Located less than half a block from the verdant grounds of The Museum of Natural History, also known as Theodore Roosevelt Park, and only a block and a half from Central Park, this delightful one bedroom apartment offers location, location, location and plenty of light in The Austin Condominium, a 24 hour full-service doorman building.  With Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues at either end, residents enjoy a wide variety of dining experiences, from popular casual restaurants to elegant venues, many with inviting outdoor patios.  Cooks and foodies will also enjoy the Farmer's Market every Sunday on Columbus Avenue and 79th Street.

 In terms of convenience, the address is flanked by two nearby major subway lines and serviced by the 79th Street crosstown bus.   Apartment 11D faces North; newly installed thermal picture windows ensure peace and quiet as well as consistent natural light all day.  The kitchen has just undergone a total and upscale renovation by Cardinal Kitchens, with custom glass-fronted cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and Caesarstone countertop. The open plan is ideal for entertaining and provides enough counter space for four high backed chairs.  Parquet wood floors throughout, a marble bath and a bedroom large enough for a king-size bed and with a walk-in closet completes the picture.

 The Austin Condominium is pet-friendly and features 24 hour doorman service, live-in super, laundry, fitness room, dry sauna and a roof deck with stunning city views.   This is a wonderful investment, as subletting is permitted; it is also a perfect pied-a-terre or a fine full time residence!
