25 Central Park West, 3-M

Wake up in the sunny and airy master suite of apartment 3M at 25 Central Park West to direct views into the park. That is just one of the many reasons to love this bright and beautiful classic six. Other reasons include the high ceilings, the wealth of closets, the Deco moldings, the great light and the hardwood floors. You'll enter the home and step into its large 16-foot gallery. To the right is a marble powder room and a coat closet. Also to the right is the 26-foot-long living room, slightly sunken to an elegant effect. The view of Central Park is made more dramatic courtesy of the original bay windows. On the opposite side of the gallery is the gracious dining room with oversized windows. Nearly 20 feet long, the dining room can host large feasts and sophisticated soirées alike. Adjacent to the dining room is a large windowed kitchen that includes a generous-size pantry, a second sink, and a washer and dryer. Just beyond the kitchen is a lovely third bedroom or office. Alongside the living room is the master suite. More than 20 feet long, it includes two walk-in closets, a dressing area, and an oversize marble bathroom with both a bath and a shower””and of course, those windows looking out onto Central Park. The second bedroom, facing west, is easily as large as the master bedroom. It too has an en-suite marble bathroom along with a walk-in closet. Also known as the Century, 25 Central Park West is a white-glove, full-service luxury Art Deco condominium. Designed by Irwin Chanin and constructed in 1931, the building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Singled out as a “sophisticated exercise in Art Deco design” by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission, the Century includes a central garden and a bike room. Its location at 62nd Street and Central Park West puts it just a few blocks from Lincoln Center and the Time Warner Center.
