Property Description
Why buy a townhouse when you can have this elegant, full-floor, sun-flooded, renovated duplex with 14' ceilings and incredible original details in a 1902 Georgian revival Beaux-arts mansion, steps from the Strawberry Fields entrance to Central Park?
This large convertible four bedroom apartment comes complete with three full baths. Originally owned by the Clark family (whose architect also built the Dakota, Waldorf-Astoria and Plaza hotels), it is part of a block-long row of houses so historically significant that it is landmarked twice (part of 2 separate districts)! The official LPC registry calls it "one of the finest Neo-Georgian rows in the city, with great dignity and elegance- a remarkable cohesiveness created by the careful arrangement of the individual houses- The projecting balconies, portico pediments, and window trim here creates a sparkling contrast of light and shadow, giving great dignity and elegant uniformity to the row."
28 West 74th street sits in the center of this extraordinary row of mansions. Its facade is of brick, limestone and ironwork with cornices, parapets and details galore. Apartment 2BC brims with interior architectural details as well- its striking formal parlor commands attention with its intricate moldings, ornate marble wood-burning fireplace, and limestone Juliet balcony that looks over tranquil, treelined 74th street.
Steps take you up to a large bedroom (or office) with separate full bath. Just past the parlor is a large eat-in chef's kitchen with sub zero full refrigerator, modern appliances and separate pantry area with added storage and full-size washer-dryer. The gallery-style hall off pantry leads to a separate dining/bar area adjacent to a large bedroom with ensuite bath. Go up 6 shallow steps to reach the stunning rear parlor. This imposing and impressive, pin-drop quiet, oak-paneled room evokes the grandeur of a gilded age past with its 14' ceilings and 2nd working wood-burning fireplace. A beautiful mahogany staircase takes you to 2 additional rooms, one a large bedroom with ensuite bath, the other a spacious open room overlooking the den that could be used as an office, den, or additional bedroom. There are large closets throughout the apartment.
28 west 74th street is a well-run boutique coop that allows pets and pied a terres. It has an elevator, a laundry room (in addition to the in-unit washer dryer) and basement storage for residents.
