Nestled in a charming pre-war elevator co-op, this bright and tranquil high-floor studio offers the best of Upper West Side living. Located right of central park and just steps from the 72nd St 1/2/3 subway, the apartment is surrounded by stunning architecture and vibrant city life while providing a peaceful retreat. The location provides easy commutes to both Columbia and NYU and nearby top-notch restaurants.

Facing West and away from the street, this home is filled with natural light and offers a stunning, up-close view of a historic church’s architecture. Classic pre-war details include a built-in bookcase, a spacious walk-in closet (plus a coat closet), and a dishwasher for modern convenience.

The well-maintained building offers a suite of amenities: laundry, bike storage, a fitness room, and additional storage. It’s pet-friendly, allows pieds-à-terre, and offers subletting after two years (with board approval). The building allows up to 80% financing with no flip tax and there is also a discounted bulk Spectrum rate of $50/month. A capital assessment of $135.54/month is in place through December 2026.

This is a rare opportunity to own a quintessential Upper West Side studio in a sought-after location. All open houses are by APPOINTMENT ONLY.
