A Classic Upper West Side One-Bedroom — Steps from Central Park

Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined stretch of 88th Street between Central Park West and Columbus Avenue, this thoughtfully appointed one-bedroom boasts 10ft+ ceilings and sits in one of Manhattan's most coveted and walkable neighborhoods. The building is a handsome five-story pre-war brownstone — full of the architectural charm and craftsmanship that define classic New York City living — with a secure coded entry system.

Sandwiched between two beautiful parks, the Upper West Side is one of the greenest spots in Manhattan. For that reason, it is a perennial favorite. The Upper West Side is relaxed, but never dull. There are plenty of low-key bars and restaurants to frequent along Amsterdam Avenue, and Broadway is an always-bustling commercial center. The wide, tree-lined streets still boast many mom-and-pop stores. Less posh than the Upper East Side, it is more easily accessible by public transportation, and real estate prices are just as, if not more, expensive.
