Located just steps from Riverside Park on a quintessential tree-lined block, this classic building represents a once-in- a-lifetime opportunity to procure a can’t-miss income-generating property or to craft the Upper West Side townhouse home of your dreams. Built in the alluring Renaissance Revival style in 1896, this handsomely renovated 20-foot- wide townhouse retains remarkable pre-war charm alongside coveted modern conveniences. Currently configured with seven rental units (4 rent-regulated and the rest decontrolled) plus a stunning owner's triplex with south-facing garden, the building is ideal as a live-in home with income, an investment property or reconfigured as a stately single-family home. In 2011, the owner's three-bedroom triplex, occupying the first three floors, was meticulously renovated, expanded and reinforced with new steel beams that will last another century. Here, oversized living spaces are paved with gleaming hardwood floors and topped by ultra-high ceilings, while outdoor spaces flank each floor. The spacious kitchen contains ample cabinet space and full-size stainless steel appliances highlighted by sunny backyard views from large windows and a sliding glass door. The basement has been dug out and expanded to provide the perfect rec room space and large laundry room, while the second floor houses lovely bedrooms and well-appointed bathrooms, including the palatial master suite. The attractively finished rental units occupy the top three floors. The four free market apartments (including the triplex) can be delivered vacant or with tenants.
308 West 78th Street is a gorgeous limestone and gray roman brick building anchoring a row of four houses built by J. W. Davison. Set between West End Avenue and Riverside Drive in the West End-Collegiate Historic District, the coveted delights of Upper West Side living surround the home on all sides. To the west lies sprawling Riverside Park, the Hudson River Greenway and the Boat Basin, while just blocks to the east you'll find the American Museum of Natural History and Central Park. Transportation is effortless with 1, B and C trains and numerous bus lines nearby.
