175 West 95th Street, #2C, New York (Upper West Side), NY, 10025 | $2,800,000

This one bucks the trend. Conventional wisdom says that all apartments in New York are compromises; however, there is little compromise in this one. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open kitchen, a dining area that does not encroach on your living room, and a large (1, 366sf) private terrace make this an uncompromised "forever home. "

Another time-tested truth is that the home you want is 25% above your price range, but that is not the case here. Chances are you have
been looking for a 3-bedroom condo on the Upper West Side for a while and found that most are prohibitively expensive, so expensive that you dared not hope for a terrace. Until now!

The numbers make this apartment a find; the layout makes it a perfect home.

From the entry foyer, the home splits into two zones. To the right are the "private" areas, where all three bedrooms, both bathrooms and a
laundry room are located. The bedrooms each have a sizable window looking out onto your private terrace and come in three sizes: medium, large, and an extra-large primary bedroom. The primary has a very comfortable four-fixture en-suite bath and a wall of closets. The large bedroom is currently used as an office, but it could comfortably hold a king-sized bed if desired. Meanwhile, the medium offers a more intimate setting.

You turn left from the foyer to access the "public" spaces. First, there is a well-proportioned European-designed, open kitchen with enough
space for multiple cooks to fight over the top-of-the-line appliances. Two pantries with plenty of storage space and a bar area that can easily seat four make the space even more practical. The kitchen also abuts the windowed dining area, which makes it a valuable and pleasant space for dinner parties.

While the living room is comfortably sized, you have a lot more space than in most new developments because the dining area does not
infringe. The glass wall separating it from the terrace makes the space feel even more comfortable.

And so we finally get to the "piece de resistance. " Terraces come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, but they are hardly ever shaped and sized perfectly (32'x51' rectangle). Making it even more exceptional is the fencing, which not only provides incredible privacy to the terrace and the
entire apartment but also provides a sound buffer.

The building has a large fitness center, a children's playroom, an exceptional lounge (with an urban "glass house" feel), and a common roof deck, all conveniently located on the same floor as your new home.

But if you need to get out, 175 West 95th Street is ideally located near two strategically important subway stations, with the 1-2-3 line about 300 yards away. On the rare occasion that you desire more outdoor space, you are nearly an equal 5 minutes from Central Park and Riverside Park.
