Property Description for 588 West End Ave, 12-B
RENOVATED NOUVEAU PRE-WAR
STAND OUT, STYLISH CORNER STUNNER
BRIGHT, SOULFUL HEAD-TURNER IN PRIME, PRIZED ADDRESS
In 1922, the famous architects, Schwartz & Gross, created a boutique building known for its grandly intimate scale, its comfortable and practical layouts, and its airy, light, beautiful rooms. One hundred years later, this renovated stunner proves that good things get better with time.
With gorgeous Western and Eastern sunshine, and with a quiet perch onto a treasured stretch of West End Avenue, this feel-good find stands out for all the best reasons. Here, the ceilings are higher, the rooms more grand, the layout most practical, and the vibe is soulful and stylish.
The foyer/gallery is gorgeous and lovely, and sets the style tone for the resplendent residence that unfolds before you. The luxe living room is graced by big, tall, West-facing windows, and opens to a sweet dining area. The handsome, windowed cook’s kitchen is both practical and pretty, offering ample stone counters, immense cabinet space and premium appliances, including a wine fridge.
Both bedrooms are big and beautiful -- one offering morning sunshine from the East, and the other graced by afternoon rays from the West. Both are peaceful retreats, have great closet space, big bright windows, and are served by a lovely, classic, windowed bath with curved, cast-iron soaking tub.
Sweetly positioned in the upper, sunshiny tier in its wonderfully well-served West End building, this pet and pied-a-terre friendly residence -- with in-building laundry/bike/storage rooms -- is winsome in every way. With prime access to most every area cultural, dining, shopping, and fitness destination -- and with a bevy of easy transportation options and supreme access to nearby Riverside Park -- this easy-to-love and easy-to-live home is a feel-good find for sure.

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.
