About This Property

Prewar Two Bedroom Duplex Condo in Prime Upper West Side with Private Terrace

A stunning foyer and a floating staircase greet you in this one-of-a-kind duplex home. Beyond, you'll find a huge living room with soaring ceilings, incredible light and views from two exposures and a sandstone fireplace. Step outside to your south-facing private terrace and enjoy the sunset. One of two primary bedrooms with ensuite baths is also found on the first floor as well as a spectacular custom-designed chef's kitchen with its over-sized range, griddle and grilling station, large granite center island with an additional sink and abundant storage possibilities.

A tranquil primary suite with a private study/home office occupies the upper level of this home. A wrought-iron balcony overlooks the space below, and the three vast walk-in closets are truly extravagant . The spa-like bath with double sinks, a rain forest shower and a hot tub provides the perfect setting for the beginning and ending of your day.

Additional features of this home include a washer/dryer, custom lighting, and imported stonework and tilework throughout.

The Pythian is a full-service building and architectural gem designed by Thomas Lamb in 1927 as a temple for the Knights of Pythias, a fraternal organization founded in 1864, and converted to a condominium in 1983. The buff brick facade of the building is decorated with brightly colored glazed terracotta in a striking ancient Egyptian style. Pets permitted, playroom, fitness center, additional storage and additional laundry facilities in the basement. Special monthly assessment of $358.93.
