Property Description for 71 West 89th Street

Best Townhouse Value
Park-Block Create an Owner's Triplex

The bookend design of this townhouse sets it apart from all the other row houses on the street. The front room on each floor juts out above the entry, such that you can see the beautiful row of townhouses all the way down to Central Park. Create your owner's triplex from the vacant apartments on the cellar, garden, and parlour floors. Currently configured as seven apartments, four of the seven will be delivered vacant. This could also be ideal for a pied-à-terre or long-term buy and hold investment.

Boasting high ceilings and large windows, each apartment feels open and bright. There are charming artistic touches throughout such as pressed tin backsplashes, a stylized fresco in the garden rear unit, and a custom ironwork fence designed by well-known artist Ken Hiratzuka. Nothing on the market right now can beat this price point. In addition to the Park, Columbus Avenue's shopping and dining, as well as access to the 1, 2, 3, B, and C trains, are only steps away.

Layout

Garden Level:
The garden level has a front studio apartment and rear duplex with one and a half baths, garden access, and a lower level home office/recreation room.

Second Floor and Third Floors:
Both the second and third floors have front studios and rear one-bedroom apartments. Each unit is flooded with natural light and high ceilings.

Fourth Floor:
This loft-like floor has a sunny, spacious floor-through apartment. Highlights include eleven-foot ceilings, southern-exposures, skylights, a sunken living and bedroom, and a rear artist's studio with a lovely view of the Upper West Side skyline.

Cellar:
This floor is comprised of the recreation room from the garden rear duplex, storage, and housing for the building mechanicals.

Upper West Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Bracketed on its east and west borders by massive city parks, the Upper West Side (UWS) is known for its greenery, stately and elegant townhomes, safe streets and great schools, all of which make it a very desirable neighborhood for families. The UWS has maintained its community feeling, making it attractive to young professionals and retirees, both of whom want a sense of belonging in the place they call home.

Here you’ll find many apartment buildings, especially those along Central Park West. Historic architecture abounds, anchored by four luxury co-ops - the San Remo, Majestic, Century and Eldorado apartments - all of which have two towers on their interiors. They were built in the 1930s and their design was predicated on a 1929 building code that imposed a height limit on residences facing the street. There are also impressive row houses near Riverside Drive throughout the W 70 and 80 Streets. Above the 90s, you will find smaller buildings where walk-ups are very reasonably priced.

There are several world-class museums and venues dedicated to the performing arts. Plentiful dining can be found in the UWS. You will find everything from quaint Jewish delis serving up bagels and a schmear to sophisticated fine dining that has earned multiple Michelin stars, and everything you could possibly want in between. There is also abundant shopping and a vibrant nightlife.
