2-bedroom apartment for sale in Upper West Side

Welcome to this beautifully renovated, pre-war gem in the heart of the Upper West Side. Bathed in natural light throughout the day and offering open north and west views from every room, this exceptional home underwent a meticulous, top-to-bottom renovation in 2024. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, blending pre-war charm with modern luxury and convenience. The stunning windowed eat-in kitchen is a dream for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring abundant Dekton countertop space, custom cabinetry, and a suite of premium appliances, including a Viking range and microwave, Bosch dishwasher, Fisher & Paykel refrigerator, and a Miele washer/dryer discreetly concealed behind custom millwork. A massive walk-in pantry/storage closet at the back of the kitchen provides exceptional utility rarely found in Manhattan apartments. Designed with both functionality and flow in mind, the kitchen can be separated from the living area by elegant glass French doors or opened fully to seamlessly connect the two spaces. The generously proportioned living room easily accommodates both living and dining areas and is anchored by a striking custom oak built-in that offers storage while providing the perfect backdrop for books, art, and other accent pieces. Additional highlights include wide-plank white oak floors, fully customized closets throughout, massive windows, and the rare luxury of grandfathered through-the-wall air conditioning in every room-including the kitchen. As the building no longer permits new through-the-wall installations, this is a highly desirable feature that sets this home apart. 514 West End Avenue is a full-service pre-war cooperative ideally situated at the corner of West End Avenue and 85th Street. Enjoy the tranquility of a quiet residential block with minimal traffic, while remaining moments from multiple subway and bus lines, Riverside Park, and the Upper West Side's wonderful restaurants, cafes, boutiques, cultural institutions, and schools. The building offers flexible ownership options, including guarantors, gifting, co-purchasing, parents buying for children, and pieds-a-terre with board approval. Pets are also welcome!
