This very airy recently-renovated open-layout loft-like home features huge north- and west-facing windows, 10-foot ceilings, new hardwood floors, and a big living area. It takes in light from the north (what they call painters light). There is a windowed kitchen and a windowed bath with a large soaking tub. There is a full-time resident super (its best kept secret amazing asset), and laundry and bike rooms in the basement.

The unit is located in The Lyons at 135 West 79th Street, a building nestled mid-block within one of the Upper West Sides iconic residential stretches of beautiful pre-war buildings of near uniform height and color. This impeccably maintained 12-story elevator building was designed by renowned architect Robert T. Lyons in 1914 and contains 50 units. The building was converted into a co-op in 1983.

West 79th Street is a main yet quiet thoroughfare facing the beautiful grounds of the American Museum of Natural History. It is right at the heart of the Upper West Side, just a few steps away to Broadway, Amsterdam and Columbus Avenues which are lined with places that can provide you with everything you would need and/or want, like cafes, groceries, pharmacies, urgent care clinics, fitness centers, hardwares, bookstores, libraries, performance venues, theaters, etc. Central Park is a 1- blocks to the east and Riverside Park and the Hudson River Greenway are 2- blocks to the west. All major transportations are a few minutes walk away, such as the 79th St. (Line 1) and 81st St. (Lines A, B, C) subway stations and the reliable M79 crosstown bus to the east side.

[Note: I had the wall between the living room and bedroom taken down to bring in more light into the space. There is an option to put the wall back up, at buyers cost. It will not take more than one day to put up the wall.]
