Welcome home to this exceptional two bedroom pre-war beauty in historic Payson House, one of the jewels of Inwood. Offering sunny views of The Cloisters in Fort Tryon Park and Inwood Hill Park, this spacious and generous layout truly feels just like home. The welcoming foyer with two closets opens to a perfect dining room, complete with a built-in mission buffet. Next you'll step down into an oversized sunken living room with two south facing windows. Enjoy lovely art deco details throughout, including archways, picture rails, wainscoting, nine foot ceilings, crown moldings and herringbone floors. The separate windowed kitchen is a chef's dream, with updated cabinets galore, under counter lighting, granite countertops and a dishwasher. The windowed bath has the original soaking tub, a stall shower, and it's been cleverly outfitted to maximize storage. The massive king bedroom offers two exposures, both south and west, and the spacious second bedroom/home office has abundant storage with a closet and two built-ins. From the moment you step into the restored art deco lobby, this immaculately maintained Co-op will transport you to a grand and simpler time, away from the hustle and bustle of city life, yet so close to the "A" express train, countless restaurants, Saturday Green Market and shopping. Payson House features a beautifully planted courtyard garden, a resident Super, laundry, storage, a package room and parking. Inwood Hill Park with rambling hiking trails and recreation is literally out your front door. Don't miss your opportunity to live in this beautifully maintained home, lived in with gentle loving care and any eye for detail, and nestled between two soaring parks which rise majestically over the stately Hudson River in upper Manhattan.
