262 W 95th St #3 New York, NY 10025

Hidden behind a gate on West 95th Street is one of the Upper West Side's most unexpected treasures: Pomander Walk. And tucked within this landmarked enclave is a charming one-bedroom that offers a completely different way to live in Manhattan. The apartment has its own entrance from West 95th Street, giving it an unusual sense of privacy and independence. Upstairs, windows on three exposures bring in beautiful natural light and offer views into the gardens and picturesque surroundings of Pomander Walk. Hardwood floors run throughout, and the well-proportioned layout includes a comfortable living room, separate bedroom, updated bathroom, generous storage, and a kitchen with the flexibility to accommodate a dishwasher or washer/dryer. But what truly sets this home apart is what surrounds it. Pomander Walk feels almost impossibly removed from Manhattan. A narrow pedestrian lane winds between a collection of whimsical Tudor-style homes, framed by mature plantings, flowering gardens, climbing vines and charming architectural details. Built in the 1920s and later designated a New York City landmark, it remains one of the city's most distinctive residential enclaves-a place with a genuine sense of community and history that is increasingly difficult to find. Step outside the gates and the Upper West Side is at your doorstep. Riverside Park and the Hudson River are just a few blocks west, while Central Park is an easy walk to the east. The neighborhood offers an exceptional mix of longtime local favorites, restaurants, cafés, specialty food shops and everyday conveniences, with Broadway, Amsterdam and Columbus all nearby. Excellent subway access makes getting downtown easy, while the Museum of Natural History, Lincoln Center and Columbia University are all part of the broader neighborhood landscape. There are plenty of beautiful apartments in New York, but very few offer an experience quite like this. Pomander Walk is a hidden piece of the city-historic, intimate and wonderfully unexpected-and this home is a rare opportunity to be part of it.
