Description

Apartment 5C at Two Fifty West 81 St is a graceful 3-bedroom apartment facing almost entirely onto the beautifully tree-lined 81st street. With a wonderful sense of arrival, the entrance gallery flows into a very large living room. A separate and spacious kitchen is thoughtfully organized and beautifully detailed with handmade cabinets built by Smallbone of Devizes, one of the top kitchen manufacturers in the world.

The custom millwork cabinetry surrounds a suite of Gaggenau appliances. The master bedroom feels grand, with two walk-in closets and a five fixture, white marble bath with radiant heated floors and waterworks fixtures. Both secondary bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and are placed perfectly to serve as full-time bedrooms, a library or part of a master suite.

Oak flooring, perfectly scaled large windows, high ceilings and custom molding complete the picture for this very special apartment.


Designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects and developed by Alchemy Properties, Two Fifty West 81st is inspired by the heritage of the grand pre-war apartment buildings on the Upper West Side. The elegant and classical silhouette is punctuated by setbacks and decorative window openings and is finished in limestone and warm, handmade, grey brick and articulated frieze details. The signature oval lobby will be attended, and the building will be fully staffed.

In a boutique collection of 28 apartments, residents will have the benefits of personal attention combined with the amenities of a much larger building.


The amenity collection engages the senses, body, and mind. A multi-purpose Sports Court is ideal for daily fun or informal entertaining. An imagination forest thrives in the colorful Childrens Playroom.

The Fitness Center is outfitted with Technogym and Peloton equipment. The Golf Simulator Room offers a place to tee off. The rooftop Sky Terrace, with its impressive vistas, is the perfect place for open air dining.

The Music Recording and Practice Studio includes a selection of state-of-the-art instruments, a mixing board, and a sound booth. The Library Lounge is a sophisticated retreat appointed with a charming terrace, a curated book selection, and a catering pantry.


The sales and marketing of 250 West 81st Street is a collaboration between Alchemy Properties and Compass Development. The complete offering terms are in an offering plan available from the Sponsor.
