500 West End Ave, 6-E

500 West End Ave, 6E - Elegant Edwardian Five!

Schwartz and Gross were arguably the most prolific architects in New York City during the years leading up to the First World War. Their contribution to the landscape of the Upper West Side is singular-having left their mark on modest middle-class tenement buildings and luxurious limestone towers alike. 500 West End Avenue, sitting proudly on a premier stretch of the Upper West Side, represents some of their finest work: an entire building of voluminous prewar apartments with extra-high ceilings, gracious proportions, and beautiful architectural detailing and Apartment 6E epitomizes this achievement.

Stepping into the apartment reveals a layout where everything is just as it ought to be. On your left is a proper entry closet just at the threshold to the beautifully scaled Living Room, positioned at the heart of the home and filled with soft northern light. The Living Room connects through an oversized doorway to the demure-yet-sophisticated Formal Dining Room with an eastern exposure, and the beautifully renovated windowed Kitchen is sure to bring out the inner epicurean in everyone. The Kitchen features high-end appliances, abundant cabinetry, and a serene, elegant aesthetic.

Also off of the Living Room are two oversized Bedrooms and two renovated Bathrooms, including a primary bedroom with en-suite bath and a second bedroom with double exposures and generous closet space, all enjoying lovely southern light. Throughout the home, the apartment stands as a veritable study in classic Upper West Side prewar architecture, proudly displaying sumptuous wood floors, high baseboards, extra-high ceilings, and intricate picture moldings.

500 West End Avenue sits at the crossroads of everything that makes the Upper West Side so desirable-mere block from Riverside Park, neighborhood cafés and restaurants, gourmet grocers, and convenient subway and bus transportation.

Come see for yourself how a thoughtful renovation paired with masterful prewar bones on a prime Upper West Side block can create a truly special home. This is a co-exclusive with The Millstein Group LLC.
