Description

Some homes impress with scale. Others with design. This one does both.

At 2,766 square feet, with four bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, a 35-foot-wide great room and private elevator entry, Residence 4E at 182 West 82nd Street offers a rare combination of scale, design and flexibility on the Upper West Side. Redesigned behind a historic facade, this expansive condominium pairs the character and proportions of a classic prewar home with the finishes, systems and open layout of modern construction.

A private elevator opens directly into the residence, where the expansive living and dining space immediately sets this home apart. Stretching approximately 35 feet wide, this loft-like great room overlooks trees and enjoys wonderful northern light. High ceilings (9'2"), crown moldings and light white-oak floors laid in a classic herringbone pattern add warmth and architectural character, while the scale allows for substantial living and dining areas without sacrificing either.

Open to the great room, the kitchen was designed to be both beautiful and highly functional. Viking appliances include an industrial cooktop, two wall ovens, dishwasher, wine cooler, and vented hood, while a Sub-Zero refrigerator is concealed behind custom cabinetry. The prep area features durable quartz, and the striking kitchen island combines white statuary marble with warm walnut detailing. A built-in Gaggenau microwave, pot filler and Insinkerator complete the space.

The unusually large primary suite is positioned on the quiet south side of the residence, with oversized windows overlooking brownstones, brick buildings and townhouse gardens. There is ample room for a sitting area, along with a generous walk-in closet.

The oversized, windowed primary bathroom is equally impressive, with two large windows, a freestanding soaking tub, Toto toilet and large double shower. Double sinks with Dornbracht fixtures are undermounted beneath white statuary marble and a custom patterned grey-and-white marble tile floor.

Three additional bedrooms provide flexibility as bedrooms, guest accommodations or home-office space. The additional bathrooms are elegantly finished with Dornbracht fixtures and Toto toilets. A separate powder room is conveniently positioned for guests. A full-size washer and vented dryer is tucked into its own closet just off the kitchen and there is a mini split central a/c system with 5 zones.

182 West 82nd Street is an intimate, full-service boutique condominium with all the luxuries of a larger building. The elevator opens directly into a private hallway, and building amenities include a 24-hour doorman, fitness center and bike storage. Pets permitted!

The location is quintessential Upper West Side. Positioned between Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues, the apartment is surrounded by some of the neighborhood's best restaurants; Zabar's, Levain Bakery and the Columbus Avenue Greenmarket are all nearby, while Essential by Christophe is a personal favorite for a more elevated dining experience.

Central Park, the American Museum of Natural History and Theodore Roosevelt Park are just a few blocks east, putting green space, culture and some of the best of the Upper West Side within a few blocks.

Transportation is excellent, with the 1 train at both 79th and 86th Streets and the B/C trains at 81st Street.

Residence 4E offers a particularly compelling combination: 2,766 square feet, four bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, a spectacular 35-foot-wide entertaining space, private elevator entry and boutique full-service living in the heart of the Upper West Side. Listing courtesy of Corcoran Group ...
