Property Description for 545 West End Ave, 8-A

Perched on a high floor with brilliant southeastern sunlight and city views, this palatial Classic Seven residence offers four bedrooms with the flexibility to create a fifth bedroom, all within an expansive and highly desirable prewar layout. A semi-private landing shared by only two residences leads to a gracious entry foyer that sets the tone for this exceptional home. Rich in original prewar character, the residence features soaring lofty beamed ceilings, grand living and dining rooms, king-sized bedrooms, and all four exposures, flooding the home with natural light throughout the day.

The sprawling entertaining wing includes an enormous loft-like, oversized living room and an extra large formal dining room, creating a seamless setting for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining. The thoughtfully designed layout offers multiple possibilities, including multiple options to create an open-concept kitchen, an additional dining area, library, or an additional fifth bedroom to suit your lifestyle.

The private bedroom wing features three oversized south-facing bedrooms, each bathed in sunlight and enjoying beautiful city views. All can comfortably accommodate king-sized beds along with additional furnishings. A fourth bedroom, currently situated off the kitchen with the possiblity to have its own en-suite bathroom, provides the perfect guest suite, home office, or staff room.

The windowed kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, storage, and workspace, while endless closets and storage solutions can be found throughout the home. Additional highlights include a vented in-unit washer and dryer, exceptional closet space, and the rare privacy of a semi-private floor landing.

Combining grand proportions, abundant sunlight, flexible living space, and timeless prewar elegance, this is a rare opportunity to own a truly special Classic Seven residence in the sky.
