Description

Nestled in the heart of Astoria, The Concord stands as the crown jewel of cooperative living, renowned for its timeless elegance and architectural charm. This exceptionally rare, expansive two-bedroom residence-the largest available in the building-presents a truly unique opportunity to experience one of the neighborhood's most prestigious addresses. Perched on the top floor, this grand apartment boasts the largest floorplan in the co-op, adorned with original details that evoke a sense of history and sophistication. From the butler's pantry and rich mahogany doors to the graceful arches, hardwood floors, and cove ceilings, the home retains its authentic character. Upon entry, you're greeted by a spacious foyer with a large walk-in closet-ideal for use as a home office, library, or art gallery. The bright and airy living room, also spacious enough to accommodate a second workspace, invites relaxation and versatility. Elevated slightly, the dining area comfortably seats eight and flows seamlessly into the adjacent kitchen, which offers ample counter space on both sides and an abundance of cabinetry for storage. The bedroom wing, accessed via the dining room or a hallway from the foyer, offers privacy and tranquility. The primary bedroom, an impressive 19x12, features dual closets and enjoys both northern and western exposures. The second bedroom, measuring approximately 13x12, is bathed in natural light with southern and western views. The original bathroom includes a large closet where a stand-up shower once stood; however, the plumbing remains intact, allowing for easy restoration if desired. Throughout the apartment, six large closets, soaring ceilings, and abundant sunlight add to the sense of spaciousness and comfort. The Concord's elegant lobby and meticulously landscaped courtyard enhance the building's appeal, while modern amenities such as a package room, virtual doorman, bike storage, and individual storage units offer convenience. Located just two blocks from the subway, The Concord places you at the heart of Astoria's vibrant cultural scene, with its renowned arts institutions, Michelin-starred restaurants, charming cafes, and diverse shopping options. This residence is more than just a home-it's an opportunity to live in an iconic building at the center of it all.
