Welcome to 789 West End Ave; architects Neville & Bagge's rare 1916 pearl in the Venn Diagram of architecture offering the perfect marriage of Pre-World War I-era form -- soaring ceilings, intricate mouldings, and an ample service wing -- with 1920s functionality -- gracious proportionality, increased closet and bathroom count, and seamless flow. Apartment 8C is not only congruous with the larger specialness of the building, its meticulous renovation further serves to enhance it! Entering into the inviting foyer, one immediately gets a sense of scale as the principal rooms unfold to the right. An almost square living room sits side-by-side with a beautiful dining room - both rooms bathed in natural Northern light and looking out through five oversized windows towards the beaux arts beauties along the quiet side street. Immediately across the gallery from the dining room is the fully renovated eat-in kitchen. Not merely a proverbial "chef's kitchen," the large space is smartly-appointed with separate wall oven, a pot spout over the stove, wine storage, and a farmhouse sink to truly function perfectly for the modern epicurean. Beyond the gallery and public rooms lay three ample bedrooms - two of which have double exposures - each with abundant closet space, lovely light, and en-suite access to a renovated bathroom. Additionally, off of the kitchen is a service wing with a vented washer/dryer, a gracious office/guest space, and a third full bathroom. The apartment has every extra imaginable - from central air conditioning to the bench in the master shower to the three exposures allowing the light to pour in and fill the space (the eighth floor is actually the first floor in the building to clear the surrounding buildings) -- and the fact that it sits within a well-run and financially robust coop offering a bike room, storage, common garden, and attended lobby, is the cherry on top!
