Property Description for 145 West 79th Street, 11-B

Welcome home to this lovely prewar two bedroom, one bathroom apartment with a large living room and eat in kitchen in the heart of the Upper West Side. Located on quiet West 79th Street, this home has large south-facing windows in both the living room and primary bedroom allowing an abundance of natural light, direct sunshine, open city views and open sky.

Apartment 11B has plenty of prewar charm including beamed ceilings, formal entry hall with coat closet, original wood floors, and both the eat-in kitchen and bathroom have windows. The kitchen, with stainless steel appliances and a large wine fridge, also has an eat-in area with a banquette. The second bedroom, currently used as a home office, is easily restored to its original layout. There are excellent closets throughout and window A/Cs.

The Emery Roth-designed Manchester House cooperative has maintained its beautiful original prewar facade and lobby. It is well run with a live-in, hands-on Resident Manager, Doorperson from 8:30am-11:30pm daily, bike room, basement laundry, storage, and the co-op permits pieds-a-terre, guarantors and gifting. One dog permitted per apartment.

West 79th Street between Columbus Avenue and Amsterdam Avenue is one of the loveliest blocks in the neighborhood. The tree beds and planters on much of the block are planted and many buildings have benches on the sidewalk. It is also proximate to excellent transportation, many iconic UWS shops, delis, and restaurants, the Museum of Natural History, the wonderful Sunday morning Museum Greenmarket, and both Central and Riverside Parks.

Currently there is a monthly assessment of $66 through December 2023 to balance the budget.

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.
