Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by The Agency Brokerage.
This 2,825-square-foot triplex spreads its four bedrooms and four bathrooms across floors of a house the listing says was built in the 1870s, and that's the trade-off to weigh first. Each level works as its own zone, so the sleeping rooms, the entertaining floor and the kitchen stay separate, but you'll be climbing stairs between them every day.
The parlor floor gets the most daylight. The listing describes oversized south-facing bay windows there, and a south-facing window can take in about 8.5 hours of direct sun on the winter solstice, from 7:41 AM to 4:07 PM, and about 10 hours at the spring and fall equinoxes. Nearby buildings can block some of that. The second and third floors each have two bedrooms with high ceilings and wood floors, and a washer-dryer sits in the third-floor hallway.
The top-floor kitchen is the room to see in person. It has a Wolf gas range, a Miele dishwasher and microwave, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a Thermador wine refrigerator, along with a central island, a double sink and a pantry. The dining area, den and gas fireplace share that floor, so cooking and hosting happen in the same place. Five fireplaces in total give the house a lot of character for winter evenings.
The top floor also has a large planted terrace, which the listing describes for outdoor dining and relaxing, and the home has private outdoor space over 60 square feet.
Central Park is about 9 minutes away on foot, and the Lexington Av/63 St station for the M and Q is about 1 minute from the door. Morton Williams is about 1 minute away for groceries, so the daily errands and the trip into the city both sit close to home.
