A fully reimagined landmarked townhouse, one block from Central Park — where original brownstone character meets modern luxury and state-of-the-art building technology.
Built in the early 1900s and reimagined over a two-year renovation, 140 West 88th Street keeps its original brownstone facade and proportions intact while adding a rooftop penthouse and a completely new three-story rear yard extension. Every part of the interior has been reconstructed to the highest building standards.
Five floors, a private garden, and a roof terrace with skyline views — this is a rare single-family offering on one of the Upper West Side's most coveted blocks.
Set mid-block on a quiet, tree-lined stretch of West 88th Street among a row of well-proportioned brownstones, 140's facade is being fully restored and backs onto a private, south-facing garden — a rare asset on the Upper West Side.
Twelve-foot ceilings, transitional wood moldings, a new gas-burning fireplace, and an expansive double-height view of the rear yard gardens.
A custom kitchen with warm wood cabinets and Orobico Rosso stone countertops. Wood paneling accents throughout provide a modern yet comforting space for daily family use. A generously sized office/bedroom with full bath provides ultimate flexibility.
A large 15' x 15' rear-facing bedroom, oversized walk-in dressing room, and a full-width five-piece bath flooded with natural light. The primary floor features luxury and privacy that can only be found in modern townhouse living.
With elevator access, an ensuite bathroom, a private terrace, and living spaces with 10-foot interior ceilings, the newly constructed penthouse functions as the perfect family room, fitness studio, or guest suite.
A planted roof terrace with an outdoor kitchen and open sightlines toward Central Park — the rarest kind of space to find on the Upper West Side.
