YOUR HOME
Welcome home to this charming, 19-foot-wide townhome located on the one of the most desirable, tree-lined blocks of the Upper West Side. With five bedrooms and five-and-one-half baths and a three-bedroom apartment with income-producing potential on the top floor, this very practical home boasts over 5600 square feet of living space along with three outdoor spaces, including a 450+ square foot patio. The house’s roof was replaced in 2022 and may be restored to a functional roof deck should the purchaser choose.

Upon entering the garden level, you’ll be met by a well-designed chef’s kitchen with island, abundant built-in storage, oversized dining area, and casual family room. Ascend to the parlor level and be amazed by fourteen-foot ceilings soaring above the spacious formal living and entertaining area, adjacent home office, and den/library. Descend to the cellar to find a gymnasium, maid’s quarters, laundry room with two sets of washers and dryers, full bathroom, and additional storage.

Located on the upper floors, well-appointed bedrooms – two with private terraces – and additional living spaces make this home a remarkably appealing offering for those looking for a comfortable, livable home needing only minor updates at an attractive price point. Seeking a well-located UWS condominium or coop unit but haven’t found the space or privacy you desire but never considered that a townhome might be a possibility? Look no further.
