A HUDSON RIVER STUDIO OF UNCOMMON REFINEMENT Some apartments are merely lived in. This one has been curated — and it comes with a HUDSON RIVER SUNSET VIEW that will stop you mid-sentence, every single evening. Perched on the eleventh floor of the landmark Master Apartments — one of the Upper West Side's most storied Art Deco addresses — this south-facing studio offers something increasingly rare in Manhattan: genuine craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and a quiet that feels worlds away from the city below. The Kitchen: This is not a studio kitchen. It's a serious cook's kitchen that happens to be in a studio. Miele oven and range, Viking hood, Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer drawers, a Shaws Original farmhouse sink with Perrin & Rowe fittings, Boos Block cherrywood countertops, and a fresh custom tile backsplash — finished with abundant cabinetry throughout. It anchors the apartment with a warmth and functionality most full-floor homes don't achieve. The Details: Wide-plank Carlisle floors — beautifully refinished — run throughout, grounding the space with an organic richness underfoot. Antique French doors salvaged from J.P. Morgan's summer estate add a layer of provenance that simply cannot be replicated. Vintage hallway light fixtures, carefully restored to their original character. A farmhouse-style bathroom with a soaking clawfoot tub and Duravit sink that feels more like a boutique hotel than a co-op. The Storage: Two generously sized closets outfitted with California Closets systems, plus three custom built-ins throughout. In a studio, this changes everything. The Building: The Master Apartments is a designated historic landmark — a 1929 Art Deco tower with 24-hour doorman, resident manager, and a genuine sense of community rare in New York City. Building amenities include bike storage, private storage lockers, laundry, and a calendar of resident events and exhibitions. The building's flexibility is equally notable: subletting permitted for primary residents (4 of 6 years, board approval), pets welcome (one dog), and pied-à-terre and co-purchasing applications accepted. The Location: Two blocks from the 1 train. The M5 at your door. Riverside Park, Columbia University, and some of the city's finest dining and cultural institutions within easy reach. This is Upper West Side living at its best! Private appointments available upon request. NOTE: Ongoing Cap Contribution $73 monthly.
