440 West End Avenue   Unit 11F

Large rooms and a well-designed floor plan define this 1-bedroom pre-war co-op with 24-hour doorman at the corner of West 81st Street. Wake to natural sunlight in a spacious bedroom; add a desk and king-sized bed. Crisp white counters provide ample space for cooking and entertaining in the eat-in kitchen with pantry, storage, range, microwave, and dishwasher. This quiet apartment echoes a time long past while featuring timeless details: high beamed ceilings, oak herringbone floors, picture moldings, solid core doors, brass and glass doorknobs. Luxuriate in an oversized cast-iron tub in a windowed bath. Built in 1928, this home shares a floor with only three other apartments in a classic Georgian-style building designed by noted architects Schwartz & Gross. A live-in super and handyman are among the staff of this co-op replete with an elegant terrazzo marble lobby and landings, bike room, playroom, laundry, and planted roof deck. This home is in the heart of Upper West Side arts and culture between Central and Riverside Parks and close to transportation, Zabar's, shopping and dining. Washer/dryers and pets permitted with board approval. Sorry no pied-?-terres.
