"We chose Rina on the recommendation of a very good friend. Our friend said that Rina was skilled and very professional. We found her to be that and much more. With calm, clarity, patience and assurance, she took us through the process of changing and refurbishing our apartment so it could be sold at the highest possible price.

All the people and she recommended were excellent. We depended on her every step of the way to engage, schedule and oversee the vendors; provide us with information about apartment sales in the neighborhood and other data to allow us to arrive at a minimum target price; show the apartment to prospective buyers and answer their questions and help us decide which buyers stood the best chance of being approved by the Coop Board. She also had to deal with the Board and the outside company that oversees and helps manage the coop to enable us to clear up certain legal issues that had to be dealt with in order for our apartment to be sold. Finally, Rina worked very well with the real estate attorney we retained to prepare the contracts and other legal documents needed for the transaction to close. We particularly needed all this assistance since we are living outside of New York.

Rina Longstreet is a tremendous asset." - Verified Seller

SELLER TESTIMONIAL

4 BD 2 BA 1 HB | ~2,773 Sq Ft

Co-op | Upper West Side

Baronial Classic 8 with the Gracious Proportions of a Bygone Era

Spanning over 2,700 sq ft, this serene prewar residence boasts four exposures and oversized, triple-wide windows that illuminate the space in exceptional natural light. Offered for the first time in over 50 years, this rarely available home features picturesque views of the area’s historic architecture and the lush, tree-lined street below. The interior radiates timeless character, showcased through soaring 10-ft beamed ceilings, original herringbone floors, intricate moldings, wainscoting, and 2 distinguished decorative fireplaces with ornate mantels.

Enter through a semi-private landing, you are ushered in by a nearly 25-ft wide central foyer and gallery, providing a welcoming receiving area with three large closets. The magnitude of the home is instantly felt in the 80-ft expanse that connects the grand living room to the formal dining room. Each are accessed by oversized French doors. Adjacent to the living room is a large den offering flexibility as a media room or private library. This is complemented by a handsome formal dining room for large-scale entertaining. The enormous eat-in windowed kitchen offers a rare canvas for your vision, equally suited for a high-end chef’s laboratory or a quintessential setting for a warm, inviting heart of the home.

Beyond the public spaces, there is the massive primary suite with dual exposures and a generous windowed bath. The oversized second and third bedrooms feature large closets and share a windowed bathroom with a tub. Situated at the rear of the home is a flexible fourth bedroom that can easily convert to an office space/guest room, or even a spacious pantry. Additional modern comforts include generous closets throughout and an in-unit washer/dryer.

Retaining its significant prewar character, residence 6D presents an opportunity to modernize a classic footprint while preserving the original details. All of this within a full-service co-op celebrated for its legacy of distinguished and gracious homes.

Built in 1911, the Evanston was designed by notable architects, brothers Edward and George Blum, famous for blending Arts and Crafts style with the tile, terra cotta and glazed or tinted brick they encountered in Paris while studying architecture at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. The areaway ironwork at 610 West End Avenue is an amalgam of bass clef signs and prairie-style stained glass. This boutique co-op is a full-service building in a tranquil location that offers a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, and a dedicated staff. Amenities include private storage, bicycle storage, central laundry room, and a landscaped common roof terrace.

Conveniently located between Riverside and Central Park and moments from Manhattan’s most scenic corridors. Surrounded by the neighborhood’s finest boutiques, cafes, and culinary scene with effortless access to the 1/2/3/B/C trains and multiple bus lines. Residences of this caliber are a rare find, an extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of a truly inspired setting.

The Neighborhood

The Upper West Side (UWS) is a neighborhood in the borough of Manhattan in New York City. It is bounded by Central Park on the east, the Hudson River on the west, West 59th Street to the south, and West 110th Street to the north. The Upper West Side is adjacent to the neighborhoods of Hell's Kitchen to the south, Columbus Circle to the southeast, and Morningside Heights to the north.

Like the Upper East Side opposite Central Park, the Upper West Side is an affluent, primarily residential area with many of its residents working in commercial areas of Midtown and Lower Manhattan. Similarly to the Museum Mile district on the Upper East Side, the Upper West Side is considered one of Manhattan's cultural and intellectual hubs, with Columbia University and Barnard College located just to the north of the neighborhood, the American Museum of Natural History located near its center, and Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts and Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School located at the south end.
