Property Description for 176 West 87th Street, 7-C
LIGHT-FILLED, LARGE & LIVELY PRE-WAR CLASSIC
FANTASTICALLY FLEXIBLE, COVETED CORNER 2BR HEART-WARMER w/BIG BONUS DINING ROOM
BELOVED PRE-WAR BUILDING w/GORGEOUS CITY-VIEW ROOF GARDEN, NEW GYM, PLAYROOM, & STORAGE
There is a beautiful elegance and practicality to a classic design. Something about the original plan, the original lines, and the original scale come together in perfect harmony and they just work. Timeless.
Here is the marvelous, upgraded, move-in classic whose form and function meld perfectly to create a practical and pretty, sun-splashed home that can handsomely host all of your growing needs. Relevant.
Underfoot are beautiful hardwood floors, above are soaring high ceilings, and all around you are soulful period details and 13 big windows. Everywhere, there is sunshine. Bright.
A large, welcoming foyer/gallery ushers you into the large living room — a comfy space with custom built-ins, and fantastic French doors that bring you to the over-scaled dining room. The graceful flow and flexibility that exists between these two adjacent rooms is superb, and easy entertaining is ideal here. Elegant.
The bright, windowed, eat-in kitchen offers ample vintage cabinets and good counter space, an attractive suite of appliances, and the sweetest windowed half-bath you’ve ever seen. If you’re a fan of the open concept, this ideal cook space can be reimagined and reinvented — opened up to a lofted living/dining space, and a washer/dryer added (all with board approval — please see potential alternate plan). Flexible.
The separation of the bedroom wing from the entertaining rooms is smart and gracious. Down the long gallery hall are two large bedrooms: A king-sized, corner primary bedroom with two sunshiny exposures (cross breezes anyone?), and a well-scaled, cheerfully bright guest room. Both big bedrooms are served by a handsome windowed bath with a restored, vintage cast-iron soaking tub. Peaceful.
With a location close to every area cultural, dining, shopping, and fitness destination – and a plethora of easy transportation options – this is the easy-to-love and easy-to-live residence — equidistant from Central and Riverside Parks —that stands out for all the right reasons. Convenient.
Supremely perched in the coveted, corner line in its full-service, well-run, well-staffed, Rouse & Goldstone designed building, this rare classic is a winsome standout. Ideally set in its pet and pied-a-terre friendly building, this stellar home enjoys all the benefits of a resident manager, laundry/bike/storage rooms, stunning planted roof deck, gorgeous lobby, new gym, and playroom. Amenities.
If you yearn for a winning mix of classic style and practicality, then this flexible, winsome residence will inspire your senses and melt your heart. Home.

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.
