This exceptionally elegant 7-story single-family townhouse showcases luxury, functionality, and style throughout its over 7,300 SF of interiors. Originally constructed in 1885, the Queen Anne Style home was designed by the architects D & J Jardine. The current owners beautifully renovated the entire home from top to bottom to blend modern amenities and comforts with the timeless elegance of prewar architecture. Situated in a picturesque, tree-lined Central Park brownstone block in the Upper West Side's historic district, this stunning townhouse offers a wealth of luxurious features and showcases a harmonious mix of spectacular custom design elements and classic details. Every aspect of the home has been meticulously crafted, from its state-of-the-art systems to the high-quality materials and custom interiors. Unique for NYC townhomes, it boasts wonderful natural light throughout, with over 11-foot ceilings on the parlor floor, an open layout with double-height ceilings connecting the first and second floors, outdoor spaces on three floors, double exposures on the garden, parlor, and penthouse floors, oversized windows, and magnificent skylight at the peak of the house.
