadway theaters, the shops at Columbus Circle, Whole Foods and scores of the best restaurants in the world and multiple subway and bus lines. Amenities include a newly renovated gym, building and bike storage, 24/7 doormen, resident building manager and a landscaped roof terrace with open city and Central Park views. Pet friendly. 50% financing allowed. 3% flip tax by buyer.
