27 W 67th St Unit 5Fe New York City, NY 10023

<p><p>For over 40 years, this magnificent duplex at 27 West 67th Street was the cherished home of Peter Yarrow, of the legendary folk trio Peter, Paul & Mary. The turn-of-the-century artist's loft is a vibrant testament to New York's rich cultural heritage and resonates with an enduring spirit of creativity and artistry.</p> <p>Peter Yarrow's time here was marked by more than just music - it was a gathering place for intellectuals, grassroots activists, friends, and family - where creativity and conviction intertwined and, literally, changed the world. Countless magical evenings with 80-100 people filled the living room, as guests sang "Blowin" in the Wind," "If I Had a Hammer," and "Puff the Magic Dragon" together. Filled with song and purpose, these fundraising concerts supported some of the most important causes of our time. </p> <p>Built as an artist's studio in 1903, one enters into the old-world elegance of a cathedral living room with barrel-vaulted ceilings and an astonishing two-story window that frames the Upper West Side skyline. Adjacent to the great room is a dining area with iconic southern exposures flooded with natural light. The kitchen has original fire-brick vaulted ceilings, custom oak cabinetry, and an oversized maple center-island table where family meals and songwriting sessions were the norm. </p> <p>Next to the kitchen is an en-suite bedroom connected to a full bathroom that also serves as a powder room for guests through a separate doorway. Upstairs, the second-floor mezzanine, also accessible by the elevator, overlooks the great room below. The primary bedroom, flanked by north and south floor-through exposures, has beautiful views and receives bright light throughout the day. It includes an en-suite bath and a home office. An additional bedroom and full bath complete this upper level. </p> <p>This loft is part of a building as rich in history as its former occupant. The 27 West 67th Street Studios building is a cornerstone of the West 67th Street Artists" Colony Historic District-an area renowned for nurturing artistic expression. With just 32 cooperative residences, the building is designed to support and inspire creative lives. </p> <p>The apartment includes a separate office/work space on the penthouse level, a common roof terrace with mature plantings and skyline views, as well as a storage unit in the basement. The building has a full-time attended lobby and a live-in superintendent. </p> </p>
