246 W End Ave APT 6A, New York, NY 10023

Nestled within a historic gem of New York City, this extraordinary 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment, located in a building meticulously designed by the renowned architect J.E.R. Carpenter in 1913, offers a rare blend of pre-war elegance and contemporary potential. As you step into the spacious foyer, you'll be immediately struck by the timeless charm and character that define this residence. Soaring high ceilings create an airy and open atmosphere throughout, while original pre-war details, such as intricate moldings and period-specific fixtures, transport you back to a bygone era of architectural sophistication. The apartment's herringbone hardwood floors add a touch of understated luxury, guiding you into the expansive living and dining area. Currently the kitchen is walled off, but as shown in the virtually staged photo, you may open the wall (with board approval) for an open-concept space that will be perfect for both entertaining and relaxation, with two wood-burning fireplaces; one fireplace graces the living area, creating an inviting ambiance for gatherings, while the other, located in the bedroom, offers a cozy retreat on chilly evenings. Oversized windows, featuring southern and western exposures, allow natural light to flood the apartment and provide enchanting city views. Gaze out at the urban landscape, watching as the city evolves beneath you, while the radiators remain discreetly hidden by radiator boxes, maintaining the apartment's elegant aesthetic. This property offers an exciting opportunity for customization, allowing you to design the layout to your own unique taste. The canvas is yours to envision, whether you wish to maintain the historic charm or infuse a modern sensibility into this remarkable space. This 2-bed, 2-bath pre-war apartment is a rare find, where the craftsmanship of a bygone era meets the potential of the future. It is an oasis of tranquility within the bustling city, a place where you can create your own sanctuary while preserving the timeless elegance of New York's architectural heritage.
