...read moreHave you been waiting for the perfect apartment on the Grand Concourse? The absolute epitome of art-deco design and perfect, high-end modern renovation has finally come to the market at the only prewar doorman co-op directly on the Concourse in the historic district. 860 Grand Concourse is perfectly situated across from the stately Bronx Supreme Court building on the corner of 159th Street. Corner windows, tan and red brick, and a dramatic zigzag facade distinguish the building, which is crowned with unique decorative metalwork on the roof. Seven stories plus a cellar, the building includes a part-time doorman, live-in super, bike storage, and an aggressive program of capital improvements happening right now. The bricks are being repointed, the roof is being completely replaced, and new elevators are being installed. Apartment 7B is on the coveted top floor of the building which means it has an extra foot of ceiling height in the dropped living room, and extra-tall windows to match. The home faces north and west, guaranteeing beautiful light all day while also being extremely quiet since it doesnt face the street. The foyer is spacious and is the heart of the home, with two large closets and entry to the living room, kitchen, and the hallway to the bedroom and bath. Original details such as the crown and picture moldings, basketweave parquet floors with walnut borders, and the built-in bookcase have been retain and restored. The living room boasts a mid-century brushed brass and glass ceiling light, and the original arched entryway and railings. The 1930s wood floors throughout have been refinished but not stained so the light natural oak color reflects the sparkling light, and have been sealed with three coats of matte polyurethane. The kitchen is completely renovated, with bright white cabinets with brushed brass pulls, quartzite countertops, and soothing grey tiles on the floor. The backsplash is crisp, frosted white glass tiles, which uniquely complement the stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher, Samsung french-door refrigerator (with plumbed automatic ice maker), Samsung slide-in range and microwave, and Hansgrohe pull-out sprayer faucet. No detail was overlooked creating this sleek, contemporary space that makes it a pleasure to cook and entertain. There is room in front of the window for a kitchen table or banquette that can seat 3 or 4 people. The bathroom was completely retiled in smart white subway tile and matte black penny tile, both with charcoal grout. The original art-deco bathtub was retained, and reglazed white to match. The sink is a top-of-the line Duravit 1930 model, which perfectly complements the brushed brass faucets and streamline modern light fixture above the medicine cabinet. Brushed and natural brass accents continue, including the flushometer and Restoration Hardware frosted glass towel bars. Even the door handles in the apartment have been replaced with reproduction chrome art deco plates and crystal knobs. No detail has been overlooked. The listing broker is the owner of this gem, which is currently occupied by a tenant with a lease expiring in September. Limited showing times available with advance notice only.
