201 West 70th Street, 23-B

Light-flooded and large, with splendid views east to Central Park and west to the Hudson River, a roomy private balcony, and a beautiful sense of flow between the generously proportioned living and sleeping wings: 201 W. 70th St., 23B, is the ideal Upper West Side home. Two king-sized bedrooms (including a primary ensuite with marble bath) are enhanced by copious closet space. Concrete pour between the floors insulates against noise, while oversized triple-pane windows enhance the serenity of soaring views. The layout is gracious and functional, with an unusually wide pass-through kitchen that pulls light from the east-facing dining room, a stack washer-dryer in-home, and under-window HVAC units for heating and cooling. The foyer is gallery-width and could easily serve as a library or home office. The balcony is an all-seasons delight, a serene perch to enjoy spreading sunsets over the Hudson River, and large enough to accommodate morning yoga and outdoor dining for two. And the living room and dining offer an ideal flow for entertaining, stretching over 27 feet. One Sherman Square is a full-service pet-friendly post-war co-op, with motor court, attached garage, community garden, roofdeck, gym, central laundry room, and of course, 24-hour doorman and concierge, along with live-in super. Property management is on-site. A capital improvement of three (3) times the monthly maintenance is paid by the buyer at closing. Subletting, pied-à-terre, co-purchasing, and gifting are permitted with board approval, making the building a flexible favorite. It’s also perfectly sited: directly adjacent to the 72nd Street transit hub, with 1/2/3 trains and the M72 bus right around the corner. Equidistant from Central and Riverside Parks, a short walk to the farmers markets at 66th/Broadway and north at the Museum of Natural History and a brief evening stroll to Lincoln Center and the Metropolitan Opera, One Sherman Square is at the heart of all that makes the UWS unique.
