Property Description for 172 West 82nd Street, 4-C

TOWNHOUSE "PENTHOUSE" 

BIG PRIVATE TERRACE, WORKING FIREPLACE & TREE-LINE VIEWS IN TROPHY LOCATION

SOULFUL STUNNER:  BRIGHT BI-LEVEL BEAUTY w/BONUS SUNROOM, HIGH CEILINGS, GREAT STORAGE & EXPOSED BRICK

A stroll down a tree-lined street -- one of the Upper Westside's best -- brings you to a lovely, unassuming, historical house.  A gentle few flights up -- easy and elegant -- brings you to a lovely, unassuming, door at the top of the boutique townhome.  That door is the portal to a very special place. Lovely and unassuming?  Sure -- but also magical, comforting, dramatic, peaceful, sun-filled and beautiful.  Here is a soul-stunner of pre-war bliss -- a "penthouse" in the treetops -- a duplexed dandy that shines brightly and lives sweetly.  Here is a home whose character and spirit feel good -- and stay in your heart forever.

Downstairs gives you a wood burning fireplace, exposed brick, high ceilings, a sweet kitchen, and a living room that allows you to stretch out and get cozy.  Big windows feature bright treetops, and a special jut-out bay window puts you right on the tree-line with a unique perspective on the landmarked block below.  

Upstairs is the queen-sized bedroom, full classic bath, a huge walk-in closet, and a bonus sunroom.  The sunroom is surrounded on two sides by dramatic window walls, making this your wonderful bit of extra:  Here is your den, your office, your napping space, a guest area.  

Outside is what amps up the magical vibes of this rare and winsome home.  Here is your own piece of al fresco heaven.  Surrounded by trees, greenery, big sky views, and inspiring architecture, this large private terrace has room for multiple lounging areas, and makes this home an entertainer's delight.  When you retreat to this outdoor oasis, your soul will smile. This is your private Eden.  Here -- with the drama of the city and open skies gleaming all around you -- meals will be shared, plants will bloom, moments will be savored, memories will be made. Over sunrise coffees and starlight drinks, you'll savor, center, and shine -- all from your own special corner of the sky.

Atop it all, this pocket "penthouse" enjoys a prime perch in its pet-friendly building whose enviable location comes with bragging rights: Moments away are most every area cultural, shopping, dining, fitness, and entertainment destination -- not to mention equidistance from Central and Riverside Parks, and a plethora of easy transportation options. With a central laundry and storage, life here is convenient, easy, and fun.

Here's the special space that will make you feel alive -- joyful.  You'll feel comforted -- inspired.  You'll feel right at home.  A sweet townhouse "penthouse" life awaits.

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.
