OPEN HOUSES BY APPOINTMENT ONLY -- NO DOGS
The soaring 16-foot ceilings in the living and dining area of this stunning duplex allow the northern light to shine in all day.
The lower level also has a galley kitchen, large bedroom, and full bathroom with a tub/shower combo.
Up the sleek staircase on the top floor is a HUGE storage closet, another full bathroom with a stall shower, and two more spaces, one perfect as a bedroom that opens to the floor below and the other a great home office.
The Pythian is a gut-renovated condo and one of New York City's most dramatic buildings. Not only does it have a doorman, but a gym, laundry, bike, and play/community rooms. It's located in the sweet spot of the Upper West Side, just a block or two from Central Park, the best shopping, and convenient transportation.
