895 W END Avenue #1D

This high first floor fully renovated corner home embraces a classic layout with Post Victorian pre-war details, extraordinary near 12ft ceilings, numerous French doors, elaborate moldings, mahogany in-laid hardwood floors and a decorative fireplace. All of this is enhanced by extensive custom built-ins for display and storage. This wonderful home is in a distinguished Upper West Side building designed by Gaetano Ajello for the Paterno Brothers. The high first floor assures complete privacy. The side-by side Living and Dining rooms face north onto lovely 104th street (views currently impeded by scaffolding for soon-to-be installed new windows). The windowed eat-in Kitchen is beautifully appointed - granite countertop, honed Carrera marble backsplash, and black granite and Carrera marble floors. It also includes a television and washer/dryer. There are 2 generous Bedrooms and 2 fully renovated Bathrooms. In addition, the Staff room is now a fully equipped office with custom mahogany cabinetry throughout. All in all, it's simply a strikingly beautiful home. This iconic neighborhood building has a live-in superintendent and door attendant. One of the most admired buildings in the area, its apartments, architectural details, and wide & tall French windows are outstanding examples of the best of this design period. The building is located on one of the area's most desirable blocks with an extraordinarily accomplished block association (see www.bloomingdale.org). This is a wonderful offering in the Upper West Side's most dynamic neighborhood featuring an exciting and broad-based renaissance of Riverside Park, along with numerous new luxury developments, cafes & restaurants, shopping, and entertainment.
