Property Description for 61 West 68th Street, 5

61 West 68th Street is a double-wide Brownstone located on a prestigious Central Park block. This one bedroom/one and a half bathroom home bursts with charm and elegance. Soaring 11'6" ceilings combine with welcoming architectural details, seeing this home truly is believing.

Just one short flight up, this parlor floor home features four grand arched windows and basks in day long southern light. The generously proportioned footprint features an exposed brick wall with two arched entryways, and is appointed with two fireplaces (one working, one decorative).

The sprawling and versatile living area is the perfect place to relax and entertain. The oversized bedroom comfortably fits a king size bed with room enough for additional furniture, and features a walk-in closet leading to an ensuite master bathroom (with double sinks and stall shower).

The open planned kitchen, equipped with modern appliances and a breakfast bar, is the ideal place to start the day. This home encompasses a lofted sleeping area (and additional storage), and a separate powder room for guests. Punctuated with storage options throughout, including an expansive separate storage space next to the apartment entrance, this home is both thoughtful and functional.

61 West 68th Street is an intimate and immaculately managed 16 unit pet-friendly co-op with a centralized laundry room, and bicycle storage. This community is a mere stone's throw from Central Park, Lincoln Center, Whole Foods at the Time Warner Center, and Trader Joe's. The neighborhood is home to a myriad of cultural and culinary destinations, and proximate to major subway lines & buses.

Lincoln Square | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Centered, in name and location, around the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Lincoln Square’s history is heavily steeped in strong African American and Afro-Caribbean roots. Iconic jazz pianist, Thelonious Monk, is counted among its many former artistic and professional denizens.

The neighborhood is beloved for its amazing shopping, its distinguished art scene, and phenomenal restaurants--and don’t forget Central Park. From Lincoln Square, one is at the gateway to virtually everything New York City has to offer, either in your backyard or via excellent subway access.

With its beautiful pre-war architecture surrounded by some of NYC’s premier skyscrapers, Lincoln Square has become a safe, much sought after neighborhood. If you like living in the action, there are few places in the world that can rival Lincoln Square.
