ELEVATED UWS LIVING: PENTHOUSE -- WRAP-AROUND PRIVATE TERRACE -- PANORAMIC VIEWS COMBINED INDOOR/OUTDOOR SQUARE FOOTAGE IS APPROXIMATELY 1600 SF! An urban outdoor oasis available for the first time in 50 years. . . . . . Bring your designer! High above West End Avenue, this rare and exceptional penthouse residence presents a unique opportunity to own a truly special home. Grand in scale and rich in character, the oversized one-bedroom co-op boasts a thoughtfully designed layout and remarkable architectural details throughout. Most notably, the massive wrap-around terrace is equal in measure to the interior space, providing enough room to create separate zones for cooking/dining and lounging/sunning. Further, it is surprisingly quiet, due to the fact that it is set back from the street. A welcoming entry foyer serves as the central hub of the home, seamlessly connecting each room. The gracious living room is nothing short of spectacular, featuring soaring 11-foot ceilings and abundant natural light streaming in from dawn to dusk. Elegant decorative moldings, a striking mirrored wall, and a charming decorative fireplace enhance the room’s timeless appeal. French doors lead to the terrace. The kitchen needs a complete renovation. It is currently divided into two distinct areas: a windowed workspace offering excellent light and functionality, and a separate dining area featuring built-in cabinetry, bookshelves and a skylight above. The corner bedroom enjoys open exposures to the south and west, filling the space with light and offering ample room for a king-size bed and additional furnishings. A floor-to-ceiling mirrored wall of closets provides excellent storage, in addition to the two hall closets. The windowed bathroom is equally refined, with beautifully textured tumbled tile walls and a sophisticated marble and mahogany vanity. The Belvoir, at 470 West End Avenue, built in 1928, was designed by architect George F. Pelham. There is a full-time doorman and live-in super. The magnificent marble lobby features leaded stained glass windows and other original details. Located near Riverside Park, Zabar's, and many popular restaurants; easy access to the Number 5 and 104 buses and the 1 train. This is the first time the apartment has come to market in nearly half a century! It presents a unique opportunity for a visionary buyer to reimagine the space and craft their own story here.
