Property Description for 160 West 85th Street, 6-K

Top floor. Great light. Open views. Prime Location. Low maintenance. What's not to love?

Some apartments just check all the boxes. This one delivers on the things that matter most: light, views, and remarkably low carrying costs. Perched on the sixth and top floor, this sun-filled one-bedroom enjoys open views stretching all the way to Midtown, with southern and western exposures that bring in beautiful natural light. An updated open kitchen with breakfast bar flows seamlessly into the living space, while an updated bathroom makes moving in easy.

And the real standout? Maintenance of just $1,091 per month. A rare find on the Upper West Side.

The location is one of the apartment's greatest assets. Just a few blocks from Central Park and within easy reach of Riverside Park, residents have access to two of Manhattan's most beloved green spaces. The American Museum of Natural History, Theodore Roosevelt Park and the Columbus Avenue Greenmarket are also nearby, offering everything from cultural attractions to fresh local produce. Zabar's, Fairway, Citarella, Trader Joes and Whole Foods make everyday grocery shopping convenient.

Some of our favorite neighborhood restaurants are right around the corner; Barney Greengrass, Eléa, Celeste, and Bustan. Jacob's Pickles is another popular neighborhood destination, while Dagon on Broadway, The Milling Room and Essential by Christophe offer excellent options for a more elevated night out.

Transportation is excellent, with the 1 train at 86th Street and the B/C trains at 86th Street and Central Park West. The 1 train at 79th Street and the B/C at 81st Street-Museum of Natural History provide additional options. Plus there is the 86th Street crosstown bus to get you to the East Side with ease.

160 West 85th Street is an established, six-story, 60-residence elevator cooperative situated on a quiet, tree-lined block in the heart of the Upper West Side. Residents enjoy a live-in superintendent, central laundry room, shared garden, bicycle storage and personal storage. There is an assessment of $264.60 per month for roof repairs. Co-purchasing and part-time residences are permitted, while gifting, parents purchasing for children and guarantors are considered on a case-by-case basis. Pets are welcome, and financing of up to 80% is permitted. The cooperative offers particularly flexible purchasing policies and has a max of 33% debt to income ratio.

Top floor. Double exposures. Sun-drenched. Open Midtown views. Updated kitchen and bath. Flexible co-op policies. Exceptionally low maintenance. These are the features buyers consistently value, regardless of market conditions. Residence 6K offers more than a beautiful place to live. It's a smart long-term purchase with qualities that never go out of style.

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.
