Ang 135 West 77th Street ay isang halos himalang townhouse. Sa likod ng Renaissance Revival na harapan, bawat detalye ay maingat, matibay, at elegante, iniiwasan ang mga uso upang matuklasan ang mga hindi maipaliwanag na katangian na ginagawang walang hanggan ang isang tahanan. Sa mahigit 7,000 square feet at sumasaklaw ng limang palapag na may iba't ibang panlabas na espasyo at isang ganap na natapos na basement, bawat aspeto ay sinadyang at isinagawa sa pinakamataas na pamantayan. Mula sa relaks hanggang pormal, at marangal hanggang malapit, ang 135 West 77th Street ay sumasalamin sa kabuuan ng kung ano ang maaaring, at dapat, matagpuan sa isang tahanan.

Pumasok sa pamamagitan ng stoop sa pormal na pasukan patungo sa parlor kung saan ang mga kisame ay halos 12' ang taas na lumilikha ng kaluwagan at dami. Mapapansin mo ang mga detalye tulad ng orihinal na dekorasyon sa kisame ng foyer, isang paalala ng kanyang pinagmulan noong ika-19 siglo; ang tumpak na crown moulding sa bawat dingding; at ang patterned na wood paneling na lumilikha ng estruktura at kaayusan. Sa harap ng bahay ay ang pormal na dining room, nakaharap sa mga puno sa 77th Street na may mga oversized na bintana at iniilawan ng mga dingding na ginagamitan ng pitted marmarinon plaster na may idinagdag na iridescent bronze glaze. Sa likod ng bahay ay ang living room, isang marangal at tumatanggap na espasyo na ang mga dingding ay natapos sa waxed Venetian plaster. Dito, matatagpuan mo ang una sa apat na gumaganang fireplace; lahat ng mantels ay pasadyang marble mantels mula sa Jamb. Isang pribadong teraso, isang marangyang wood-paneled wet bar, at isang bintanang powder room (na maingat na nakatago sa likod ng wood paneling) ang ginagawang perpekto ito para sa pag-aliw.

Ang antas ng hardin ay ang natural na puso ng tahanan, kasama ang malaking eat-in kitchen, pangalawang dining room na may skylight, at maayos na landscaped na hardin. Ang mga bintanang açment mula ding-to-ding at sahig-to-sahig ay lumilikha ng isang ilusyon ng panloob-panlabas at nagpapaliwanag sa espasyo. Ang kusina ay isang showstopper na may mahahabang glassos na countertops, isang napakalaking quartzite island na may bar seating para sa apat, walang katapusang wood cabinetry para sa imbakan, at isang premium appliance package mula sa Sub-Zero, Miele at Thermador.

Ang hardin ay maayos na nilagyan. Kasama nito ang isang grill na may prep space at imbakan; isang nakatalaga na lugar para kumain; iba't ibang puno, bulaklak, at mga paso; at mga stone pavers. Ito ay functional, tahimik, at pribado.

Ang ikatlong palapag ng bahay ay may 10.5' na kisame at nakatuon sa pangunahing suite ng silid. Ang maluwang na silid ay may kasamang windowed dressing room, isang marble fireplace, at isang en-suite na banyo. Ang mga dingding ay natapos sa waxed Venetian plaster. Kasama sa banyo ang marble slab sa mga sahig, dingding at countertops; isang soaking tub at hardware mula sa Waterworks; isang double vanity; mga heated floors; isang rain shower; at maraming built-out na espasyo para sa closet. Sa kabila ng pasilyo ay ang library, na maaaring gamitin bilang isang nakahiwalay na espasyo o natural na extension ng suite. Malalaking bay windows, isa pang marble fireplace, grasscloth wallpaper, at built-in bookshelves ang ginagawang maliwanag at tahimik ang silid na ito. May isang malaking walk-in closet para sa labis na gamit mula sa silid.

Ang ikaapat na palapag ay naglalaman ng dalawa sa mga pangalawang silid, dalawang buong banyong, at isang flexible na espasyo na kasalukuyang ginagamit bilang playroom ng mga bata. Bawat isa sa mga silid ay medyo oversized at may maraming espasyo para sa closet; ang silid na nakaharap sa hilaga ay may pribadong teraso na tumitingin sa hardin. Ang bawat banyo ay nilagyan ng malalaking stone vanities, maraming imbakan, at premium na hardware. Ang playroom ay isang perpektong panshared na espasyo para sa mga proyekto sa sining, takdang-aralin, o opisina.

Sa 11-foot na kisame, ang ikalimang palapag ay may karagdagang silid, nakadikit na buong banyo, isang flexible na espasyo na kasalukuyang ginagamit bilang media room at gym, at isang midnight kitchen. Ang king-sized na silid ay may tatlong built-out na closet; may tatlo pang extra-large na closet sa pasilyo. Ang banyo ay nilagyan ng premium stone at hardware, at may malaking vanity na may maraming imbakan. Matatagpuan mo ang pang-apat at panghuling fireplace sa media room, bukod sa malalaking bintanang nakaharap sa timog, built-in bookshelves, at isang reading nook. Ang silid na ito ay may skylit.

135 West 77th Street is a nearly miraculous townhouse. Behind this Renaissance Revival facade, each detail is thoughtful, sturdy, and elegant, eschewing trends to discover the ineffable qualities that make a home timeless. At over 7,000 square feet and spanning five floors with multiple outdoor spaces and a fully finished basement, each aspect is intentional and executed to the highest standard. From relaxed to formal, and grand to intimate, 135 West 77th Street encompasses the totality of what can, and should be, found in a home.

Enter up the stoop through the formal entryway to the parlor where ceilings nearly 12' high create airiness and volume. You'll notice details like the original decoration on the foyer ceiling, a reminder of its 19th century provenance; the precise crown moulding on each of the walls; and the patterned wood paneling creating structure and order. At the front of the house there is the formal dining room, looking toward the trees on 77th Street with oversized windows and illuminated by walls treated with pitted marmarinon plaster with an applied iridescent bronze glaze. At the rear of the house is the living room, a grand, welcoming space whose walls are finished in waxed Venetian plaster. Here, you'll find the first of four working fireplaces; all the mantels are custom marble mantels from Jamb. A private terrace, a stately wood paneled wet bar, and a windowed powder room (discreetly hidden behind the wood paneling) make this ideal for entertaining.

The garden level is the natural heart of the home, with its massive eat-in kitchen, secondary dining room with a skylight, and immaculately landscaped garden. Wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling casement windows create an indoor/outdoor illusion and brighten the space. The kitchen is a showstopper with long glassos countertops, an enormous quartzite island with bar seating for four, endless wood cabinetry for storage, and a premium appliance package from Sub-Zero, Miele and Thermador.

The garden is perfectly appointed. It includes a grill with prep space and storage; a dedicated dining area; a variety of trees, flowers, and planters; and stone pavers. It is functional, peaceful, and private.

The third floor of the house has 10.5' ceilings and is dedicated to the principal bedroom suite. The spacious bedroom includes a windowed dressing room, a marble fireplace, and an en-suite bathroom. The walls are finished with waxed Venetian plaster. The bathroom includes marble slab along the floors, walls and counters; a soaking tub and hardware from Waterworks; a double vanity; heated floors; a rain shower; and plenty of built-out closet space. Across the hall is the library, which can function as either a standalone space or a natural extension of the suite. Large bay windows, another marble fireplace, grasscloth wallpaper, and built-in bookshelves make this a bright and serene room. There is a large walk-in closet for overflow from the bedroom.

The fourth floor contains two of the secondary bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a flexible space currently used as a kids' playroom. Each of the bedrooms is quite oversized and includes plenty of closet space; the north-facing bedroom has a private terrace overlooking the garden.

With 11-foot ceilings, the fifth floor has an additional bedroom, an adjacent full bathroom, a flexible space currently used as a media room and gym, and a midnight kitchen. The king-sized bedroom has three built-out closets; there are three additional extra-large closets in the hallway.
