Property Description for 522 West End Ave, 4-A

A Timeless Candela Classic, Reimagined for Modern Luxury

Newly renovated to perfection-every inch of this timeless, classic six home by noted architect Rosario Candela was designed to highlight its important historic ambiance, seamlessly married with the epitome of contemporary luxury and comfort.

This is the truly mint-condition home you have been seeking in a premier West Side location and building. The grand 16-foot-long formal entry leads to the most impressive suite of public rooms in this breathtaking home. Facing West End Avenue and flooded with natural light, the gracious living room overlooks green treetops and historic architecture-an ideal space to entertain or retreat in ambient luxury.

Passing through a wide, ceiling-high portal, the formal dining room is now connected to the living room and, importantly, to the 150-square-foot, windowed, sunlit kitchen.

This beautiful space was designed to highlight exquisite, top-quality materials while remaining highly functional for open-concept living, hosting, and gourmet meal preparation. It features a Thermador suite of appliances, including an additional speed oven and wine cooler. You will never again be hidden in a dark, narrow galley kitchen, closed off from family and friends. The 14-foot former staff room is now a practical and useful laundry room/home office with full-size, vented washer/dryer and excellent storage.

The bedroom wing features two ample, sunlit, west-facing bedrooms, including a 17-foot-long primary suite replete with a rare, windowed walk-in dressing room and a decadent, windowed primary bathroom with an oversized step-in rain shower, heated marble floors, and stunning fixtures and finishes.

The secondary bedroom includes a deep custom closet and is well-proportioned to accommodate a myriad of uses-from dual beds for children to a hotel-style suite for overnight guests. The second, hallway-accessed windowed bathroom features a bathtub and top-of-the-line, pristine fittings and finishes.

Countless highlights of this extraordinary home include: dual-zone central AC, all-new Pella 6/6 mullioned windows, recessed LED lighting, updated plumbing and electric, high ceilings, and solid white oak flooring throughout. Both bathrooms include radiant heated floors and rain showers for spa-like comfort. All closets are automatically lit and have custom fittings, ensuring both beauty and function throughout the home.

Built in 1924 by New York's premier pre-war architect, The Crestmont-located on the southeast corner of West End Avenue and 85th Street-is a fully staffed, pet-friendly cooperative offering a 24-hour doorman, bike storage, live-in super, central laundry room, a stunning marble lobby, and a shared garden for residents. Moments from parks, top public and private schools, two subway lines, shopping, dining, and entertainment.

75% financing is permitted. Subletting permitted with board approval; 1-year term and standard application process apply. Please note that there is no flip tax as part of this sale.

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.
