SOARING 11' CEILINGS - RARE PRE-WAR CLASSIC SEVEN WITH GILDED AGE ELEGANCE Step into a stunning masterpiece at 490 West End Avenue off of the raised lobby level, paying homage to the opulence of the Gilded Age. This beautiful classic seven, located on the first level of a distinguished Upper West Side cooperative, has been meticulously renovated, blending modern luxury with exquisite pre-war details. This home showcases craftsmanship that's both rare and irreplaceable. With soaring 11-foot ceilings (higher than any other floor), the grandeur of this home is evident from the moment you enter the gracious foyer. The expansive formal dining room, wood-paneled and adorned with a decorative fireplace mantle and an intricately filigreed mirror, invites lavish gatherings. The space is enriched by polished oak parquet floors with mahogany borders and 9-foot French doors, all beautifully preserved. Picture-frame walls, custom tile work, and large wood-framed windows throughout add further touches of refinement. Every detail has been thoughtfully designed to evoke the charm of a grand townhouse while being nestled in a full-service building. The apartment is pin-drop quiet, offering a serene retreat from the city. The windowed eat-in kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances including a La Cornue cooking range, Subzero refrigerator, full size Subzero wine cooler, and a plethora of practical and thoughtful custom cabinets. The adjacent maid's room features a half bath & a Washer/Dryer, providing a versatile space for an office, study, or nursery. Down a private hallway, separate from the entertaining spaces, are three generously sized bedrooms and a windowed bath. The master bedroom boasts an original shaving sink and a rare and charming built-in wall safe. 490 West End Avenue is a 12-story, full-service cooperative featuring a 24-hour doorman, live-in super, spacious storage lockers, bicycle room, laundry room, gym, pet-friendly policy and new outdoor common seating area/garden space to relax and enjoy. Ideally located just a block from Riverside Park, with convenient access to transportation, fine dining, and boutique shopping, this historic residence blends architectural grandeur with modern comfort-the perfect home for those who appreciate the best of both worlds.
