Property Description for 128 West 82nd Street
This handsome 5-story, 20-foot wide townhouse is located on a tree lined Upper West Side townhouse block. Delivered vacant, the owners of 128 West 82nd Street have engaged the renowned international architectural firm of 1100 Architect to complete LPC and DOB approved architectural plans. The plans provide for a distinctive and modern design of space and light expanding the existing 6,700 sq. ft. This presents a ready to build opportunity for a one or two family home with elevator and plenty of outdoor space. A rare feature is the existing deep two story rear extension with a vista over lush gardens and greenery on every side. Equally rare are 11' ceilings on both the Parlor and 3rd Floor. The building is built 95' deep on two extensions.
Garden Floor
Enter under the stoop through the front garden to a full floor guest apartment with rear garden. From this floor the elevator and stairway provide access to the above four floors.
Parlor Floor
From the top of the stone stoop, enter the first of four magnificent floors. The design calls for an elegant entry hall, study, dining room and kitchen. The ceilings on this floor are 11'. Adjacent to the kitchen is an entertaining terrace which overlooks the rear gardens. A row of glass windows lets in a tremendous amount of light, and the views of the outdoor gardens are green and lush.
Third Floor
Also with 11' ceilings, the formal living room, library and media room will offer grand entertaining opportunities. And there will be another large terrace off of this floor overlooking the lush gardens below.
Fourth Floor
The fourth floor contains the master bedroom suite and another bedroom with ensuite bath. This could easily be an office.
Fifth Floor
Of course, with an elevator, the fifth floor won't be hard to reach, especially for the younger set. There are two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms proposed. There is also a day room in between the bedrooms that could be used as an office, play room or media center. There is additional storage on this floor as well.
Cellar
The cellar will be excavated to a 9' ceiling height. In addition to the mechanicals and elevator equipment, there is lots of space for a gym, other recreational space or storage.

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.
