Among the most recognizable homes on the block due to its eclectic blend of architectural styles popular in the late 19th century,...Spacious quadruplex | historic townhouse | landmark uws block 135 west 81st street, apt a Your home Perfectly situated on the crest of one of the Upper West Side’s most memorable, colorful and well-preserved row house blocks, 135 West 81st Street is a magical, nearly 20-foot-wide townhome that has been lovingly and meticulously maintained by the same owners for generations. Among the most recognizable homes on the block due to its eclectic blend of architectural styles popular in the late 19th century, its stately facade radiates uncommon charm with eye-catching details that include a storybook ornamental iron Juliet balcony off the third floor. Monumental, carved solid oak doors with whimsical green glass portholes stand as welcoming sentinels, providing a foretaste of the captivating home that exists within. It is indeed rare that the details present in this townhome have been preserved in magnificent fashion, including handsomely refinished original hardwood floors, restored, operational wooden window shutters, a collection of whimsical decorative fireplaces, and a grand, mahogany staircase connecting one spacious, sprawling floor to the next. Not everything about this home evokes the living styles and preferences of 1886, the year the townhouse was conceived, however. If one could peer through the walls, behind them may found modern, electrical wiring, extensively upgraded plumbing – including a water pressurization system and auxiliary hot water reservoir serving the en-suite, primary bathroom and allowing for luxurious, long-soaking bathing – and cable/internet outlets throughout the home. Make no mistake – while embodying all the beauty of classic, gilded age New York architecture, this home is well-suited for the discerning tenant who desires functional systems within an atmosphere of quiet elegance and privacy. First floor Entry foyer Elegant parlour w/ oversized, sunny southern exposures Separate sitting room Impressive, 12-foot ceilings Second floor South-facing, formal dining room capable of hosting large dinner parties Well-equipped, ventilated kitchen w/ quality appliances & custom cupboards framed by frosted glass sliding doors Powder room Third floor South-facing primary bedroom suite En-suite bath featuring soaking tub & standing shower North-facing second bedroom/library/sitting room Home office/nursery Terrace w/ electricity & running water Communications closet w/ wiring for internet & audio Fourth floor North-facing third bedroom South-facing fourth bedroom One & a half baths Laundry room w/ full size washer & vented dryer. Your neighborhood From picturesque, tree-lined streets, to shopping, cafés, and world-class arts and entertainment venues – and with Central Park as its eastern border – this is the celebrated neighborhood for which so many yearn. Enjoy an evening of Shakespeare In The Park, or invite your guests to experience the wonderful American Museum of Natural History & Planetarium. For art, music, and film, look no further than nearby Lincoln Center – home to The New York Philharmonic, Metropolitan Opera, and New York City Ballet. Numerous fitness centers are to be found in the area, and for those with culinary aspirations, who wouldn’t be thrilled to have Citarella, Fairway, and Zabar’s all within a few blocks? Access & general notes Residence A is accessed via the main entrance to the townhome, which is private, and not shared with the owner’s unit. No texts, please. Thank you.
