6 West 95th Street

Park-block townhouses are rare, and this one is an incredible find. You’ll fall for its high ceilings, elaborately carved facade, amazing location, and multiple outdoor spaces. Make a home in the elegant owner’s triplex while collecting income from the three rental units on the upper levels, or make this house your perfect single-family home. There is an enviable combination of old and new throughout the building: enjoy the original woodwork and Juliet balconies, along with the new paint jobs, recently re-sanded and re-stained floors, and top-of-the-line kitchen appliances.

95th Street is renowned as being one of the prettiest and most sought-after park blocks. And Central Park is just thirty seconds away!

Garden Level:
This is the lower level of the owner’s triplex. From the street entrance beneath the stoop, you pass through an entryway with a tall mirror and storage for shoes. Six steps up you’ll find a charming and comfortable dining room; two tall windows with original shutters look out to the street. The kitchen rests just behind it, with appliances by Jenn Air, a concealed refrigerator within the blonde wood cabinetry, a state-of-the-art garbage disposal, pretty cyan tile backsplash, and blue-gray granite counters. A bar area allows for additional seating.

A hallway to the sitting room contains multiple storage closets, an entrance to the basement, and a full bath. This sitting room is graced by built-in shelving and glass double doors to the sizable south garden. This brick-paved garden is a great outdoor space, with a picket fence, a strong tree, and flower beds for your green thumb. A rear room, currently used as a children’s play area, could also become an office, studio, or guest bedroom.

Parlour Level:
As you enter from the street, note the intricate lovely carvings above the front door and along the stoop. The master suite of the triplex can be found on this floor. With soaring ceilings, plentiful closet space, garden views, and recently restored hardwood floors, this master suite is a private oasis. The full bath at the rear has white marble counters.

At the front of this floor is the first of the rental units: a well-appointed studio apartment with a lofted bed. This apartment enjoys the same high ceilings as the master suite. The two large front-facing windows lead to Juliet balconies overlooking the street.

Third Floor:
A spiral staircase from the center of the parlour floor leads to the top floor of the owner’s luxury triplex. A bedroom with two large windows looks out onto the garden. The high ceilings of the parlour floor continue here for a feeling of openness and light. At the very rear, you’ll find a nook that could be an office, a large walk-in closet, or a guest bedroom with a lofted bed. In the hallway leading to the front of the floor, you’ll find a separate shower and toilet, as well as a washer and dryer.

At the front of the building are two more bedrooms, separated by pocket doors. These bedrooms could easily be combined into one space, or repurposed as offices, play rooms, ateliers, or whatever your heart desires.

Fourth Floor:
Take note of the sunshine from the skylight as you ascend the stairs. Two more studio apartments rest on this floor, with recently re-sanded and re-stained gorgeous hardwood floors. The rear apartment has its own planked terrace looking over the garden, the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine or a good book.

Cellar Level:
This large unfinished basement has ample storage space and well-maintained mechanicals.
