Property Description for 244 West 75th Street

Steps from the hustle and bustle of Broadway, a stylish townhouse dating back to 1885 awaits. The building was completely renovated and restored to single-family glory in 2006. The parlour floor–with its romantic turret window–was updated in 2016 and boasts a beautiful open layout that melds sitting and dining spaces with a chef’s kitchen.

Additional highlights include five bedrooms, four full and two half baths, a spacious recreation room with wet bar, three private terraces, and a large manicured garden.

The townhouse is located close to fabulous restaurants, express subway lines, and local landmarks including Lincoln Center, the American Museum of Natural History, and both Central and Riverside Parks. This is a turn-key, must-see property.

Garden Floor
The garden floor has a private entrance under the stoop. The front of the floor is occupied by a mudroom as well as a dedicated room for the townhouse mechanicals. The center of the floor hosts a generously-sized room that could serve as a home office or hobbyist studio.

The rear of the garden floor opens to a huge, sunken family room with space for media units, game areas, or even a home gym. There is also a wet bar, storage closets, plenty of windows, and direct access to the meticulously cared for garden. A powder room completes the floor.

Parlor Floor
Pass through the entrance vestibule and bask in this magnificently renovated parlour floor. The layout was updated in 2016 and embraces an open-flow concept, which is ideal for entertaining. From the front living room you can see through the centrally located formal dining area and outstanding kitchen all the way to the rear terrace and sun-soaked garden. Doorways have been opened up for ease of access to the grand stairwell too.

The kitchen is both a showstopper and a workhorse. Boasting full-height custom cabinetry, marble and quartz countertops, a center island, and a large banquet for casual seating, the space is designed to handle anything and everything. Moreover, it is fully-equipped with top-of-the-line appliances including a large range, built-in microwave, and dishwasher. A large pantry and adjacent powder room are also located at the rear of the parlour floor.

Third Floor
A stately master bedroom suite occupies the rear of the third floor. In addition to the splendid ceiling height, large windows, and refined touches that include recessed lighting, the suite boasts a large private terrace. The master bathroom is adorned with beautiful Ann Sacks tile and amenities such as a soaking tub, steam shower, and radiant heat flooring.

Another bedroom, or potential home office, is situated at the front of the third floor. It has three large windows, a working gas fireplace, and ensuite bath.

Fourth Floor
The fourth floor hosts two spacious bedrooms that share a full bath, which is adjacent to the main hall. A linen closet and laundry room complete the floor.

Fifth Floor
A spiral staircase leads to the apex of this townhouse, which is a half floor (Landmarks friendly) addition. It contains a bright room with an ensuite bath. A roof deck is accessible from the room, and the floor has a dedicated cooling system.

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.
