Property Description for 390 West End Ave, 8-L

Legendary Apthorp elegance meets designer contemporary design for modern lives. This incredibly special high floor corner home has just had a complete and extensive 2 year renovation by famed Estudio Ramos, expertly combining the uniqueness of the Apthorp with the clean and comfortable aesthetic of the 21st century!

The welcoming gallery leads into the expansive living room/dining room which offers special open city views from its sun-flooded East and North corner exposure. The adjacent windowed eat-in chef's kitchen is outfitted for the most discerning chefs and has bright East facing windows onto Broadway. The den or 4th bedroom and a full bathroom complete this wing of the apartment.

The bedroom wing has 3 bedrooms all with new en-suite designer bathrooms. The sumptuous master suite with multiple closets and en suite bath are a sanctuary from a hectic day! There is also a powder room off the foyer for guests. Modern luxuries include new oversized double paned windows, wide plank hardwood floors, a washer/dryer, central air conditioning and recessed lighting through out.

The Apthorp is a New York City landmark, built for William Waldorf Astor in 1908 and named for Charles Ward Apthorp who had a 300 acre farm on the land on which the building was erected. Both the East and West gatehouses are attended, and the four residential lobbies each have their own doorman. The building boasts 6,500 newly completed amenities including a fitness center, private spa, yoga/exercise studio, steam room, sauna, an entertainment suite with bar, catering kitchen, and billiards, a playroom, additional storage and on-site parking. The Apthorp building currently benefits from a J51tax abatement reducing the annual tax for this unit from $28,446.

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.
