Property Description for 256 West 75th Street

Exceptional, landmarked Manhattan townhouse on the Upper West Side, vacant and ready for conversion to a spectacular single-family home!

Approval from Landmark Preservation Commission and assignable construction loan both already in place. Proposed plans for one-family residence are available upon request and will result in approximately 7,000 square feet of sophisticated spaces providing an unparalleled quality of life. The team of experienced architects and builders are ready to complete the build-out at once.

The townhouse features airy ceilings of 10' to 11' throughout. The interior is approximately 5,100 square feet in addition to over 2,400 square feet of outdoor space including a large and sunny, south-facing garden as well as a roof deck with a BBQ grill and more space to unwind in the open air. The welcoming and grand Garden Floor offers a private vestibule, guest suite, family room with wine cellar as well as a living room adjacent to the home's garden. The Parlor Floor features an open design with an enormous chef's kitchen and formal dining area along with a private balcony. This floor also has direct access to the patio and garden.

Current plans include an incredible, full-floor master-suite with a fireplace, large walk-in closet, massive bathroom with dual windows, and a lovely terrace. The two upper floors of the house can host five more gracious bedrooms with en-suite baths or four bedrooms plus a home office or family room on the penthouse level, with space for a billiard table, as well as the roof deck to grill or sunbathe.

A commercial-grade elevator quickly whisks passengers through five levels of the home, from the basement to the penthouse. The proposed layouts include a large exercise room, a wine cellar, a sauna and a steam-shower bathroom. The garden floor has 11' ceilings. All metal framing has been completed, and renovations are now 40% done.

With its premier Upper West Side location and the chance to create a bespoke, New York City dream home, this townhouse is a rare find and extraordinary value. 256 West 75th Street offers easy access to Central Park and Riverside Park, Lincoln Center, Time Warner Center, Fairway, Citarella, Zabars, the Museum of Natural History, the New York Historical Society, the Beacon Theatre, numerous schools and some of the finest dining and shopping in New York City.

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.
