With 16 ceilings and open city views through a wall of oversized windows, this prewar 3-BR 2-bath duplex condoperfectly located in the heart of the Upper West Sideis a true home in a sea of cookie-cutter apartments. The Pythian is known for its loft-like duplex layouts, but this voluminous space is special even within the building in that it offers three versatile bedrooms plus a generous and dramatic entertaining space.
The expansive great room (22 x 21) offers ample room for separate living and dining areas with exceptional double-height ceilings and enormous windows facing north with beautiful city views. The adjacent renovated kitchen opens to the living/dining area and is designed with a breakfast bar, abundant cabinet space, built-in wine cooler, and washer/dryer. Also on the main level is a generous master suite with the same open views to the north.
Upstairs, two equally spacious bedrooms (one currently open to the living room below) both have access to a large bath and a luxurious wood-paneled sauna.
The Pythian, a rare prewar condo with a 24-hour doorman, is ideally located within a small Upper West Side area that has a European flavor and is within easy reach of Central Park and the conveniences of Broadway.
