Exceptional Value: True 3-Bedroom on the Upper West Side — Under $1.35M

Welcome to Residence 1E at The Powellton, where timeless prewar charm meets unbeatable value. This spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath co-op offers approximately 1,400+/- square feet of intelligently designed living space — all for under $1,000 per square foot. A rare opportunity to own for less than renting in one of Manhattan’s most sought-after neighborhoods.

What Makes This Home Stand Out:

10-Foot Ceilings

Fully Renovated Chef’s Kitchen – Outfitted with premium appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, GE five-burner range, Bosch dishwasher, and an abundance of ceiling-height cabinetry. The corner pantry and granite countertops make it as functional as it is beautiful.

Washer/Dryer In-Unit – A true luxury in NYC living.

Thoughtful Layout – The kitchen, dining and living area flow into each other. All three bedrooms are tucked away in a separate wing, offering peace and privacy. The ensuite primary bath is windowed and tastefully updated, as is the second bath.

Ultimate Convenience – Located on the lobby level, this home is ideal for those with strollers, pets, or a busy lifestyle. Skip the elevator and come and go with ease.

The Powellton is a well-maintained, pet-friendly co-op with 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, bike & private storage, common laundry room and subletting allowed after 1 year (with board approval).

Nestled between Central Park and Riverside Park, and just one block to the 1/2/3 subway lines, Whole Foods, and the vibrant Upper West Side cultural and dining scene — this location checks every box.
