Nestled in the heart of the Upper West Side, 56 W. 71st St., Apt. 1/2A, is an exquisite example of pre-war charm seamlessly integrated with modern luxury. This unique residence, which spans two floors, offers an unparalleled living experience accentuated by a private garden—a rare and coveted feature in this iconic neighborhood. As you step into the apartment, you are greeted by high ceilings and an abundance of natural light that floods the expansive living area, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The meticulously maintained hardwood floors and elegant crown moldings speak to the timeless sophistication that defines this home. The open-concept kitchen is a chef’s dream, boasting top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and pristine marble countertops. It seamlessly flows into the dining area, making it perfect for both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. The master bedroom, located on the upper level, offers a serene retreat with ample closet space and a beautifully appointed en-suite bathroom featuring classic subway tile and high-end fixtures. An additional bedroom and full bathroom on the main level provide flexibility for guests or a home office. However, the true pièce de résistance is the private garden.

It’s the perfect setting for morning coffee, al fresco dining, or simply unwinding with a good book. Residents of this boutique building enjoy the benefits of a responsive and attentive superintendent who has been with the building for many years, secure entry, and an enviable location just steps from Central Park, Lincoln Center, and a myriad of dining and shopping options. Apartment 1/2A at 56 W. 71st St. is not just a home; it’s a lifestyle, offering a rare blend of elegance, comfort, and convenience in one of New York City’s most desirable neighborhoods.
