Property Description for 505 West End Ave, 3-B



11 Sunny Windows Onto Treetops – Cinematic History Here

-5-Star renovated, designer, park-block home in coveted South-East corner of its well-run, prized building. The New York Times wrote that this address is "A Calm Oasis Near the Buzz of Broadway.”

-Owners painstakingly spent a year taking this pre-war home back to its studs, and then lovingly rebuilt it (new floors – new copper plumbing – new electric – new Italian marble – new herringbone oak floors – new everything) -- creating a beautiful, smartly planned, flexible residence. This home is a new development in an historic address.

-Barbara Streisand filmed her romantic comedy "The Mirror Has Two Faces" in this very residence, and Rachmaninoff composed his most famous works at this enviable address.

-Big rooms – large open living and dining rooms off of over-scaled foyer/gallery -- gloriously scaled bedrooms -- ideal layout for stretching out and for refined entertaining. Ample designer closets -- top-shelf finishes throughout (Perrin & Rowe, Restoration Hardware), and premium appliances in the custom, designer windowed kitchen (Subzero, Wolf, Miele). Custom, designer, windowed marble baths -- washer/dryer.

-Landmarked, sunshiny, treetop views from every single one of this custom home’s 11 windows (no interior views at all) in this rarely available coveted corner home. The treasured L-shape of this line allows for a split guest suite with its own full bath.

-A 3rd bath addition and central AC permitted with board approval. Storage and bike rooms and building laundry downstairs – full-service building with live-in superintendent.

-Location comes with bragging rights: Every area cultural, shopping and dining destination – and Riverside and Central Parks (not to mention a plethora of easy transportation options) are at your doorstep.

(NOTE: Buyer pays 1% flip tax.)

Upper West Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Bracketed on its east and west borders by massive city parks, the Upper West Side (UWS) is known for its greenery, stately and elegant townhomes, safe streets and great schools, all of which make it a very desirable neighborhood for families. The UWS has maintained its community feeling, making it attractive to young professionals and retirees, both of whom want a sense of belonging in the place they call home.

Here you’ll find many apartment buildings, especially those along Central Park West. Historic architecture abounds, anchored by four luxury co-ops - the San Remo, Majestic, Century and Eldorado apartments - all of which have two towers on their interiors. They were built in the 1930s and their design was predicated on a 1929 building code that imposed a height limit on residences facing the street. There are also impressive row houses near Riverside Drive throughout the W 70 and 80 Streets. Above the 90s, you will find smaller buildings where walk-ups are very reasonably priced.

There are several world-class museums and venues dedicated to the performing arts. Plentiful dining can be found in the UWS. You will find everything from quaint Jewish delis serving up bagels and a schmear to sophisticated fine dining that has earned multiple Michelin stars, and everything you could possibly want in between. There is also abundant shopping and a vibrant nightlife.
