Pieds-a-terres are welcome and as an added bonus, the monthly maintenance includes all utilities.
The prestigious Hampshire House, built in 1937, is one of New York City's finest examples of the Art Deco style with a beautiful lobby designed by Dorothy Draper. The building offers a unique combination of old world character and white-gloved service with the conveniences of a modern, full service building. Amenities include a 24 hour doorman, concierge, bell captain, laundry room, and a state of the art fitness center. Daily housekeeping is also available at an additional charge. The building is pet friendly, offers additional storage, and subleasing is permitted after two years of residency. Please note 50% bank financing is allowed with Board approval and there is a 3% flip tax paid by the purchaser at closing.
With Central Park across the street, Carnegie Hall around the corner, and the Time Warner Center, with its high-end boutiques, five-star restaurants, and Whole Foods, down the street, one is truly at 'the center of it all.' This is a rare opportunity not to be missed!
