## Property Overview

Just two flights up, on the third floor of a charming brownstone co-op comes this fully renovated one-bedroom home with exposed brick, espresso-stained hardwood floors, and an original fireplace that sets the tone before you even set down your keys. There’s an easy warmth to this home that you feel the moment you enter, some homes try to manufacture character, this one has it built into the walls.

The stunning living room is centered around the beautifully preserved decorative fireplace with 10-foot ceilings, framed by exposed brick and classic tile. Oversized wooden double hung windows with shutters are complemented by the brand new renovations throughout. Two generously sized closets sit off the entry, one cleverly tucked behind a pocket door, giving you more storage than you'd expect. An additional ladder-accessed storage loft above adds both charm and function.

The kitchen opens seamlessly into the space, designed with a clean, timeless palette. Custom ivory cabinetry is paired with oil rubbed bronze hardware, Carrara marble countertops, slate gray tile floors, and a full suite of GE appliances including a gas range, double freezer refrigerator, dishwasher, and built-in microwave. The bedroom is spacious with two generous storage lofts above. A large window frames picturesque views of greenery and neighboring townhouses. The full bath feels just as refined, with Thassos marble walls, Twine statuary marble mosaic floors, and a walnut fluted vanity.

This well-maintained prewar brownstone co-op built in 1900 consists of only 11 units and sits on a tree-lined townhouse block in the heart of the Upper West Side, just moments from Central Park and the American Museum of Natural History. The building offers shared laundry and bike storage, and pets are welcome with board approval. Pied-a-terres, subletting, guarantors, co-purchasers are permitted as well.

The neighborhood delivers on every front, from Zabar's and the Greenmarket to standout dining, coffee spots, and easy everyday shopping along Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues. The B, C, and 1 subway lines are nearby, with the 81st Street-Museum of Natural History station just a short distance away.

Sales data through August 2026.

Sale prices are the consideration recorded with the City in ACRIS, and each sale is dated by the day the City recorded it. A closing date reported to the MLS typically falls one to two weeks earlier.
