100 W 78th St Unit 1B, New York City, NY, 10024

SHOW STOPPER: Take advantage of a rare opportunity to live in a 3-level prewar home on one of the most coveted tree-lined Upper West Side blocks. This unique 2 bedroom - 1 ½ bath (can be made into 2 full with laundry), 1,400 square foot triplex apartment boasts 14’ ceilings, has its own gated maisonette entrance, and outdoor space. Coming into the home, the entry hallway dramatically overlooks the exceptionally large living space on the lower level, which has a double-height ceiling and oversized windows. There is a windowed galley kitchen on the main level and an adjacent dining room with a custom-crafted solid wood floor-to-ceiling wall unit; the unit features adjustable open shelving to display art, décor, and books and incorporates a dining buffet area with storage. The two generously sized bedrooms with good closet space and a full-size bathroom are located on the second floor. A bonus is the storage area above the landing just outside these 3 rooms. The great room, on the lower level, is perfect as a living room/den with home office and has a powder room, which could be easily expanded to a full bathroom. There is a working fireplace and cleverly custom built-in storage space with drawers and shelving under the staircase. The apartment has 2 private outdoor spaces: one at the entryway and the other to the west of the maisonette gate. Both spaces can be garden areas and used to enjoy your morning cup of coffee and evening glass of wine. Building amenities include laundry facilities and a bike shed. Washer/dryer installation in the unit is permitted. Pets are welcome. 100 West 78th Street is in prime Upper West Side territory with an array of cultural, dining, shopping, educational, and recreational options just steps away. The building is across the street from the American Museum of Natural History and an expansive year-round Sunday Farmers’ Market and is in close proximity to Central Park, the Beacon Theater, the New York Historical Society, the Children’s Museum of Manhattan, Zabar’s, Citarella’s, Fairway, Trader Joe’s and Equinox among many other destinations.
