About 40 W 77th St Unit 7B

Pristine Prewar Home with Iconic Museum Views! Impeccably renovated to the highest standards, this distinguished and spacious 4-bedroom residence blends timeless prewar charm with sophisticated modern finishes. Set above the treetops, it offers breathtaking, unobstructed views of the landmark façade of the American Museum of Natural History and its beautifully landscaped gardens. From the moment you enter the bright, expansive entrance gallery, the exceptional quality and meticulous craftsmanship are immediately evident. Anchoring the home, the gallery features a large walk-in coat closet and flows into a gracious living room and a front-facing formal dining room/den with a custom wet bar. Each space is framed by double windows, flooding the rooms with natural light and offering front-row seats to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. The beautifully appointed, windowed chefs eat-in kitchen includes a cozy banquette with a round table and a separate walk-in pantry. Outfitted with premium appliances—Sub-Zero, Bosch, and Miele—it’s a culinary dream, complete with an in-unit washer and dryer. The home’s thoughtful layout includes two separate bedroom wings. The elegant primary suite boasts corner windows, custom-built closets, and a luxurious windowed marble bathroom featuring a soaking tub and a separate glass-enclosed shower. Two additional bedrooms, located in their own wing, share a charming windowed bath, while a fourth bedroom—adjacent to the den and facing treetops and the Museum—enjoys its own private bathroom. This home is a rare blend of classic elegance and contemporary luxury, offering beautiful hardwood floors, central air conditioning, abundant custom storage, and an outstanding layout for both entertaining and everyday living. Located in the heart of the Upper West Side, 40 West 77th Street is a full-service prewar cooperative built in 1928, featuring a stunning marble lobby, live-in superintendent, dedicated staff, bike room, and storage (subject to availability). The building is pet-friendly, allows pieds-à-terre, and permits up to 75% financing. A 10% flip tax on net profit applies. Ideally situated on one of Manhattan’s most picturesque and sought-after blocks—just half a block from Central Park and the New-York Historical Society—this exceptional home is surrounded by world-class dining, shopping, cultural institutions, and convenient transportation. This is a truly special home that must be seen to be fully appreciated.
