TIMELESS TREE-LINE CLASSIC w/EXPANSIVE EAT-IN KITCHEN & WASHER-DRYER

There are some homes that check off all the boxes: A location near Central Park; a meaningful architectural history; a classic yet flexible layout (see alternate plan) that works well for today's big life; large rooms; good light from three exposures; a peaceful/quiet vibe; leafy tree-line views; a grand foyer; a big windowed kitchen with dining bar and extra pantry; a large primary bedroom; a cheerful, dual entry, flexible dining room (bonus bedroom, anyone?); two full baths; a bonus laundry room; good closet space; office space; pet friendly; building courtyard space; live-in super; doorman; easy location; beamed ceilings; hardwood floors; and a comfy, easy-to-live radiance. All of these seem to be the very attributes that take the cake on the prime Upper Westside. Well, if you're keeping score and checking boxes, then your smile should be pretty big about now.

Soulful and easy-to-love, this double-corner, double exposure home is a winsome standout for all the best reasons. The light and scale come together with a plan and flow that really work. Beamed ceilings are 9'-2" above you, solid Oak planks are underfoot, and all around you is classic beauty. Form, function, and flow reign supreme in every room. From the well-scaled living room (big enough for a living/dining if you need to flex a 3BR out of current dining room) to both comfortable bedrooms (with big windows); and from the attractive and practical kitchen (with dining bar, super-ample cabinets, and stainless appliances -- and washer/dryer!) to the classic windowed baths (primary en suite), this feel-good find is so easy-to-live.

Designed by prized architect Emery Roth in 1925, this Central-Park block beauty is well positioned on the tree-line in its well-run, well-staffed building. The big lobby is classic, the courtyard has a basketball space, there are storage/bike/laundry rooms, ping pong, a playroom, and there is a live-in Super. Pet and pied-a-terre friendly, the enviable location of this home has supreme access to the area's best dining, shopping, cultural, fitness, and entertainment destinations. With Central Park on your block, the Columbus Avenue Shopping Corridor (Whole Foods & more) right up the street, the Children's Museum moving right down the street, and a plethora of easy transportation options (1, 2, 3, B, C trains & crosstown bus) nearby, life here is easy, convenient, flexible, and fun.
