About This Property
Welcome to this beautifully renovated, pre-war gem in the heart of the Upper West Side.Bathed in natural light throughout the day and offering open north and west views from every room, this exceptional home underwent a meticulous, top-to-bottom renovation in 2024. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, blending pre-war charm with modern luxury and convenience.The stunning windowed eat-in kitchen is a dream for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring abundant Dekton countertop space, custom cabinetry, and a suite of premium appliances, including a Viking range and microwave, Bosch dishwasher, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, and a Miele washer/dryer discreetly concealed behind custom millwork. A massive walk-in pantry/storage closet at the back of the kitchen provides exceptional utility rarely found in Manhattan apartments.Designed with both functionality and flow in mind, the kitchen can be separated from the living area by elegant glass French doors or opened fully to seamlessly connect the two spaces. The generously proportioned living room easily accommodates both living and dining areas and is anchored by a striking custom oak built-in that offers storage while providing the perfect backdrop for books, art, and other accent pieces.Additional highlights include wide-plank white oak floors, fully customized closets throughout, massive windows, and the rare luxury of grandfathered through-the-wall air conditioning in every room-including the kitchen. As the building no longer permits new through-the-wall installations, this is a highly desirable feature that sets this home apart.514 West End Avenue is a full-service pre-war cooperative ideally situated at the corner of West End Avenue and 85th Street. Enjoy the tranquility of a quiet residential block with minimal traffic, while remaining moments from multiple subway and bus lines, Riverside Park, and the Upper West Side's wonderful restaurants, cafés, boutiques, cultural institutions, and schools. The building offers flexible ownership options, including guarantors, gifting, co-purchasing, parents buying for children, and pieds-à-terre with board approval. Pets are also welcome!
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Digs Realty Group LLC.
Glass French doors let the eat-in kitchen stand apart from the living room or open fully so the two spaces run together. The living room is large enough for both a living and a dining area, and a custom oak built-in gives it storage and a natural backdrop for books and art.
The kitchen has Dekton countertops, custom cabinetry, and a Viking range and microwave, with a Bosch dishwasher and a Fisher & Paykel refrigerator. A walk-in pantry at the back of the kitchen adds storage that's uncommon in Manhattan apartments, and I'd count it among the features that make the kitchen work for both everyday cooking and guests.
The Miele washer and dryer sit behind custom millwork, so laundry stays inside the apartment. In-unit laundry is a daily convenience that's easy to underrate until you've lived without it.
Open north and west views reach every room, and the windows are massive. Through-the-wall air conditioning is grandfathered in every room, including the kitchen. The building no longer permits new through-the-wall installations, so that's a feature you won't find replicated here.
514 West End Avenue is a 1923 elevator cooperative with 16 stories and 46 units, in the Riverside-West End Historic District Extension I. Riverside Park is about 4 minutes away on foot, the 86 St station on the 1 is about 3 minutes, and Zabar's is about 6 minutes. Pets are allowed.
The listing mentions guarantors, gifting, co-purchasing and pied-a-terre purchases, all with board approval. It's worth asking your attorney early how those options would apply to this building.
