Property Description for 150 West 79th Street, 2-EF

MINT, MODERN, AND MAGNIFICENT UWS GEM

This sun-drenched, 3-bedroom (plus office) apartment has been meticulously renovated to create a home that perfectly blends the charm of classic pre-war architecture with contemporary style, attention to detail, and state of the art fixtures and finishes.

Enter residence 2EF through a custom-built mudroom where you can easily hang your coat, store your shoes, or park your scooter. As you walk into the apartment, sunlight pours in through the oversized wall-to-wall windows in the south-facing great room. Overlooking beautiful treetops and townhouse gardens, the expansive great room stretches nearly 24 feet wide and is adorned with high beamed ceilings and wide-plank oak flooring, which run throughout the home. Adjacent to the great room, is a separate, windowed home office customized with shelving and desk space for two.

The grand windowed kitchen is a cook's dream. It has been exquisitely customized with lacquered Leicht cabinetry, Glassos countertops, and tremendous storage and counter space. Luxury appliances include Liebherr refrigerator, wine fridge, Miele dishwasher, and Bosch oven and cooktop.

The tranquil primary bedroom is peaceful retreat with its southern exposure overlooking treetops. It offers two large, customized closets and an en-suite bathroom with glass-enclosed stall shower, ceramic tiles, radiant heated floors, and incredible storage. Tucked away on the other side of the apartment, and separated from the living space by a long hallway, the two additional bedrooms are well-proportioned and share a spacious bathroom featuring a gorgeous Kohler cast iron double sink.

Additional features include abundant storage, thermostat controlled through-the-wall PTAC heating and cooling units, and full-sized Electrolux washer and vented dryer.

Situated on one of the best double-wide blocks on the Upper West Side, 150 West 79th Street is a handsome prewar cooperative featuring part-time door staff, live-in super, individual storage units, bike room, and central laundry area. The building's amenities include two outdoor spaces - a gorgeous, furnished roof deck with incredible views of the southern skyline and a lovely backyard garden with play area and tables. Prime location just steps from the Museum of Natural History, Central Park, public transportation, and the best grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping the Upper West Side has to offer. Pet friendly and 75% financing permitted. Truly one-of-a-kind rare gem that is not to be missed.

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.
