Property Description for 105 West 78th Street, 3

Turnkey renovated Upper West Side charmer with low monthlies! This beautiful floor-through prewar CONDO is located on one of the Upper West Side's prettiest blocks, just steps from the Museum of Natural History and one avenue from Central Park. The gracious living room, with 10-foot ceilings, a dining area, and custom built-in shelving, is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. The kitchen boasts a Wolf oven with an externally vented gas range, a Sub-Zero fridge, an 80-bottle wine cellar, an island with seating and abundant storage, and expansive countertops that any cook will appreciate. Right off the kitchen you'll find a charming balcony. The south-facing bedroom is bathed in light and offers ample closet space. The luxurious travertine stone bathroom is graced by Kohler fixtures, a glass-encased shower, and heated floors. There’s also a washer and vented dryer in the unit. Classic features like base and crown molding, strip hardwood floors, arched doorways, and staircases that lead into the living room are complemented by high-end modern finishes and fixtures throughout. The location is impossible to beat. Zabar’s, the shops and cafés of Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues, and the Sunday market by the museum are all a short walk away. The B and C trains at 81st Street and the 1 at 79th and Broadway put the rest of the city within easy reach. In 1890, architect and builder Joseph Turner put up a row of Renaissance Revival brownstones on West 78th Street. More than 130 years later and now part of the Upper West Side Historic District, No. 105 retains the grace of that era, and this 1 bedroom/1bathroom residence is a quiet, light-filled place to enjoy it.

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.
