35 West 90th Street, #PHB

Soak up the sun from your UWS sanctuary in the sky with this 1-bed/1-bath pre-war penthouse dream. Whether you’re watching the colors change in Central Park from your private wraparound terrace with panoramic views of some of the city’s most stunning architecture and the twinkling lights of Midtown or relaxing inside your spacious home with a cup of coffee and a good book, you can count on PHB to supply plentiful Vitamin D from the East, South, and West. The six oversized casement windows of this corner unit, aided by two sets of glass French doors to the terrace, make an aesthetic statement that is stylish and airy, and frame the apartment with the living artwork of the Upper West Side skyline.

They add a sense of openness and serenity to the already sprawling layout. A welcoming foyer forms the center of the apartment, giving easy access to the living area, the windowed kitchen, the bathroom, and the generous bedroom. The light hues of the hardwood floor and the subtle crown moulding capping the walls both begin here and travel throughout the space, enhancing the atmosphere of sunlit calm.

To the left, the joined living and dining areas enjoy two exposures, a gorgeous original fireplace, French doors to the private terrace, and ample closet space. On the right is the large, peaceful bedroom with its own entrance to the terrace, another deep closet, custom built-in bookshelves, and a ceiling fan. Between them are the kitchen with a casement window overlooking the terrace, ceramic tiled floors, and a dishwasher, and the bathroom with subway tile walls. Built in 1931, 35 West 90th Street is a pre-war art deco co-op only half a block from Central Park and not much further to cultural landmarks like the Natural History Museum.

Surrounded by multiple train lines, cute boutiques and your favorite chain stores, and some of the best dining in the city, there’s no beating this location. Amenities include a full-time doorman and a common laundry room in the building. Pet friendly. (Please note there is an assessment of $117.23 per month through the end of 2022.)
