Upper West Side

Formerly the home of Andy Rooney, author and beloved "60 Minutes" commentator, this elegant prewar 1BD/1BA beauty awaits you. Pin drop quiet, and spaciously proportioned throughout, one enters through a proper foyer that leads to a graciously proportioned living room and dining area. A large triple window bordered by custom book shelves allows for warm eastern light. The corner bedroom boasts a custom fitted walk-in closet and a windowed bathroom beautifully maintained to preserve its quintessential prewar charm. The windowed galley kitchen has butcher block countertops, high-end appliances, generous storage, and a vented washer/dryer. Other features include stunning original oak parquet floors, tasteful prewar moldings and details throughout, 9 1/2 foot ceilings, thru-wall and windowed AC, and an additional oversized closet in the foyer. Designed and built in 1925 by famed architect, Emery Roth, Chester Court is a full-service, luxury prewar cooperative with impeccable financials. Residents enjoy the highest level of service including a live-in Super, 24-hr doorman, and full building staff. Amenities include a fully equipped fitness center, bike room, storage rooms, playroom, basketball court, and a beautifully planted common roof deck. This pet friendly, smoke-free building allows pied-à-terres, guarantors and co-purchasing with board approval. Situated in a prime neighborhood of the Upper West Side near Central and Riverside Parks, the best shopping, restaurants and all modes of public transportation, it doesn't get much better than this. Electricity is also included in the low maintenance.
