Prewar Perfection in the Iconic Hotel des Artistes. This rarely available two-bed, two bath duplex is meticulously renovated to combine classic design elements with modern conveniences. You will be charmed from the moment you arrive at the entry foyer with a view of its soaring 18’8” tall living room and oversized north facing windows, its entrance to a charming dining room and its sweeping staircase to the second level. The living room expands almost the full length of the residence at 21’8” long. Adjacent to the dining room is the updated windowed kitchen with granite countertops, custom cabinetry and high-end appliances including a SubZero refrigerator and Dacor oven. On the second level are two bedrooms – the primary suite offering a beautifully renovated ensuite bath and an L-shared windowed dressing area with seating. The second bedroom features access to a second bath as well as a juliette balcony overlooking the living room with room for a reading chair or desk. Throughout the residence are beautiful hardwood floors, beamed ceilings and stylish moldings, making Residence 503 a perfect home for comfortable living and gracious entertaining. The Hotel des Artistes is a full service cooperative with amenities not often available in pre-war buildings, including a full-time concierge and elevator operator, a swimming pool, a squash court with a basketball hoop, two workout rooms as well as a charming high-walled roof deck. A new American French restaurant, Air Cafe, will open in 2027 in the building’s first floor space decorated with murals of dancing nymphs painted by early resident Howard Chandler Christy. Air Cafe will offer lunch and dinner service from 12:00 noon-12:00am midnight as well as room service — all at a discount for des Artistes residents. Ideally located on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the Hotel des Artistes is close to the nature of Central Park, the cultural events of Lincoln Center and boutique shopping and popular dining on Columbus Avenue. Built in 1917 as a home for artists, the Hotel des Artistes is a majestic 18-story building with a Gothic-style facade featuring charming gargoyles of painters, sculptors and writers.
