Property Description for 201 West 89th Street, 10-E

Pre-war elegance meets modern convenience in apartment 10E at Chester Court. This 2 bedroom, south facing and sun-drenched 1.5 bath Coop has been cleverly reimagined by the current owner/architect, preserving its pre-war character with modern updates and the feel, flow and visibility of an open plan. The large eat-in kitchen has a custom built-in banquette for casual dining and a tucked away full- size vented Washer/Dryer. The classic entry foyer and adjacent gallery are expansive, providing layered and gracious public spaces with room for home office and library. Directly in line with and open to the foyer, the well-proportioned living room accommodates formal dining. Both bedrooms are generously sized with large closets. Every room has windows, and there are custom built-ins for storage throughout. The living room and primary bedroom are bathed in sunlight that reaches all the way to the kitchen. Chester Court, designed by Emery Roth and built in 1925, has a multicolor glazed terra cotta facade and elaborately painted Adamesque plasterwork and gold leaf on the lobby ceiling. A wealth of amenities are offered here, including an expansive landscaped and furnished roof deck, fitness center, basketball court/multi-purpose/party room, playroom, laundry and bicycle/storage rooms. The 24/7 doorman, live-in super and building staff are at your service, delivering mail directly to your door. One does not often find such low monthlies (which includes electricity) in a building with this level of service and amenities. Pied-a-terres, gifting, co-purchases, guarantors and parents buying for children are permitted on a case-by case basis. Pets are welcome here and this exceptional home is located in the heart of the UWS with convenient access to the area’s cultural, shopping, dining and entertainment destinations, located between Riverside and Central Parks and close to express and local subways. Pre-war elegance meets modern convenience, beautiful light and flexibility. A standout with great value here!

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.
