Loft-Style Living on the Upper West Side: A Rare Gem with Breathtaking Views of the Hudson River & Riverside Park

Located in a beautifully maintained pre-war building, this stunning loft-style apartment offers an unparalleled living experience on the Upper West Side. With 10 windows strategically placed to capture breathtaking views of the Hudson River and Riverside Park, the home is flooded with natural light from the North, South, and West. Whether you're enjoying the sunrise or sunset, the views are absolutely captivating. The building itself is in excellent financial condition, with a history of stable maintenance increases and recent upgrades including completed LL cycles and a newly designed roof deck-perfect for evening sunsets just a few floors above your expansive fifth-floor living room.

Designed for those who love to entertain, the heart of this open-concept living space is the kitchen. Fully equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Dacor refrigerator, a Viking professional 6-burner range, a warming drawer, Bosch dishwasher, and a Cavelier range hood, this space is perfect for both home chefs and social gatherings. A Miele washer/dryer tucked away in the mudroom/laundry room adds convenience to everyday living.

Every inch of the home has been meticulously designed with custom cabinetry throughout, providing over 2000 cubic feet of storage. The exposed brick, re-pointed and sealed to perfection, offers a sense of history, while the modern upgrades (like the central HVAC system and new, double-hung, sealed, UV-coated windows) ensure comfort and quiet throughout the year.

The main suite has been thoughtfully designed to accommodate a king-sized bed, with custom-built double-height closets and drawers, some cedar-lined for added luxury. The en-suite primary bathroom features custom dual-sink cabinetry, high-end fixtures from Kohler, Duravit, Gessi, and Franz Vegener, as well as a Waterworks cast iron ceramic bathtub in the windowed second bath.

For those in need of additional flexibility, the queen-sized Murphy bed is perfect for guests, while the living area features a decorative original fireplace, adding character and warmth.
Every detail has been considered with soundproofing in mind, from the custom 6-inch wide Carlisle Engineered Walnut flooring with extra soundproofing to the full Crestron-controlled multi-room sound system, integrating Sonos and television seamlessly into custom cabinetry. The lighting throughout the apartment, controlled by Ketra, ensures the perfect ambiance at any time of day.

This is more than just a home-it's a lifestyle. Come experience the elegance, comfort, and timeless charm of this extraordinary Upper West Side loft. There is an assessment of $213.84 per month until September 2025.
