Property Description for 160 West 85th Street, 5-FG

MARVELOUSLY-SCALED MID-CENTURY ON THE TREE-LINE

GIFTS, GUARANTORS, CO-PURCHASES & PIED-A-TERRES WELCOME (case by case)

WELL-RUN BOUTIQUE BUILDING w/SWEET BACKYARD GARDEN

Ideally positioned on the tree-line, this large home is supremely situated in its boutique, well-run, 1950 mid-block beauty-of-a-building (with a live-in Super, laundry, storage, bike racks, & backyard garden). Expansive and flexible, this big residence is a cheerful choice in a supreme location.

With its large, sunken, flexible living room, its generous foyer and gallery spaces (ideal for art), its open plan dining gallery (comfortably seats 6+), and its upgraded, windowed kitchen with dishwasher, this feel good residence -- with 5 handsome arches -- offers comfort, convenience, and heartwarming Mid-Century detail.

The two main bedrooms are gloriously scaled -- with room enough for en suite seating and dressing areas -- and offer enviable closet spaces (the jumbo main bedroom is a former living room, and offers room for an office, a seating area, and a mega walk-in closet big enough to Zoom in!) The third bedroom is a flex space -- an ideal guest room -- a perfect office -- a dandy den -- or a marvelous mix of all of these.

High ceilings, solid Oak floors, awesome arches, and generous closet space combine with a unique, practical, stretch-out layout — creating a big, happy home that is easy to live and easy to love.

With prime access to every area cultural, dining, shopping, market, and fitness destination -- and equidistant to Central and Riverside Parks -- this pet friendly residence, with a plethora of easy transportation options, is a winsome choice for sure.

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.
