44 West 106th St. 5

Built for the developer’s family, this Soho-like 3-4 BR triplex is one-of-a-kind on the Upper West Side with high ceilings, amazing light, a huge private roof terrace and a real cook’s kitchen. Featuring a 55’ long main living space, it is a perfect for entertaining or simply relaxed, but luxurious, family living.

The apartment encompasses the top three floors of a nine year old totally fire-proof seven story concrete and steel condominium building, carefully designed to fit contextually into this landmarked block. With an individual elevator entrance, security is exceptional. The rooftop 4th bedroom/den, which overlooks the giant roof terrace, could also be a marvelous work-at-home space.

As for location, the building is only half block from the entrance to Central Park, on the nicest corner in booming Manhattan Valley, which, during the past ten years, has become the home to some of the UWS’ most upscale developments and finest stores. In addition to its closeness to the park, it is only a few minute walk to excellent shopping (especially food), fine restaurants, and ample public transportation. Cabs are readily available at all hours. Moreover, several highly-rated schools are within close proximity and most of the others provide door-to-door pick up.
