This high-first-floor residence offers the convenience of an elevator-free living while its elevated position provides the feel and perspective of a second-floor apartment. Soaring 10-foot ceilings, beautiful oak hardwood floors, and lovely prewar details add warmth and character throughout.
A gracious foyer leads into the well-proportioned living room, while the beautifully renovated bathroom features classic subway tile, new fixtures, and a stall shower.
The renovated pass-through kitchen features a window, quartz countertops, glass-tile backsplash, glass-front cabinetry, and a convenient breakfast bar opening to the spacious living room.

Set in a peaceful residential setting, this inviting home offers the best of both worlds: a tranquil Upper West Side retreat with the energy and convenience of New York City close at hand.
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.
