MOTIVATED SELLER!
Your Four-Season Pavilion,
A Unique Piece of History
THE OPPORTUNITY:
Would you ever dream, in the most lavish one - bedroom / 1.5 - bath condominium apartment, of the luxury of three protected exposures onto the entirety of Central Park toward the East and North, the mesmerizing City Skyline toward the South, and a Western exposure to boot, just ... to admire the sunset skies?
If you asked to find the safest real estate investment in New York, wouldn’t you agree that the uniqueness of a top luxury historic landmark condominium on Central Park may be just it? Nobody today nor tomorrow can build history, and very few pieces of real estate in the world deserve as many superlatives as this apartment, the Century, and this very location.
LAY-OUT, FEATURES AND VIEWS:
Foyer: An elegant square foyer, beautifully preserved 1930’s walnut floors, high ceilings discretely underlined by basket-handle moldings sets the tone: welcome to your recently and meticulously restored apartment, where every historic details was respected and enhanced.
This charming room can easily double as a dining foyer off the kitchen, or a small office.
Living Room: Step down into the impressive 28-ft sunken Living Room: perched very high on the building tower, you won’t miss a tree or hidden lake of Central Park; but if you believe that these fall views are the nicest you ever saw, come back around at night and rediscover the mesmerizing Central Park South skyline and the most glorious army of statuesque buildings any city has ever created, like a chessboard of superhuman dimension.
The original art-deco limestone fireplace is a charming centerpiece to this opulent room. The polished steel paneled windows are the perfect frame to the timeless views at your feet.
Master Bedroom: The huge Master Suite, worthy of its name, occupies an entire East and North corner and draws the park in from three oversized windows.
Master Bathroom: The stunningly restored windowed master bathroom follows the prompt of this apartment’s 1930’s essence, and so is the powder room off the gallery entry.
Kitchen: The windowed kitchen with sunset views is redundant: who needs to cook on this block? But it was gutted and renovated entirely a few years ago.
Looking for a Nook: If you were on a search for an extra den or home office, this superb corner bedroom or the entry gallery will facilitate that need without compromise and at a fraction of a 2BR budget.
