About This Home
As of May 2025A rarely available high-floor, six-room residence located at 15 West 81st Street with quintessential open Upper West Side views. The scale and space are not to be missed.
Upon entering this home, you are greeted by a gracious gallery that stretches 24 feet from the living room to the formal dining room. The living room measures 27 feet and boasts three large windows with beautiful historic views and northern light. The living room is spacious enough for multiple seating areas, grand furniture, and endless design opportunities.
At the opposite end of the gallery, you'll find the perfectly scaled formal dining room with an oversized picture window offering sunny eastern exposures into the courtyard. The dining room is spacious enough to accommodate a family room, media room, and formal dining.
The eat-in kitchen perfectly combines restored historic charm with modern finishes and conveniences. The original stainless steel St. Charles cabinetry and floor-to-ceiling subway tile backsplash have been lovingly and professionally restored. These beautiful touches are blended with the conveniences of modern living including stunning quartzite counters, a gorgeous black mosaic floor, the best high-end appliances including a SubZero fridge, a Viking range and hood, and a Miele dishwasher.
The staff room has been left intact, providing the perfect space for a home office, third bedroom, guest room, or its original purpose as a staff room. There is a full en suite bath connected to the staff room, and the washer/dryer is conveniently placed in this room.
A separate bedroom wing features a massive corner primary suite, completely separated from the other bedroom, with an expansive dressing room and quiet, sunny northern and eastern exposures. The windowed, renovated primary bath is in perfect original condition with restored Emery Roth tiles, a deep cast iron soaking tub, and a luxurious rain shower. The second bedroom faces south and includes large closets with an en suite bath featuring perfectly restored Emery Roth fixtures and tiling.
The residence also boasts beautifully restored period details, tall beamed ceilings, through-the-wall AC, new windows, restored herringbone floors, and abundant closet and storage space.
15 West 81st Street, the famed Emery Roth landmark building, is a long-established white-glove cooperative with a reputation for stellar service and financial stability. It is located on one of the most sought-after blocks in Manhattan, near Central Park and across the street from the Museum of Natural History, Roosevelt Park, and the Rose Planetarium. The cooperative boasts two 24-hour doormen, an exceptional staff, and modern amenities such as a state-of-the-art fitness center, playroom, and separate storage rooms for owners. 50% financing permitted and a 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser.
