Description

Timeless classic living in the legendary Pythian Condominium. Welcome to this turnkey, fully renovated showstopping residence where historic grandeur meets modern luxury. This exceptional one-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath duplex loft is the perfect blend of architectural drama, sophisticated design, and effortless comfort. The elegant foyer leads into the breathtaking scale of a dramatic living room with 16-foot ceilings. Soaring oversized windows flood the space with natural light throughout the day. While the proportions are striking, the home is still perfect for cozy relaxation and warm entertaining. The loft has been completely renovated with impeccable attention to detail throughout. The stunning brand-new eat-in kitchen features custom cabinetry, premium appliances, sleek quartz countertops, and ample dining and cooking space. Upstairs, the king-size bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with generous proportions offering an airy, loft-like feel overlooking the dramatic living area below. Both bathrooms have been beautifully redesigned with refined finishes, creating a serene and luxurious atmosphere. Custom lighting as well as exceptional closet and storage space is found throughout this special home. Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully curated to maximize style, comfort, and functionality. Located within the iconic Pythian Condominium - one of the Upper West Side’s most architecturally celebrated full-service buildings - residents enjoy white-glove amenities, including a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, fitness center, children’s playroom, business center, laundry facilities as well as storage and bike storage. Originally built in 1927 as a Masonic Temple, the Pythian had a storied history until its award-winning conversion into condominiums in 1983. Still famed for its magnificent and unique façade with Egyptian and Assyrian iconography, the Pythian is a true New York landmark offering unparalleled character and prestige. Perfectly situated moments from Riverside Park, Central Park, premier dining, shopping, and convenient transportation, this extraordinary duplex presents a rare opportunity to own a turnkey home in one of the Upper West Side’s most coveted condominiums. There is a capital assessment of $100.66/month.
