Welcome to this inviting one-bedroom residence in a classic Upper West Side townhouse. This top-floor home captures the character of pre-war architecture with high ceilings, a decorative fireplace, oversized wood doors, and expansive south-facing windows that frame leafy treetop views and fill the space with natural light.

The apartment also offers two generous closets, wall-through air conditioning, and a spacious bedroom that comfortably accommodates a queen-sized bed. Being on the top floor means no neighbors living overhead - a quiet and private retreat in the city.
