A rare opportunity to restore and reimagine a historic Upper West Side townhouse on one of the neighborhood’s most beautiful tree-lined blocks. This elegant residence is rich with original architectural details, timeless charm, and offers extraordinary potential. Originally constructed in the late 19th century as part of a distinguished row of Renaissance Revival brownstones, the home retains many of its original features, including intricate moldings, decorative paneling, six fireplaces, and soaring ceiling heights throughout. An elegant stoop entry leads into graciously scaled rooms filled with warmth, character, and historic authenticity. The house offers an exceptional foundation for customization, presenting a rare chance to create a truly remarkable residence while honoring the integrity of its historic design. A large south-facing garden provides beautiful natural light and a peaceful outdoor retreat rarely found in Manhattan townhouse living. Perfectly positioned moments from Riverside Park, Central Park, Lincoln Center, and the best of the Upper West Side’s celebrated restaurants, schools, and cultural institutions, 266 West 71st Street represents a rare opportunity to restore and personalize a significant piece of New York architectural history — an elegant townhouse rich with original craftsmanship, scale, and character. 266 West 71st Street is currently zoned as a Hotel (H3), presenting the rare opportunity to acquire a property with this desirable zoning, or convert the certificate of occupancy to a single family residential home, as the property is located in a residential (R8B) district.
