Art lovers rejoice! Central Park enthusiasts rejoice! While certainly not the most modern of homes, this home isn't easy to forget. Lining almost every inch of the living room walls is a vibrant painting, sourced from almost every era, from Impressionist to contemporary art. There's art in every room, including the hallway in the building. If anything, you can feel the energy of a passionate painter inside the home, and it's no surprise that the host is an accomplished artist himself. And to add on to the grandeur, you're in full view of St. John cathedral as well as its gardens.

About Upper West Side

Stately townhouses and grand apartment buildings characterise this affluent, family-friendly neighbourhood nestled between two parks (Central and Riverside). The mature, refined feel of the residential side streets balances with a buzzy bar and bistro scene along the tree-lined avenues – you’ll never be short of a brunch cafe or Jewish bakery here (and by the way, the cookies at Levain are legendary for good reason).
