About This Home
101 West 78th Street - A Townhouse in the Sky
A rare opportunity to own this one-of-a-kind five bedroom, four and a half bath duplex spanning approximately 4,500 square feet at The Evelyn, where timeless prewar grandeur meets contemporary refinement.
Perched on the fifth and sixth floors, the residence is surrounded by treetops and bathed in natural light from open east and west exposures. The expansive great room, anchored by a gas fireplace, offers elegant flow for entertaining and everyday living-overlooking Roosevelt Park, the Planetarium, and the Museum of Natural History.
A flexible layout allows for multiple bonus spaces-ideal for a home office, gym, media room, or guest suite. The serene primary suite features radiant-heated floors and an oversized soaking tub, creating a private, spa-like retreat. Custom millwork, abundant closets, and thoughtful storage enhance the home's sophistication and livability.
Moments from Central Park and the city's best dining and cultural destinations, The Evelyn is a full-service condominium originally designed by Emile Gruwe in 1886 and reimagined by AD100 designer Stephen Sills. Restored and converted in 2017, the building seamlessly blends 19th-century architecture with 21st century luxury featuring 10'6" ceilings, oversized windows, wide plank white oak herringbone floors, hand-painted Smallbone of Devizes kitchens, honed Carrara marble, and Waterworks fixtures.
Residents enjoy a 24-hour attended lobby, fitness center, children's playroom, bicycle storage, and cold storage.
A grand, bespoke Upper West Side home- rare in scale, flexible in design, and timeless in character.
