About This Home
Welcome to 125 W 87th St, a remarkable single-family townhouse nestled just 1.5 blocks from Central Park. No detail has been overlooked in this exquisitely renovated brownstone. With 4,900 square feet of luxurious living space, offering an unparalleled urban sanctuary with sleek sophistication, thoughtful design, and modern amenities like an elevator and smart home system.
As you step inside, the rich allure of hardwood floors guides you through fifteen meticulously designed rooms, including five spacious bedrooms and six and a half elegant bathrooms, all with radiant heat floors.
Enter at the garden level and be welcomed by an efficient mudroom with plenty of storage for a busy household. Then step into the heart of the home - a bright welcoming ground level space that houses a casual sitting area, powder room, and spectacular kitchen with double height dining area. In the sleek Valcucine kitchen all of the elite appliances are integrated to disappear from sight when not in use. Counter balanced and recessed cabinetry is elegant and easy to maneuver, making storage a breeze. For outdoor lovers, the back glass wall elevates open to blend the dining area seamlessly into the beautiful back yard, which has built-in sound and irrigation systems.
Head up to the parlor level via the floating staircase leading up to the formal living and dining rooms. The warmth of an extra large gas fireplace with massive stone surround provides cozy ambiance to the chic living area, which overlooks the double height dining area below. With the touch of a button you can lower the shades in this room to create the perfect theatre setting with a seamlessly concealed home theatre system that is controlled via the Savant smart home app. The dining room to the front of the parlor includes a wet bar and wine fridge and the area can be cordoned away from the foyer with beautiful sliding glass panels by Dom Interiors.
An impressive center staircase in the house takes you up to the gorgeous custom bedrooms, all with unique personalities. So much love and thought have gone into the design of these rooms. All are spacious and practical with plenty of light and all have their own bathrooms. The primary is a particular stunner with a an entire wall of windows, Juliet balcony and a spa bath just through the dressing area with enormous walk in closet.
On the top floor of this house, you'll find the unique penthouse suite with sitting area, terrace and glass atrium bedroom and bath with spectacular vistas of the landmarked townhouses and beyond.
Head down to the fully finished basement where you'll find a custom designed space with enormous skylights which fill the space with light. A Scovolini wall system incorporates a Murphy bed and plenty of storage to keep the room organized with clutter tucked out of site. You'll also find a flex room, another wine fridge, and large laundry room with yet another fridge.
The property has been immaculately maintained and is ready for its next lucky owner.
