Overview
Triple Mint One Bedroom at the Colton CONDOminium! Apartment 4M was tastefully gut renovated with no detail overlooked to allow for the comforts of modern living in a classic NY pre-war Condo building. The prewar aesthetic was preserved throughout with 9-foot ceilings, beautiful hardwood floors with herring bone pattern accents, recessed dining room shelves, and new solid doors, windows and baseboards were added to complement the historic details. The high prewar ceilings were accentuated by enlarging the height of the doorways throughout the apartment to provide a loft-like airy feel. The enormous 27’ x 12’ living room easily fits a work space, living and dining areas. Adjustable recessed LED light fixtures provide all the benefits of new energy efficient lighting. The windowed kitchen was reconfigured as an open concept, with a pass through counter between the kitchen and living room, and has stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry and granite countertops. Leading to the primary bedroom is the renovated windowed bathroom with a Duravit sink, Kohler medicine cabinet and a custom-made recessed cabinet for extra storage. The large sun-filled bedroom fits a king size bed with ample room for a sitting area and/or work space. There is no shortage of storage with a walk-in closet in the bedroom and an ample 11-foot long hallway closet. The historic Colton Condominium was built in 1939 and is staffed effectively with a live-in full-time superintendent, a full-time porter, a part-time doorman and a pro-active condo board. The Colton has a bike room, common laundry and soon to open interior garden/courtyard and gym, and a roof deck is expected to be added with expansive views of the Manhattan skyline. The building is conveniently located near the E, F, M, R and 7 train lines accessing all five boroughs, JFK and LaGuardia airports within minutes. In addition, the exciting Interborough Express project is already in development, creating a 14-mile rail line which will run along existing rail infrastructure between Jackson Heights and Bay Ridge, shortening travel time between Queens and Brooklyn.
