An exceptional two-level apartment, once the home of the renowned French painter Françoise Gilot, is located in the heart of the historic Artists' Colony on West 67th Street, above one of the most picturesque parts of the Upper West Side. This unique duplex offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of New York’s artistic heritage.
The centerpiece of the apartment is a grand living room with a 5.5-meter-high vaulted ceiling, a wood-burning fireplace, and oversized windows that flood the space with natural light. The generously planned layout on this level also includes a kitchen with a dining area, two bedrooms, and a flexible room with exposed brick and a vaulted ceiling that can serve as an office, a third bedroom, or a library. The bedrooms, office, and kitchen offer calming views of lush tree canopies.

The upper floor houses the master bedroom with ample built-in storage, an adjoining office or lounge, which can be separated to create an additional private bedroom. This level also includes a bathroom, another room, and numerous storage spaces. The apartment additionally includes a separate office/studio on the building’s attic floor—ideal for creative work—and a large storage room with a window.
The interior excels in thoughtful details, from original built-ins to a gallery overlooking the living room. Elegant architectural lines echo the structured boldness of Françoise Gilot’s own cubist works. The historic, landmarked residential building with only 32 units offers 24-hour reception, an on-site building manager, and a beautifully landscaped rooftop terrace with stunning views of Central Park and the city skyline.
One of Manhattan’s most iconic and charming areas, known as the Artist’s Colony, is lined with trees and majestic pre-war buildings. Central Park is just a few dozen meters away, perfect for morning runs or peaceful strolls. Nearby are renowned restaurants and well-known shops.
