PIED-A-TERRE ALLOWED! OPEN HOUSES BY APPT ONLY! A unique and beautifully renovated two-bedroom residence with a home office and stunning private garden in an intimate brownstone perfectly located on a tree-lined Central Park block on the Upper West Side. Upon entry to this special residence, a landing area awaits where you can leave the outside world behind. Natural southern light pours in from the 17' double-height wall of glass at the back of the home showcasing an idyllic two-level garden with mature trees, plantings, new stone pavers, and a built-in stone seating area to enjoy evening cocktails around your fire pit or the sweet bird songs in the early morning hours. A respite from the bustle of the city, this home is so quiet one can almost hear a pin drop as a result of its perfect positioning in the center of the block. Both levels of the residence have access to and enjoy peaceful views of the outdoor oasis. A spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace for those cozy winter evenings is on the upper level of the home. An open chef's kitchen complete with granite countertops, a thoughtful built-in pantry, and top-of-the-line appliances including an integrated SubZero fridge, and a Miele range, stove, and steam oven leads to a lovely dining area. A sun-filled bedroom with two exposures and a luxurious bathroom with heated floors, Toto self-cleaning toilet and bidet, and Porcelanosa tile, fixtures, and vanity are also on this level. The lower level of the home features a massive primary bedroom with a wood-burning fireplace, extensive cedar walk-in closet, and entire wall of additional custom closets. An exquisite ensuite bath is a wonder to behold with its extended length, tempered glass-enclosed steam shower, heated floors, and fixtures by Porcelanosa including an "Almond" tub and beautiful vanity with what seems like endless storage. A windowed home office with extensive built-ins is a perfect addition to the primary suite. Laundry can be found immediately outside the lower level's entry door. Every detail was considered during the complete renovation of this turnkey home including a ductless AC/heat system controlled by Nest thermostats, wiring with fiber optic cable to accommodate 5G technology, and in-ceiling speakers throughout. This pet-friendly, financially sound coop has a wonderful super, bicycle storage, and allows washer/dryers and pied-a-terre. With Central Park at the end of the block, the farmers market each Sunday by the Museum of Natural History, Citarella and Fairway nearby, the B, 2, 3, and 1 trains within blocks, and access to Lincoln Center and all of the fantastic restaurants of the Upper West Side, this location can not be beat. Two additional floor plans have been added to highlight where a traditional staircase could be placed in the apartment. There is also FAR (air rights) remaining allowing for an additional room to be added in the rear of the apartment
