Come see for yourself this HUGE, VERSATILE TRIPLEX apartment in Lincoln Square. Primely located on a beautiful, tree-lined block between Central Park West and Columbus, unit 15 is the legal conversion of three apartments (9/11/15) into one! This triplex home is currently laid out as a 2 bedroom, 3 full bath apartment, over three floors, all south facing, with soaring ceilings. The cherry on top is an extra large private, rooftop terrace for all your gardening and dining desires. What could you do with this much space?
Let’s start on the lower level and let the hallway lead open into the once studio that is now acting as a living room. 10 foot ceilings top a fireplace and a bay window, looking south over Callery Pear blossoms. White painted brick walls and hardwood floors brighten and warm this airy space. Tucked in the back, a kitchen has been conveniently converted to a laundry room, and you will find the first full bathroom in the apartment, renovated to include a marble shower stall.
The primary ensuite, also once its own studio, is just off this living room. By far the biggest room in the whole unit, with its lofty ceilings, big windows and walk-in closet; this ensuite, complete with kitchenette adjacent to the bathroom, is nothing but space! A king size bed, desk, armoire, couch, chair, small table… and still more room. Office, yoga, meditation space… there’s plenty of room in this room for whatever room you need. Again, we find 10 foot ceilings, another fireplace and a big, southern bay window. The exposed brownstone walls remain their original shade and produce a cooling effect with the hardwood floors.
An interior staircase was added to bring us from the living space to the mid-level, which is currently designed for dining, and easily used as another entry point to the whole unit. A third fireplace and whitewashed brick walls lead the eyes up the 10 foot ceilings. Catch the tops of the blossoming pear trees outside the tall windows, surrounded by floor to ceiling, built-ins and cabinets spanning the south wall. A kitchen sits on the back of this mid-level floor and opens to the large dining room big enough for any table. Closets adjoin the kitchen wall and hide the staircase leading up to the highest floor.
The top level is divided in the middle with the huge outdoor terrace on the left and another large bedroom on the right. Enjoy breezy dining, gardening, or even a nighttime movie on the private, rooftop terrace overlooking the interior gardens of the block. Plenty of space for all activities!
Just inside a glass wall is a bright, short hallway leading to a fully renovated bathroom in sleek marble from sink to shower, and a very large bedroom. With exposed brick, hardwood floors and south facing treetop views overlooking 68th street this bedroom has more than enough room for all of your bedroom furniture and so, so much more!
Nestled in the treetops of a double-wide brownstone on a Central Park block, 61 W 68th street a boutique, pet friendly coop in an incredible location. This absolutely one of a kind apartment is a sprawling, flexible, upper west side dream. With views all day and private outdoor space, this giant two bedroom is one of the lowest ppsf in the neighborhood. See for yourself. Arrange your private showing today.
