...Welcome to Residence 12C at 170 West End Avenue, a bright, spacious, and thoughtfully designed alcove studio located within the Upper West Side’s coveted Lincoln Towers community.

This well-proportioned home offers a flexible layout that easily accommodates designated living, sleeping, dining, and work-from-home areas. Oversized windows provide city views overlooking the tree-lined private driveway, allowing great natural light, which creates a bright and airy atmosphere. A proper entry foyer with a large coat closet provides excellent storage and a practical separation from the main living space.

The sleeping alcove is tucked away, separate from the main living area, with enough space to comfortably fit a queen-sized bed with additional furniture. Other "C" line units in the building have converted this alcove into a bedroom by adding a sliding door, offering excellent flexibility. The double-sided, walk-through closet was upgraded to maximize the apartment’s already ample storage space.

The kitchen is outfitted with granite countertops, generous cabinet storage, and stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher. The bathroom features added shelving, a marble vanity, and a glass-enclosed bathtub and shower finished with classic subway tile.

170 West End Avenue is a well-managed, full-service, pet-friendly cooperative with flexible ownership policies, permitting pied-à-terre purchases, gifting, co-purchasing, and subletting after one year, subject to board approval.

Residents enjoy access to a rare five-acre private park along with an exceptional collection of amenities, including a 24-hour doorman and concierge, live-in superintendent, on-site management and security, fitness center, bike storage, private storage, children’s playroom, package room, and laundry facilities. Spectrum and Verizon Fios are available, and the monthly maintenance conveniently includes electricity, cooking gas, and taxes.

In the heart of the Upper West Side, moments from Lincoln Center, Central Park, Riverside Park, Whole Foods at Columbus Circle, and the dining and cultural scene along Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues. Multiple subway lines (1/2/3 and A/C/E) provide seamless access throughout the city.

Residence 12C offers the perfect blend of space, light, storage, and full-service living in one of the Upper West Side’s most established and sought-after communities.
