Property Details
Description
309 W 80th was designed and re-imagined by the famed Steven Harris. On one of the Upper West Side’s most desirable tree-lined blocks, moments from Riverside Park, sits a five-story Gothic Revival townhouse offering approximately 5,000 square feet of meticulously rebuilt interior space, with five bedrooms and five and a half baths. Originally dating to 1894 and set within a distinguished row of landmarked residences, the home was comprehensively reimagined through a full-scale gut renovation, preserving its historic façade while introducing a refined, modern architectural language. Defined by exceptional volume and light, the interiors offer a rare sense of openness, with consistently high ceiling heights across all five floors and unobstructed exposures both front and rear. The kitchen and dining level opens directly to a private landscaped garden through floor-to-ceiling glass, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection, anchored by custom millwork, integrated appliances, and radiant heated floors. The parlor level is scaled for formal entertaining, featuring soaring ceilings and a wood-burning fireplace. Above, the home is arranged as a series of well-proportioned bedroom levels, including a full-floor primary suite with a study, garden outlook, generous storage, and a spa-like bath. Additional bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned for privacy, each with en suite baths. The study retains its original Gothic character, softened by diffused stained glass. Two private terraces extend the living experience outdoors, and a top-level den with skylights offers a flexible space for media, recreation, or studio use. Modern infrastructure is fully integrated, including six-zone central HVAC, three wood-burning fireplaces, a full-house generator, central alarm system, video security, and whole-house audio. Set among the storied architecture of West 80th Street and within moments of Riverside Park, Zabar’s, and the Upper West Side’s most beloved cafés and boutiques, 309 West 80th Street represents the rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully reimagined townhouse that marries historic integrity with modern livability. A residence of both provenance and design distinction, it offers a compelling blend of heritage, scale, and contemporary ease in one of Manhattan’s most established residential enclaves.
