202 West 78th St. #1W

This truly grand townhouse residence was meticulously renovated to tastefully blend the beauty of pre-war 1920s architecture with the new. Restored to the most exacting standards, this home maintains its incredible warmth, while its scale and modern detail take it to a another level.

Contemporary design elements such as sophisticated molding gives an “other era” feel to this already gorgeous property. Upon entering the parlor level, one is immediately struck by ceiling heights that are in excess of 11 feet, its rich oak plank beams that are set off by 8? wide plank oak flooring with 1/4" cork sound prevention below, the decorative fireplace, and the beautiful brick work and molding details. Upgraded, sound proofed windows flank all rooms, allowing beautiful northern and southern light to fill the space. The home offers an expansive custom chef’s kitchen, with a center island and professional appliances. This space is perfect for casual entertaining and has ample space for both a formal living room and a dining area.
The bedroom wing offers three thoughtfully designed, well-proportioned bedrooms. The south western facing master bedroom ensuite offers size, finish and scale that is complimented by pin drop quiet and privacy. The master bathroom has spa level finishes, as well as an oversized windowed shower. In addition, the two full bathrooms provide radiant heated flooring.

Great closet space is available throughout the home, and additional storage space is available. The home contains a washer/dryer, is well-equipped with a new central air conditioning system, and is pre-wired for home automation to include a sound system.

Located on bucolic West 78st Street with a secure video intercom access system, this special home is a haven for tranquility and is a short block from all that the heart of the Upper West Side has to offer.
