150 West End Ave, 5-F

This is the perfect opportunity to get a wonderfully spacious 2 BR, 2 Bath apartment at a realistic price and renovate it to precisely the way you want to live, instead of compromising with someone else's lifestyle, requirements and tastes.

In original condition, this apartment affords so many options to make it uniquely yours, whether it's converting the dining alcove to a third bedroom (which many owners have done), creating a separate sitting or dining space or even an office in the enormous foyer area at the front of the 28' living room, or opening the kitchen, Of course, you may also choose your own materials, finishes, appliances, and other touches, options that are often boxes left unchecked on your wish list when buying and paying for an already upgraded home.

The photos here are of the actual apartment in its current condition, except that the ones with furniture and the modern kitchen have been virtually staged, to give you a feel for one sample design that might be achieved.

The apartment sits quietly just above the treetops of the beautiful and peaceful Lincoln Towers courtyard, in a full service, white glove building with all of the amenities, including a garage, exercise room, children's playroom, laundry, and access to the gardens, parks and playgrounds of this wonderful community. It is all just two blocks from Lincoln Center, and a short walk from Central and Riverside Parks, Trader Joe's, Fairway, Citarella and Zabar's, Columbus Circle and the Theater District, and never ending choices of cultural, dining, shopping and entertainment options.

Maintenance includes utilities. And this marvelous opportunity, already in the most family friendly community in Manhattan, is in the coveted PS 199 school zone. It won't last.
