590 W END Avenue #5A

Perfect Pied A Terre! This elegant and serene pre-war one bedroom at 590 West End Avenue #5A is in move-in condition. It has been artfully reconfigured, capitalizing on loft-like volume for maximum entertaining space or quiet living with elbow room. The classic, eye-catching, Italianate-style building on West End Avenue at 88th Street, designed by famed architects Neville & Bagge in the early 1900s, began life with two 3,000 square foot, 10-room apartments per floor. After adapting to changing times, this atypical home came to be. In other units, this floor plan has been converted to a two bedroom but currently allows for an ample entry gallery and a wide open gourmet kitchen with a large dining island that flows naturally into the living and dining areas. Warm, dark wood floors, freshly painted white walls and high ceilings with crown and cove molding give this charming, pre-war beauty a slightly contemporary feel. Double French doors lead to the super-quiet bedroom. The sparkling white, windowed bath boasts basket weave floors and a pedestal sink. The financially sound building is pet and pied-a-terre friendly and considers gifting, guarantors and co-purchasing on a case by case basis. Along with the full-time doorman, there is a resident super and a porter. 590 West End Avenue also offers bicycle storage, a central laundry room and private storage lockers (with a wait list) as well as the BuildingLink communication system.
