Description

Extraordinary opportunity to create a magnificent 4-6 bedroom corner home featuring panoramic open city views from every room! Apartments 12D and 12E combined at 161 West 75th Street will make an exceptional 3,100 +/- SF home with 15 exterior windows and three bright exposures that showcase a spectacular vantage point overlooking the city--that of the Upper West Side and all of its iconic landmarks to Central Park and beyond. Ideally positioned on the 12th floor, the views unfold from a perfect height with unobstructed open blue skies filling out every perspective. These two grand-scaled homes are perfectly positioned in one of the Upper West Sides finest full-service coops; an elegant prewar Rosario Candela building in the heart of it all. The combination of the two adjacent apartments would create a spectacular sun-filled home with numerous layout options including 3, 4 or 5 bedrooms, up to 5 bathrooms and a dramatic 35 to 40 formal entertaining expanse with 5 or more windows. Both apartments feature elegant, grand layouts and are in triple mint condition making it easy to combine as they are, yet the flexibility with both layouts and incredible square footage offers the new owner endless possibilities to customize! This elegant prewar building is known for its grand-scale interiors and this new combination home features high ceilings, beautifully proportioned rooms and open loft-like entertaining. Numerous oversized windows and extraordinary natural light streaming in all day only enhance the overall proportions. The elegance of prewar architecture is well-preserved throughout both apartments with beautiful new hardwood floors, pristine crown moldings, beamed and coffered ceilings and French doors. Modern renovations include new marble baths, renovated kitchens, high quality finishes, professional appliances and superb custom-fitted storage. 12D is grand, corner classic 6-room with open entertaining, 3 exquisitely renovated marble baths, a corner master suite, and a sleek eat-in kitchen with top-of-line appliances. 12E is a grand-scaled, bright and airy Eduardian 5-room with two exposures (north and south), abundant oversized windows, a vast open entertaining expanse and fantastic storage. This stunning home in mint condition features the best of prewar scale, detail and elegance. The open formal spaces are impressive in scale and benefit from cross light and air.
