Property Description for 249 West End Ave

For the first time in generations, a rare opportunity emerges on West End Avenue-a mansion steeped in history, built in 1910 with a timeless elegance that whispers of another era. Its high ceilings create a sense of grandeur, while exquisite period details speak to the craftsmanship of a bygone age. The rooms, with their generous proportions, seem to breathe with the stories they have held, their newly refinished hardwood floors gleaming like polished memories.

Currently configured as seven distinct units, each retains the charm of its origins, standing as a testament to both history and adaptability. The building is rent-stabilized, offering not just space, but an anchor in a city where constancy is rare. Step outside and you're in the heart of everything-amazing restaurants and vibrant shopping are moments away, with major subway lines just minutes from your door.

This is more than a property; it's a world waiting to be rediscovered, filled with potential and the promise of new chapters written in a place that already knows how to hold them.

Lincoln Square | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Centered, in name and location, around the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, Lincoln Square’s history is heavily steeped in strong African American and Afro-Caribbean roots. Iconic jazz pianist, Thelonious Monk, is counted among its many former artistic and professional denizens.

The neighborhood is beloved for its amazing shopping, its distinguished art scene, and phenomenal restaurants--and don’t forget Central Park. From Lincoln Square, one is at the gateway to virtually everything New York City has to offer, either in your backyard or via excellent subway access.

With its beautiful pre-war architecture surrounded by some of NYC’s premier skyscrapers, Lincoln Square has become a safe, much sought after neighborhood. If you like living in the action, there are few places in the world that can rival Lincoln Square.
