Welcome to one of the rarest finds on the Upper West Side.
Apt. # 2/3C, at The Powellton, located at 229 West 97th St. is an enormous 8 room home, featuring 4-bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and a home office. (Room to add one additional full bath) Let's go into why this home is so special. If you love to showcase your most beloved art pieces on the wall, this home is a must see.

The layout offers a 22' wide by 65' deep floorplan. The immense size is wider and deeper than most fully built townhouses in the city. The ceilings are roughly 12' in height, nearly 3,500 sqft, recessed lighting throughout, meticulously maintained original exposed brick throughout, top-of-the line audio system, Washer & Gas Dryer and a kitchen a chef would love to use.

One of the first things to notice as you enter is the gorgeous brick expression architecture throughout the entire home. The entry foyer is very bright and spacious; also welcomes you into the home and at the same time, gently pushes you forward. As you notice the sheer size of the wood flooring and the oversized loft windows that are nearly 70' away, you're lead inside the lounging area, passed the chef's kitchen, into the dramatic loft style living room & dining room with southern and western exposures. Beautifully exposed brick walls appointment the opposite side of the home along with gorgeous Australian Jarrah wood flooring throughout both floors. In the living room there is a decorative fireplace with a subwoofer built inside the wall along with a wall of over-sized windows that bring in natural sunlight.

The Kitchen features a Galaxy Black granite countertop center-island that is equipped with two freezers and open to the entertainment space. There is endless Mahogany cabinetry throughout and top-of-the-line Wolf and Sub-zero appliances including a 35-bottle temperature-controlled wine refrigerator and a built-in flat screen TV. The stove is Viking, and the ventilation hood is Miele which conveniently vents out of the building.

This home also comes custom wired with the latest Audio/Visual system putting all music and home theater at the touch of your fingertips. It even has state of the art hidden speakers throughout nearly the entire first floor with a hidden sub-woofer in the kitchen ceiling and extra in-the-wall cabling if you feel the desire to extend the sound system to the second floor.

As you enter 2C, there is king size bedroom with en-suite stone bath, which can be used as guestroom or live-in help, and a separate marble powder room for guests in the foyer. This floor is perfect for hosting gatherings and events too. All of this while providing privacy for the bedrooms upstairs. As you ascend the brilliantly designed floating staircase, you will find three more bedrooms, a home office, two full baths and a high-end Washer/ Gas Dryer. The pin drop quiet primary bedroom offers enormous custom-built walk-in closets and a fabulous his and her bathroom.
