Why It’s So Popular
Location and layout make this Upper West Side triplex a hit among StreetEasy users this week. The 1,400-square-foot 2-bedroom is full of prewar charm and situated on a tree-lined block directly across from the American Museum of Natural History. It’s no surprise that more than 240 people are keeping their eyes on this rare beauty.
Enter through a private, gated maisonette entrance on West 78th Street and into the lower level where the large living room showcases dramatic 14-foot-high ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, and a cozy little office nook tucked beneath the staircase with a custom desk and shelving. This floor also provides a convenient powder room that can be converted into a full bathroom or laundry room and a small closet. Head upstairs to the loft-like main level and you’ll find a large dining area with a custom-crafted wood floor-to-ceiling wall unit and a windowed galley kitchen.

The two bedrooms occupy the upper level and there’s a storage area above the landing on this floor as a nice bonus. The apartment has two private outdoor spaces: one at the entryway and the other to the west of the maisonette gate, which make for perfect spots to enjoy your morning coffee or tea.
Some of the neighborhood’s best offerings are just minutes away, including Central Park, the Beacon Theater, the New York Historical Society, Zabar’s, and a plethora of shops and restaurants. The 1,B, and C subway lines are all less than a quarter-mile away, as is the crosstown bus.
