Description
Elegance abounds in this turn-of-the-century, absolutely gorgeous corner 7-room, three bedroom. This residence has a real townhouse feel, with tree-top views. There is a true wow factor when you enter: 12'7 ceilings provide a sense of volume and spaciousness and ten-foot high windows usher in beautiful light. The original tiger oak wainscoting is in perfect, restored condition. A cleverly conceived entry gallery opens to the living room through glass-paneled French oak doors. Adjacent dining and living room with beamed oak ceilings and extraordinary period detail provide a welcoming environment for entertaining as well as everyday living. Fall in love with the large, windowed, eat-in cook's kitchen: it is newly and masterfully renovated with top appliances (such as Sub-Zero, Viking and Thermador), deep stainless steel aproned sink, white glass countertops and backsplash, incredible storage that extends all the way to the ceiling, and adjacent renovated powder room with Ann Sacks tile. Additional historic details include patterned oak floors, original stained glass windows and original hardware, contributing to the very special and unique nature of this apartment. There are three good size bedrooms (one with a sleeping loft that maximizes space efficiency), two full baths and a half bath. Additional features include dual-zone central air conditioning (note there is a water-usage surcharge associated with the central air, which averages approximately $200/month), designer lighting and full size washer/dryer. 645 West End Avenue has a full-time doorman, live-in superintendent, is proximate to three major subway lines and all the conveniences of Broadway. It has a large landscaped roof deck with river views, a fitness room on the roof, bike and basement storage and is pet friendly. Enjoy living a block from Riverside Park, whose sports fields, playgrounds, walking paths and dog runs make it the most user-friendly park in town. Showings begin Monday, September 12
