Property Description for 490 West End Ave, 1-D

A beautiful apartment (circa 1910) located on the lobby level of 490 West End Avenue at the corner of 83rd Street, in one of the most sought after cooperatives on the Upper West Side. This home is being offered for sale for the first time ever. A gorgeous classic 7 apartment, #1D has 11 foot ceilings and a plethora of original details including a gorgeous wood paneled Formal Dining Room, decorative fireplace mantle with filigree framed mirror above it, original 9 foot glass French doors, original antique light fixtures, large wood framed windows, and polished oak parquet floors with mahogany border throughout.

If you love the history of architecture and the charm of townhouse living, but want to be in a full-service building, this is the marriage of both worlds and may just be the home of your dreams.

As you enter the unit you are welcomed by a gracious square foyer which opens up to both the Living Room and the Formal Dining Room. The space is inviting and great for holiday gatherings or entertaining. There is a large windowed eat-in-kitchen with original glass cabinetry. Off of the kitchen is a half bath and an ample sized maid's room which can easily be used as an office or study.

Down a long hallway, which provides total separation from the entertaining space, are three wonderful bedrooms and a windowed hallway bath. There is a Jack and Jill bath between the master and 2nd bedroom and the master bedroom even has an original shaving sink, plus an original built-in wall safe (combination included)--quite charming!

490 West End Avenue is a 12 story full service cooperative with 5 units per floor, 24 hour doorman, live-in super, excellent financials and low maintenance. The building is pet friendly, has storage cages, a bicycle room, laundry room, and a gym. Individual washer dryers are allowed, with board approval.

This is a very convenient location with easy access to transportation, a block from Riverside Park, and in close proximity to many fine restaurants and shops.

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.
