Property Description for 138 Manhattan Ave

Welcome to 138 Manhattan Avenue - a meticulously reimagined five-story townhouse just one block from Central Park, offering dramatic proportions, thoughtful design, and extraordinary privacy in one of the Upper West Side's most authentic and connected neighborhoods.

From the moment you enter through oversized iron doors into a mudroom and gallery-style entry, the home sets a tone of elevated, livable elegance. The main living floor features double-height ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and oversized windows facing south and west, with no direct visibility from neighbors - a true rarity in NYC living.

One floor below, a full-level kitchen and dining floor boasts a 19-foot ceiling, sleek modern finishes, a walk-in pantry, and sliding glass doors that lead to a private, bamboo-lined garden - a rare and tranquil extension of your living space.

Upstairs, each bedroom spans the full width of the home, offering space, sunlight, and exceptional proportions. The primary suite features its own fireplace, spa bath, and skylight. A bright penthouse studio with a wet bar and roof deck adds flexible space for work, guests, or creativity.

Additional features include radiant heat floors, zoned central air, and smart systems throughout.

Townhouses offering this combination of scale, privacy, and design rarely come to market at this price point - where similar homes often exceed $6M. With exceptionally low monthly costs and no board or co-op restrictions, 138 Manhattan Avenue offers not just a rare home, but a rare opportunity for those who seek quality without compromise

Manhattan Valley | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Many New Yorkers have walked through this small neighborhood countless times but may be unfamiliar with its name, which is often folded into the vastness of the Upper West Side. An ameatuer might even confuse the neighborhood with Harlem, Morningside Heights, or make up a new geographically descriptive name like, Upper Upper Westside. Manhattan Valley is bounded by 110th Street to the north, 96th Street to the south, Central Park West to the east and Broadway to the west. 

Manhattan Valley is a diverse, mostly residential neighborhood that is rich in history. The north side of the neighborhood has no shortage of historic row houses and distinctive buildings designed in a Romanesque, Victorian Gothic and Queen Ann style of architecture. If you’re a fan of architecture this may be an ideal place to visit. Contrasting the neighborhood's classical architecture in the north are the modern buildings of Columbus Square on the south side.
