Property Description for 390 West End Ave, 9-ABC

Built on a grand scale, The Apthorp was designed for bold living and lavish entertaining. Now a limited number of New Yorkers will be able to re-create this vision, uniting The Apthorps palace-like construction with the conveniences of modern living.

For those requiring ultra-large spaces, this 8,440 sq ft home might provide the perfect opportunity. Occupying an entire quadrant of the building, two units (A & B) have already been joined. The 3,100 sq ft C-line can be incorporated into a full-quadrant design or remain an independent space. Although some original details remain, the C-line has been partially demolished and awaits the attention of its new owner.

The gracious and richly detailed rooms of 9AB radiate from a lovely entry gallery. 5,340 sq ft of interior space incorporate high-ceilinged rooms with elegant plaster ceiling motifs, multiple mantles, and beautiful flooring. The new owner can leave the layout largely intact or re-design the space to suit his needs. This high-floor corner home enjoys a brilliant halo of light and quintessential City views.

With innate beauty and unique architectural qualities, The Apthorp holds a legendary position in the world of Manhattan real estate. One of New Yorks few residential structures built around a large internal courtyard, its limestone-clad facade and filigree gates create a spirited and uplifting aura.

This not-to-be-missed treasure evokes the memory of New Yorks Gilded Age.

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.
