Description

This turn-key classic 5-room residence is located in a beautiful pre-war co-op on one of the most desirable West End Avenue blocks. This corner home has been elegantly renovated and well cared for with only three apartments on the floor.

The gracious entry provides two ample sized closets with custom shelving and saloon door leading into the kitchen. This custom home’s harmonious layout also includes a large living room, formal dining room, primary suite, secondary bedroom, and 2 full baths.

There is the possibility to flex the formal dining or living room to either a den, home office, or third bedroom. The modern kitchen has white gloss-front cabinetry, stainless steel appliances including LG fridge with water/ice dispensing capabilities, Bosch dishwasher, five gas burner Whirlpool stove, and generous storage for any avid home chef or entertainer. The space also includes a GE stackable washer and dryer and service entrance.

Over the kitchen’s marble waterfall counter flows into the formal dining room which has space for six to dine with ease.

Adjacent is the living room with custom millwork for your media center and built-ins under the window to showcase books or artwork. The king-sized primary suite has a walk-in closet, under window built-ins, and windowed en-suite with glass enclosed shower and marble vanity. The secondary corner bedroom features three windows, mini walk-in closet, and custom millwork including a bookcase and home desk.

The windowed secondary bath has a marble vanity and tub. Enjoy East, West & North exposures which provide natural light and West End Avenue views. Beamed ceilings, crown moldings, pre-war picture rails, updated electrical wiring, and recessed overhead lighting complete this home.


639 West End Avenue is centrally located in the heart of the Upper Westside. Only one block from Riverside Park and close proximity to public transportation and multitude of restaurants & retail. Built in 1927 by the architectural firm of Gronenberg & Leuchtag, the building would later convert to a cooperative in 1970.

This 15-story building features 60 units, full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, bicycle storage, and individual storage bin (additional charge). Pets are welcomed.
