As of June 2025Stunning protected views of the iconic Museum of Natural History and beautiful planted gardens greet you upon entering this gracious home on one of the most beautiful and tranquil tree line blocks on the Upper West Side. Originally a classic six, the apartment has been reconfigured to create three full bedrooms.
A grand entrance gallery leads to the spacious living room with direct views of the Museum. Also located off the foyer, there is a formal dining area, creating a wonderful flow for entertaining.
All of the bedrooms are located of a private hallway. The primary bedroom with en-suite bath and the 2nd bedroom face north and have Museum and side park views. The 3rd bedroom, originally part of the oversized dining room, receives bright eastern light. There is a hall bath conveniently located to both the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms.
The windowed eat in kitchen with eastern exposure was expanded into the staff room creating a large area for casual dining, an office area and a pantry with an abundance of storage. There is currently a washer and dryer in the original staff bathroom which can be relocated to create an additional full bath. The apartment features prewar details, high ceilings, beautiful parquet floors and generous storage space throughout.
