Beautifully Renovated Prewar One-Bedroom on the Upper West Side

The perfect marriage of classic prewar charm and sophisticated modern design, this beautifully renovated one-bedroom, one-bathroom residence offers exceptional style and quality in a prime Upper West Side location, just moments from Riverside Park.

In mint condition and thoughtfully renovated with high-quality finishes throughout, the apartment retains the architectural character that makes prewar homes so desirable. Soaring 10'4" ceilings, exposed brick, original hardwood floors, elegant crown moldings and oversized windows create a wonderful sense of space and light, while recessed lighting adds a contemporary touch.

The inviting living room is distinguished by a handsome decorative fireplace, providing a charming focal point and adding warmth and character to the space. The sleek, beautifully appointed kitchen features stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops and a matching quartz backsplash, combining clean, contemporary design with everyday functionality.

Every detail of this residence reflects a thoughtful balance of timeless architectural elements and modern refinement, creating a stylish and comfortable home that is truly move-in ready.

Built in 1921, 304 West 88th Street is an intimate, four-story prewar cooperative comprising just 20 residences. The pet-friendly building offers laundry facilities and flexible purchasing policies, including co-purchasing, guarantors, parents purchasing for children and pieds-à-terre. Subletting is permitted with board approval. The building has also benefited from a program of capital improvements, including upgrades to the roof, plumbing, boiler, facade and security systems.

Ideally situated on a quiet, tree-lined block between West End Avenue and Riverside Drive, the building is a half block from Riverside Park and convenient to the neighborhood's celebrated restaurants, cafés, specialty food shops and shopping along Broadway and Amsterdam Avenue. The nearby 1, 2 and 3 subway lines and M-86 crosstown bus provide excellent access to the rest of Manhattan.

A beautifully finished home offering the best of classic Upper West Side living with the ease and sophistication of a modern renovation.
