Property Description for 255 West 98th Street, 8-C
A TRULY MAGICAL UPPER WEST SIDE CLASSIC SIX
255 WEST 98TH STREET, APT 8C
YOUR HOME
Experience total serenity in this magical, corner classic six home with northern, western, and southern exposures. Carefully preserved pre-war details including French doors, hardwood floors with cherry inlay, and impressive ceiling height complement period-appropriate updates, making Residence 8C a rare gem. The focal point of this remarkable home is the rich mahogany paneled formal dining room adjacent to the sophisticated parlor with restored decorative fireplace where you’ll delight in hosting the most elegant of engagements. Let your culinary imagination run wild in the handsomely renovated, windowed chef’s kitchen. Situated next to the kitchen, the former staff quarters with en suite full bath make for an excellent guest bedroom, home office, study, or music room. At the west end of the home, you’ll find two nicely proportioned bedrooms, cedar closets, and tastefully updated bathroom. This one’s a real beauty. Magical, even.
YOUR BUILDING
255 West 98th Street is a handsome Upper West Side apartment house that was constructed in 1906 and converted to cooperative in 1984. This intimate building has only three apartments per floor over ten stories, is well-served by a resident superintendent who takes packages, and is crowned by a lush, planted roof deck with stunning city views – you’ll love entertaining here as much as in your magical home. Maintenance at 255 West 98th Street is very reasonable, and the co-op is known for its solid financials. The renovated pre-war lobby is quite something to behold with its gilded age marble and tile and luminescent stained glass. Even more magic!
YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD
From picturesque, tree-lined streets, to shopping, cafés, and world-class arts and entertainment venues – and with Central Park as its eastern border – this is the celebrated neighborhood for which so many yearn. Enjoy an evening of Shakespeare In The Park, or invite your guests to experience the wonderful American Museum of Natural History & Planetarium. For art, music, and film, look no further than nearby Lincoln Center – home to The New York Philharmonic, Metropolitan Opera, and New York City Ballet – The Juilliard School, Elinor Bunin Film Center, and Beacon Theatre to satisfy the desires of the most discerning devotee of art and culture. Numerous fitness centers are to be found in the area, and for those with culinary aspirations, who wouldn’t be thrilled to have West Side Market, WholeFoods, and Fairway all nearby? Welcome home!

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.
