Owning a home on the Upper West Side sounds like a dream, especially when it comes to brownstones. Now imagine owning an entire brownstone located just off Broadway, with seven total apartments inside of it—including a triplex for you to live in. For the right buyer, 251 W. 76th Street can make that dream a reality. The owner’s triplex features lavish (and very pink!) interiors with gorgeous wallpapers that mesh perfectly with the green and luscious backyard. Here’s everything you need to know about this rare buying opportunity.
Quite the investment property, this house is currently listed at $8.5 million. The 30% minimum down payment will run you $2,550,000, and then you’ll be on the hook for $40,207 in monthly payments. This includes the mortgage payment of $35,026 and monthly taxes of $5,181.
The 3,000-square-foot owner’s triplex covers the lower, ground, and parlor levels of this luxurious brownstone. The interiors were designed by Keith Baltimore, a leading East Coast designer, and you can see his attention to detail throughout the house. On the ground level, you’ll enter through the foyer featuring a powder room and coat closet, straight into the beautiful dining room that can easily entertain a dozen people. The decorative marble fireplace makes a grand statement, as do the large chandeliers and custom stained glass windows.
Past the dining room, the kitchen stuns with a pink quartz island and gray floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. Chefs will love the Lacanche range which features three ovens (yes, three!), seven gas burners, and a custom hood. The refrigerator and dishwasher both have cabinet panels, so they blend in seamlessly with the rest of the kitchen.
The living room, open to the kitchen, is also pretty in pink, with custom moldings and a pink quartz decorative fireplace adding vintage flair. A built-in marble bar with an ice maker will also dazzle guests! This floor has a small media room as well, which could make a great den or office.
Down one level, you’ll find the two bedrooms, both of which receive great light. The primary suite features a built-in bed and Juliet balcony, in addition to a dressing room and en-suite bath. On the lowest level, the recreation room with bar and kitchenette provides a perfect place to have fun or entertain. This level also features wine storage and laundry.
Outside, your private oasis awaits. A ground-level patio and parlor-level deck provide plenty of space for sitting and gathering. The outdoor area also includes privacy fencing for a remote feel, surround-sound speakers, and even a marble lotus fountain.
The top three floors include six apartments which are a mix of 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom units which the owner can rent out.
In addition to the steep price and those monthly taxes, the responsibility of renting out six other apartments isn’t for everyone. The interiors also may not be your cup of tea, but you likely won’t come across anything else like it!
