Grand & Elegant Prewar 10-Room Residence on the Upper West Side

Discover the timeless beauty of this expansive 3,100-square-foot, 10-room home, featuring soaring close to 10-foot ceilings, original herringbone and new chevron floors, and oversized windows flooding every room with natural light-including the kitchen and staff quarters. Located in a boutique, full-service cooperative at 161 W 86th Street, this unique residence offers 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and gracious living and entertaining spaces.

Enter through a semi-private landing into a grand Gallery, with major rooms oriented to the South, West, and North. To the left of the Gallery, an oversized Living Room with a decorative fireplace, adorned with stunning ceramic and marble tiles, faces South over wide, tree-lined 86th Street, offering warmth and elegance.

The Primary Bedroom and Second Bedroom are generously sized, featuring south-facing windows, built-in cabinetry, and new Oak Chevron flooring.

They share a large, windowed bathroom with a stall shower, double sink and a soaking tub. A third bedroom or den is situated along the same hallway and is currently configured as a home office.

The Formal Dining Room, currently used as a Library/Media Room, faces West with views of a beautiful landmarked building and enjoys beautiful afternoon light. It can easily be reimagined as a dining room, accommodating large gatherings and entertaining.

To the right of the Entrance Gallery is the Eat-in Kitchen, featuring an area that comfortably fits a table for six, ample storage, and a functional chef's workspace with a north-facing window. Adjacent to the kitchen are two staff rooms: one currently used as a laundry room and the other as a bedroom with an en-suite bath.

Down the hallway, two more bedrooms share a full windowed bathroom. One bedroom features double exposures (North and West), while the other faces West. Both include good closets and built-in storage, making them ideal for flexible living arrangements.

Original prewar details, such as moldings and herringbone floors, seamlessly blend with modern updates, including central air conditioning and additional window/units.

This pet-friendly cooperative offers a private storage bin, bike room, and a stunning planted roof deck. The building features a doorman ( 7 AM to 1 AM), a resident manager, and a boutique atmosphere in the heart of the Upper West Side.

Flip Tax is 15% of the Capital Gains, Paid by Buyer. Up to 65% Financing allowed.

Don't miss the rare opportunity to own a spacious, elegant residence that offers the perfect balance of classic charm and modern living.
