Some homes almost surprise you when you first walk in and this three bedroom apartment at The Westly in Manhattan honestly does exactly that. I found myself drifting through the foyer into the living space and just pausing for a second because the light pours in through these massive windows and makes everything feel kind of open and easy. You hear about luxury properties in New York all the time but something about actually being inside this one makes it real. The kitchen is all done up with what looks like high end appliances and solid finishes but more than that it actually feels like somewhere you'd want to stand around and have a long coffee in the morning or do some real cooking rather than just heating up takeout. The way it blends into the big living room makes everything feel connected so you can see friends talking at the table while someone else is curled up on the sofa and nobody feels left out.
The three bedrooms are all genuinely comfortable. Sometimes with city apartments you get one or two proper bedrooms and then a third that feels a bit like an afterthought but here each one really works as its own space. The master bedroom especially just feels uncluttered and calming and the en suite bathroom attached is both sleek and practical. There is a walk in closet too and that actually matters if you have more than just a few shirts and shoes. The other bedrooms are friendly for guests or family and since the apartment is unfurnished you get to decide what fits you best. Even details like the separate space for laundry actually make life a bit easier. Sometimes those little things really do make a big difference day to day.
You'll also notice the building itself offers more than just a home. At Westly Residences it is sort of its own community. There is this residents lounge that actually feels welcoming not formal and the health club has modern equipment plus dedicated yoga and music rooms that people really do use. Even if you have kids or visiting younger family members the playroom is pretty nice and not just an afterthought. The game room gets sunlight too. And no matter what you always have those big windows in your own space letting you look out over the tree line. It sounds simple but you end up watching the city for a bit each morning.
Sometimes luxury buildings in Manhattan can feel a bit anonymous where everyone just goes in and closes their door but when you tour The Westly it's different. People sometimes nod hello in the lift. Kids come in with ice cream in summer from somewhere not far. The whole Upper West Side has that established old New York feeling but here it just feels a little softer around the edges. You're close to the best coffee shops grocery stores and just a few blocks walk from the park. Even the entrance to the building is bright with plants around and the concierge is someone you end up chatting to.
Honestly there is a real sense you could just settle in here without having to force anything to feel like home. The built up area is a good size at over 1800 square feet so you have that bit of extra stretch that makes a difference especially if you work from home or have guests often. Plus being in Manhattan you have subway lines close by so getting downtown or across the city isn't hard.
If you're thinking about a move to New York or just want to see how a place like this actually feels in person I would really recommend coming by. You can walk through at your own pace and just get a sense for whether it matches your daily life. If you have any questions or just want to know more about the neighborhood or the building let me know. At LuxuryProperty.com we understand moving is more than just finding the right number of rooms. It's about how it feels to live there. Reach out any time.
