Listing Notes
Rare prewar parlor floor jewel on best Upper West Side Central Park block. Best 1-bedroom apartment in 26 West 74th , which is a boutique elevator condominium townhouse in the row of stately 1904 Neo-Georgian houses built by the developers of The Dakota. Light and height: three tall north-facing French windows spanning 25 feet on the street and soaring 13-foot ceilings. Original details provide a window to the past, but its all about the cubic feet here. Walk to Lincoln Center, Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Fairway, Citarella, Beacon Theatre and much more. The nearby 72nd Street B, C, 1, 2, 3 trains provide further convenience. Must see. Bring your dog.

Property Read
The property is priced above the nearby median per square foot, so condition, building quality, and exact location need to justify the higher ask.
Price history is still limited; review again as more market activity becomes available.
