About This Home

Currently configured as a five-unit elevatored income-producing property, 23 West 69th Street also offers the opportunity to create a grand seven-story single-family residence. DOB-approved plans envision six bedrooms, a garden-level roof deck, a finished spa basement with pool, and a striking rear wall of glass. In its existing layout, three of the five apartments enjoy private outdoor space, complemented by five decorative fireplaces and a commercial-grade elevator. Surrounded by low-rise, landmarked townhouses, the home benefits from exceptional natural light. Built circa 1892 by noted architect Gilbert A. Schellenger, this 20-foot-wide townhouse is ideally situated on a prime Central Park block on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, moments from Sheep Meadow and Tavern on the Green, within the Upper West Side–Central Park West Historic District. The property is also close to Lincoln Center, the Metropolitan Opera, Juilliard, LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts, Fordham University, and Columbus Circle, home to Jazz at Lincoln Center and some of the neighborhood’s finest dining and shopping. As a rental asset, the building offers a strong rent roll and consistently low vacancy. Alternatively, it presents flexibility as a live/work residence or an owner’s home with supplemental income. Comprising a collection of well-proportioned duplex and triplex apartments in a serene, picturesque setting, this is a rare and compelling opportunity.
