331 West 70th Street offers a rare combination of elegance, location and value. Part of a handsome row of similar period townhouses, this light-filled home boasts over 3,400 square feet +/- of living space in addition to a full basement and a lush rear garden. Currently configured as a garden level floor-through (delivered vacant) with a spacious owner's triplex above, the layout is ideal for those seeking gracious living space with the benefit of additional income. Accessed off the home's entrance gallery, the garden level floor-though apartment is ideal as a short- or long-term rental property, or easily combined with the triplex above for a single-family conversion. The layout of this floor offers flexibility as a one or two bedroom with two full bathrooms and access to the beautiful garden. One flight up from the entrance gallery awaits the owner's triplex. The parlor level (the first floor of the owner's triplex) is comprised of loft-like living and entertaining spaces offering sublime light and southern views, soaring ceilings, two decorative fireplaces and access via an exterior stairway to the bucolic garden below. One flight up is the master bedroom with an en suite bathroom and a charming terrace overlooking treetops and the garden below. Down the hall, a sun-flooded library or fourth bedroom faces south. The top floor consists of two more family bedrooms and a large skylit bathroom. The property offers limitless potential including conversion into a single-family home, maintaining as an owner's triplex with rental income or as an investment property. Approximately 2,000 square feet of air rights are potentially available which, if utilized, would yield a massive home of close to 5,500 square feet. Ideally positioned a half block from Riverside Park and within easy reach of Lincoln Center and all of the world class dining and entertainment options for which that neighborhood is justifiably renowned. DELIVERED VACANT.
