The Belnord at 225 West 86th St. #1003

The Belnord: the Upper West Side’s most storied building, re-envisioned by renowned architect Robert A.M. Stern. Originally built in 1908, and occupying a full city block in the heart of the Upper West Side, this landmarked, Italian Renaissance building blends gracious pre-war proportions and history with all the modern conveniences and luxuries of today.

This sprawling home offers five bedrooms and four and a half baths generously distributed over 3,963 square feet. Beauty abounds with north and south exposures, 10 foot ceilings, fully restored, oversized mahogany windows, and 5? white oak floors with chevron and plank patterns throughout.

Upon arrival, a formal entry foyer leads to the stunning great room, soaked in southern light. The enormous eat-in kitchen, custom designed by Molteni in collaboration with Robert A. M. Stern Architects, features Calacatta Gold marble countertops and backsplash, with the unique choice of cerused oak or white lacquer custom cabinetry. State-of-the-art Gaggenau appliances and a 45 bottle Sub Zero wine refrigerator are further complemented by a kitchen banquette with storage.

Privately situated at the end of the bedroom gallery, the expansive master suite features sunny courtyard exposures, two massive walk-in-closets, and a windowed, spa-like master bathroom, richly appointed in Siberian white marble. Radiant heated floors, custom designed vanities by Molteni and Robert A.M. Stern, a deep soaking tub with separate glass-enclosed shower, and accessories by Kohler, Dornbracht, and Kallista complete this rejuvenating sanctuary. Select additional bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms equipped with lavish Grigio Niccola stone, radiant heated floors, and vanities by Molteni.

Situated conveniently off the foyer, a signature powder room is appointed with polished Nero Marquina marble and a Snow White marble carved sink. An expansive laundry room with Whirlpool washer and dryer, High-performance VRF dedicated HVAC system, Intrahome Systems integrated technology infrastructure, and an abundance of closet space throughout complete this extraordinary home.

Welcome to The Belnord, a masterpiece re-imagined.
