310 West 55th Street #4B

Location, Location, Location The ultimate studio in the city for a pied-à-terre or primary residence. Built in 1941, at the end of the prewar era, it retains all the charm with additional space and flow. Every space is oversized, from the main room, set at the garden treeline for a beautiful, green and bright southern exposure, to an additional eastern exposure for light and air. From the minute you enter the home, you are greeted by that light dancing along the original wood floors, from the living room through a dining area and into the foyer. The kitchen, off the dining area, is a functional space with lots of counter space and cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and an eastern-facing window. There is also a windowed bath that is clean, well-maintained, and spacious. The bath is set off one of the home's best features: a walk-in closet/changing area, which combines with three other closets to give more storage than almost any other studio on the market at this price. The building is a 24-hour doorman property with a shared outdoor garden as well as a laundry room. This is a strong co-op with very strong financials and a board friendly to buyers. The location is what it is all about. At 55th between 8th and 9th Avenues, you sit at the center of everything great about the West Side, all at your fingertips: Central Park, Columbus Circle, Lincoln Center, Broadway, Restaurant Row, and sensational restaurants of all kinds. Even Hudson Yards to the south and the parks and piers along the Hudson-the city just expands in wonder in all directions. Most interesting is how the energy shifts on this one block. With horse-drawn carriages taking the block back to the stables down 55th, it is a block apart, with a quiet peace just steps from the energy of Midtown to the east. This location is arguably one of the best in the city for a great deal on the studio you have been waiting for.
