45 East 89th Street, 40-EFG

Floating high above the city, this 40th floor, expansive four bedroom, three bath, home wraps two corners and offers intoxicating views over ALL of Central Park and the NYC skyline. A large entry opens to a living room with "full on", really remarkable, views of the entire of Central Park from 59th Street (Central Park South) to 110th and beyond, including a direct view over blocks of some of the most beautiful and historic architecture in NYC, all land-marked. The largest expanse of water (106 acres of water) in Central Park, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, is directly in front of you and the reflection of light, at any time of day, from this lake of water is, not only captivating and exciting, but soothing. There is a 1.58 mile jogging track around this reservoir accessed one block away at 90th and Fifth Avenue. A truly great water view is hard to find. In addition, there is a glass solarium off the living room with all of these same views. The renovated kitchen includes a large south facing picture window with open views down Madison and Fifth Avenues, in addition to Central Park. After the sun goes down, this view "lights up". An adjacent Central Park facing bedroom off the living room doubles easily as a media room/study. The public rooms of the apartment are complimented by a separate and generous wet bar area. A bedroom hall leads to three bedrooms; the double master bedroom (two rooms combined), offers a wall of windows with gorgeous views north to the George Washington Bridge and beyond. There are two additional bedrooms sharing a hall bathroom. A large laundry room with an additional entrance to the apartment offers substantial extra space for storage. 45 East 89th Street is a fully serviced doorman building (drive in courtyard) located one block from Central Park. The totally unexpected rooftop amenities include an Olympic sized SWIMMING POOL with all natural light, major sun and sky, and views everywhere. This is an amazing pool for anyone who likes to get their exercise through swimming, or anyone who just wants to lounge with open sky and light....outdoors when the weather permits. There is also a separate wading pool for those who prefer that. On this floor too is a new gym with the same sunlight and views, plus an outdoor terrace with lounge chairs over the Park and Reservoir. One could call all of this happy and rejuvenating. And, for those who like a parking garage with direct access to your home, there is one.
