Property Description for 490 West End Ave, 3-D

Welcome home to Apartment 3D at 490 West End Avenue - a true three-bedroom, three-bathroom residence in a classic Upper West Side prewar full service building.

Upon entry, you're immediately struck by soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and beautifully preserved original details that set the tone for the entire home. A gracious, oversized foyer flows seamlessly into a proper living room anchored by a decorative fireplace and framed by elegant picture molding - the kind of space that feels both grand and inviting.

Through original French doors, a formal dining room offers the perfect setting to host, comfortably accommodating a table for eight.

The eat-in kitchen is accessed through a charming original wood-paneled door complete with a porthole window - a rare and delightful prewar touch. Inside, you'll find full-size stainless steel appliances including a Frigidaire four-burner gas range, Frigidaire refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and LG stacked washer/ and vented dryer. The space blends function with character, featuring marble countertops, a peninsula, floating sink, display shelving, and an original built-in dining hutch. There's also room for casual dining for four, along with access to a bonus windowed full bathroom with clawfoot tub and an adjacent pantry or home office nook.

The bedroom wing is thoughtfully separated down a long hallway, creating a sense of privacy from the entertaining spaces. The primary suite enjoys bright southern exposure and features an en-suite full bath. The second bedroom is generously sized with two large closets and excellent natural light, while the third bedroom benefits from dual exposures. These bedrooms share a windowed full bathroom with a classic pedestal sink and tub/shower combination.

Additional features include hardwood floors throughout, approximately 10-foot ceilings, wood-framed windows, and pin-drop quiet interiors. The flexible layout offers multiple configuration options, making it easy to tailor the space to your needs.

490 West End Avenue is a distinguished, Italian Renaissance palazzo-style building located at the northeast corner of West End Avenue and 83rd Street. Residents enjoy a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, fitness room, bike storage, private storage, and a beautifully designed double-height lobby, along with access to a shared garden.

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.
