UNACHOHITAJI NI UPENDO MWINGI—NA NYUMBA NZURI KIASI HIKI.

Ikiwa umekuwa ukitafuta nyumba inayochanganya haiba halisi ya kabla ya vita na maisha ya kisasa yenye ubunifu, karibu kwenye Makazi 14C katika London Terrace Towers maarufu. Ikiwa na takriban futi za mraba 1,300, nyumba hii yenye nafasi ya kutosha inatoa mwanga mzuri wa asili, mandhari ya Hudson Yards, na mpangilio wa ndani uliofikiriwa kwa umakini zaidi katika jengo hili. Kwa maneno mengine, kuna nafasi ya kuishi hapa kweli; mabadiliko mazuri kwa maisha ya Manhattan.

Ndani, maelezo ya usanifu wa miaka ya 1930 yanakutana na muundo wa kisasa: sakafu halisi za mbao imara za mwaloni, dari zenye mihimili zenye urefu wa takriban futi 9, fremu za milango na mapambo ya chuma, pamoja na kuta zile za kupendeza za matofali na plasta zenye muundo wa asali, za mtindo wa zamani. Hii ni nyumba halisi ya kabla ya vita... si ghorofa jipya linalojifanya kuwa na historia.

Jiko lililo wazi limeboreshwa kwa uangalifu ili kuendana na maisha ya kisasa, likiwa na makabati mengi na nafasi kubwa ya kuweka na kuandalia vitu. Iwe unapika chakula cha jioni, unaandaa burudani kwa marafiki, au unakusanya tu menyu za vyakula vya kuagiza, kuna nafasi ya kila kitu—ikiwemo kifaa kile cha jikoni ambacho lazima uwe nacho.

Bafu yanaendeleza hadithi ya mtindo wa kabla ya vita kupitia kuta za vigae vya subway, vifaa halisi vya chrome, na sakafu za kawaida za mosai nyeusi na nyeupe. Yanavutia, ni halisi, na hayana haya kabisa kuhusu sifa zao za mtindo wa zamani.

Na kisha kuna makabati. Vyumba kadhaa vikubwa vya kuingia vinamaanisha kuwa uhifadhi si tatizo kabisa. Kwa ubinafsishaji unaofaa, unaweza hata kubadilisha kimoja kuwa viwili. Kwa sababu huko NYC, nafasi ya kabati si uhifadhi tu—ni “ardhi yenye thamani”.

Halafu zinakuja mandhari. Maendeleo ya Hudson Yards yanaonekana kwa kuvutia kwa mbali, pamoja na The Edge, Empire State Building, na majengo mengine mengi mashuhuri yanayopamba mandhari ya jiji.

London Terrace Towers inainua kiwango cha maisha ya kila siku kwa huduma za kipekee kwa wakazi, zikiwemo mhudumu wa ukumbi anayepatikana muda wote, usimamizi wa ndani ya jengo, msimamizi anayeishi kwenye jengo, kituo cha kisasa cha mazoezi ya mwili (uanachama tofauti), bwawa la ndani lenye joto lenye ukubwa wa nusu ya bwawa la Olimpiki, pamoja na paa lenye mandhari lililopandwa mimea na samani za teak; pia kuna vyumba vya kubadilishia nguo, vyumba vya mvuke, sauna, sehemu ya kufulia, vyumba vya kuhifadhia baiskeli, maghala, na maegesho ya chini ya ardhi.

ALL YOU NEED IS PLENTY OF LOVE - AND A HOME THIS GOOD.

If you've been searching for a home that blends authentic prewar character with smart, modern living, welcome to Residence 14C at iconic London Terrace Towers. Nearly 1,300 +/- square feet, this generously proportioned home offers beautiful natural light, Hudson Yards views, and one of the most thoughtful floor plans in the complex. In other words, there's room to actually live here; a rather nice change of pace for Manhattan.

Inside, classic 1930's architectural details meet smart design: original solid oak plank floors, 9' +/- beamed ceilings, steel door frames and grillwork, and those wonderfully old-fashioned honeycombed brick-and-plaster walls. This is real prewar ... not a new apartment pretending to have a past.

The open kitchen has been thoughtfully updated for modern life, with generous cabinetry and plenty of counter space. Whether one is cooking dinner, entertaining friends, or simply collecting takeout menus, there's room for all of it - including that kitchen gadget that you have to own.

The bathrooms continue the prewar story with subway tile walls, original chrome fixtures, and classic black-and-white mosaic flooring. Charming, authentic, and wonderfully unapologetic about their vintage credentials.

And then there are the closets. Several oversized walk-ins mean storage is hardly an issue. With the right customization, you could even turn one into two. Because in NYC, closet space is not merely storage, it is "real estate".

Then come the views. Hudson Yards development rises dramatically in the distance with The Edge, Empire State Building, and plenty of other architectural heavyweights in the cityscape.

London Terrace Towers elevates everyday living with resident-only amenities including a full-time lobby attendant, onsite management, live-in superintendent, state-of-the-art fitness center (separate membership), a stunning 1/2 Olympic size indoor heated pool, landscaped and teak furnished roof deck, along with locker rooms, steam rooms, saunas, laundry, bike rooms, storage, and underground parking.

Step outside and you're immersed in West Chelsea-where art galleries, top-tier dining, and cultural landmarks like the High Line Promenade, Whitney Museum, Chelsea Market, City Winery, Little Island, Hudson Yards, Chelsea Piers Athletic Complex and Hudson River waterfront are all moments away.

In short: a home with character, comfort, and just enough charm to make staying in as tempting as going out. If you want the VIP tour from the #1 resident agent (via Google) to take advantage of my true VIP tour of this amazing listing and our outstanding residential complex.
