Stunning House on the Upper West Side. Call it fate or serendipity that time and pride of ownership have created one of the most unique and beautiful homes on the Upper West Side. Built in 1885 by the eminent New York architect C.P.H. Gilbert, famed for his Fifth Avenue mansions, the exterior of this Queen Anne townhouse stands proudly on its scenic block, seemingly untouched since the 19th century. Yet one step inside and the world is transformed into an elegantly balanced space of light and perfect proportions, created by the renowned architects Hariri & Hariri.

This five-story home features four bedrooms plus an artist’s studio, three and one-half baths, and abundant natural light from skylights and dramatic double-height floor-to-ceiling windows. An expansive chef’s kitchen, complete with designer cabinetry, top-of-the-line appliances, and a modern dumbwaiter, is situated on the garden level, where both cooks and diners enjoy leafy garden views. The dining room is striking with its double-height ceilings, while the living room is graced with a working fireplace and a glass wall that seamlessly frames the garden beyond.

The third and fourth floors comprise spacious, well-proportioned bedrooms and luxurious limestone baths. The primary bedroom features a working fireplace and skylight. The fifth floor is currently configured as an artist’s studio, complete with skylight, terrace, and views of Central Park.

This collaboration between two important architectural forces creates an extraordinary synthesis of historic exterior and modern interior design — bridging old and new through perfect spatial harmony to create a warm, contemporary, and truly exceptional home.
