A stunning 3 bedroom garden duplex on the Upper West Side, within a block of Central Park, and with the most amazing private outdoor oasis - nearly 500sf of outdoor living complete with dining pergola, an outdoor grill, a pond with waterfall - all of which is surrounded by lush and mature bamboo for privacy.
