A gracious entry foyer sets an elegant tone upon arrival, unfolding into a residence defined by timeless architecture and thoughtful modern enhancement. Soaring 10’7” beamed ceilings, impeccably preserved prewar details, and a striking decorative fireplace create a sense of grandeur, while curated upgrades bring a seamless sophistication to every space.
In a distinction seldom found in New York City, every room is graced with its own window—including both bathrooms and the kitchen—immersing the home in natural light and fresh air throughout the day. For the discerning collector, professionally installed CoolVu window film provides museum-quality UV protection, preserving fine art and furnishings without compromising the brilliance of the light or the drama of the views. Expansive wall space further enhances the home’s appeal as a true gallery-like setting.
Recently refreshed in Benjamin Moore’s White Dove, the residence presents as a pristine canvas, anchored by a dramatic pair of custom built-in bookcases in Kendall Charcoal that frame the French doors of the second bedroom. This versatile room transitions effortlessly as a refined home office, library, dining salon, or guest suite.
The European-inspired chef’s kitchen is both elegant and functional, outfitted with premium Thermador appliances—including range, dishwasher, and microwave—alongside a Sub-Zero refrigerator. Slate tile flooring and bespoke finishes complete a space designed for elevated everyday living and effortless entertaining.
The primary suite is a private sanctuary, thoughtfully positioned beyond its own vestibule to ensure exceptional quiet and separation. Generously proportioned and serene, it is complemented by a beautifully renovated en-suite bath, offering a spa-like retreat within the home.
The building itself reflects the same level of care and distinction. A recently redesigned lobby welcomes residents with understated elegance, while each landing has been meticulously updated with silk wall coverings, plush carpeting, and refined lighting. Residents enjoy strong cooperative financials and a suite of amenities including a beautifully appointed roof deck with open skyline views, a fitness center, additional laundry facilities, and dedicated private storage.
Perfectly positioned on a wide, tree-lined stretch of West 86th Street between West End Avenue and Riverside Drive, this exceptional residence places you moments from Riverside Park, transportation, and the very best of Upper West Side living.
