Description

Every detail of this meticulously renovated massive Strivers' Row townhouse blends timeless historic character with modern sophistication, creating a truly extraordinary home. Rare amenities such as a private on-site 2 car garage are seamlessly integrated into its design, offering both convenience and exclusivity.

On the garden level, restored parquet hardwood floors, elegant decorative fireplaces, and original columns showcase the home's historic craftsmanship. Toward the rear, a formal dining area transitions into the state-of-the-art chef's kitchen, outfitted with a Wolf range, Bosch dishwasher, Summit wine cooler, and abundant custom cabinetry. A subway tile backsplash, polished fixtures, and thoughtfully placed wall sconces complete the space, while a separate laundry room with Whirlpool washer/dryer adds everyday ease.

Access the rarest of all Manhattan rarities - your own, private, 2 car garage - off the rear of this level.

The expansive cellar level is both stylish and versatile, featuring exposed brick and ceiling joists alongside a sprawling recreation room that can adapt to any need-home office, private gym, or media lounge. A fully outfitted wet bar with Caesarstone countertops, shaker cabinetry, and dual beverage centers makes it perfect for entertaining.

The upper levels are devoted to private living, with six spacious, light-filled bedroom suites across the second, third, and fourth floors. Five of the six bedrooms feature luxurious en-suite baths with radiant heated floors, Carrera marble tiles, and polished nickel finishes. The primary suite includes a private roof terrace, while other bedrooms are enhanced with Juliet balconies.

Crowning this remarkable home is a motorized glass skybox that opens to a full rooftop deck, a striking modern addition that brings outdoor living to new heights.

Set in the heart of historic Strivers' Row, 209 West 139th Street places you moments from St. Nicholas Park, beloved dining destinations, and neighborhood cafes. With the 2, 3, A, B, and C subway lines nearby, commuting and exploring the city is effortless.
