Property Description for 250 West 88th Street, PH-803

This elegant and stylish 2 bedroom/2 bathroom prewar penthouse condominium has an enormous skylight, windowed walls, and is always bright and airy - a rare find on the Upper West Side!

A wonderful gut renovation transformed this home into a loft-like apartment. The top floor corner, open living room and dining room is very spacious with a wall of windows facing East and North and a 20-foot-wide, 16-foot high skylight ceiling. This open space is off the gourmet chef's kitchen; open for great flow, but separated for serious cooking and entertaining.

The kitchen was very carefully designed with custom wood cabinets and granite counters, an eat-in bar, high-end appliances, including Sub-Zero, Viking and Bosch, and endless counter and cabinet storage space.

The master bedroom faces North with great light and lots of sky, including two giant custom closets and a luxurious marble en-suite bathroom with double sinks and spa tub and shower. The second bedroom also faces North with lots of sky and a spacious closet, and is serviced by a gorgeous hall bathroom outfitted with beautiful Italian marble and glass tiles.

Other special features of this home are custom automatic shades, beautiful solid hardwood floors, a washer/dryer combo unit, custom lighting, and wiring for sound throughout.

250 West 88th Street is a full-service condominium with wonderful staff, 24-hour security, storage, bike room, laundry room and resident manager. Ideally located just 1 block from the nearest subway entrance, 2 blocks to fabulous Riverside Park, 3 blocks to Central Park - all in a tranquil neighborhood. This is a smoke-free building, and sorry, no pets allowed.

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.
