Description

EXTRAORDINARY VALUE -- ESTATE MUST SETTLE & SAYS SELL & WILL PAY 6 MONTH'S MAINTENANCE!! This is an phenomenal (and rarely available) opportunity for a qualified buyer to purchase a superlative top-floor duplex penthouse apartment (floors 20 & 21) 'far' below market value.<br><br>The apartment features six lovely proportioned rooms (2-3 bedrooms), and upper and lower East facing terraces.<br<br>The apartment is in original 'estate' condition requiring renovation.<br><br>On the first level, a gracious entry vestibule with windowed powder room/half bath, an 'East to West' living room (with terrace) & formal dining room stretching end-to-end (35 Ft. in length!).<br><br>The two over-sized public rooms (ideal for entertaining!) are connected by two sets of beautifully mitered mahogany doors and detailed with large mahogany crown moldings. A west facing kitchen and a convertible bedroom (study or staff room) with views west across Central Park complete the first level.<br><br>A dramatic winding staircase with east facing window leads gracefully to the upper level comprising a master bedroom (with terrace), second bedroom, full bath and abundant closet space. There is access to the upper level of the duplex directly from the 21st floor.<br><br>The apartment is open and airy, utterly tranquil, swept by brilliant Eastern & Western light with unobstructed panoramic skyline views in ALL directions.<br><br>The apartment offers an extremely versatile floor plan; the large amount of space provides a variety of possibilities for re-configuration. One attractive, practical option would be the conversion of the entire 2nd level to a master suite, including master, dressing room, study, terrace, etc.<br><br>The 'Victorian' is a distinguished 'white glove' full service coop on a leafy side street in a wonderful east side neighborhood -- with proximity to shops, boutiques and restaurants, and all modes of transportation. There is a private garage in the building. Maintenance fee includes basic cable and electricity; 75% financing allowed; pets & pied-a-terre's allowed.<br><br>Note: 1.) furnishings shown in photos are from previously occupied apartment; apartment is presently vacant; 2.) 175 East 62nd Street is a land-lease building, similar to apartments ('leaseholds') in the most affluent areas of Central London.<br><br>The present land lease was negotiated in 2010 for 99 years with very favorable terms for the co-op. For buyers willing to pay marginally more monthly maintenance due to building's (very stable!) leasehold status will receive a substantial purchase price benefit!<br><br>The leasehold is owned (and has been) for over 100 years by the Scottish noble house of 'Roxburghe.
