Property Description for 225 Central Park West, 305

PURE PERFECTION ON THE PARK

Welcome to apartment 305 - a truly exceptional and rare home that has it all: enormous lofty space, storage galore, great light and incredible location, all beautifully wrapped up in a completely and meticulously renovated 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom residence at the Alden.

EIGHT OVERSIZED WINDOWS DIRECTLY FACING CENTRAL PARK, present an impressive view of gorgeous treetops and invite natural light to stream through, creating a calming oasis from the city life below. The airy and open layout of the apartment combined with the reclaimed white oak floors and super-luxe modern fixtures and finishes, makes you almost forget that you are in a century-old building.

As soon as you step foot into this luxurious home, you are greeted by a grand foyer and a massive 8'x6' walk-in closet, large enough to hide strollers, bikes and scooters. The foyer flows seamlessly into the Great Room - a sprawling 30-foot-wide loft-like space with a wall of windows showcasing the light and treetops of the park. This living/dining space leads directly into a serene den that can serve as a media room, office, or even a fourth bedroom with full en-suite bath.

Open to the living/dining room is a designer chef's kitchen that perfectly blends aesthetic appeal with function. Top-of-the-line appliances by Sub-Zero and Viking, Celador countertops, marble backsplash and custom cabinetry give the kitchen a clean, streamlined look, while also providing ample storage. The cherry on top is a bonus pantry, neatly tucked away behind a pocket door, with additional storage and wine fridge.

The primary suite is quietly split from the other bedrooms. It enjoys lovely eastern light and faces Central Park. It features a massive, outfitted walk-in dressing room with custom storage and an en-suite Glassos Crystal marble bath with double sink, step-in glass shower and radiant heat floors. Two additional bedrooms line the west wing of the apartment - both with renovated marble baths and custom closets. A cozy nook in between the bedrooms can be used as a play area or office space.

Additional features include new Skyline windows, Central AC, W/D, reverse osmosis water filter, ample storage and custom closets and hardware throughout.

The historic Alden, known for its stunning facade and luxurious lobby, is a full-service, white glove building designed by the renowned architect Emery Roth in 1926. Amenities include a spectacular landscaped roof terrace with panoramic views of Central Park and the midtown skyline, a parking garage accessed from within the building, full time doorman, concierge, on-site management, a bicycle room and laundry room. This is a well-run co-op with strong financials and no flip tax. Pieds-a-terre and pets are allowed.

Located on the prime corner of Central Park West and 82nd Street, the Alden is at the epicenter of the Upper West Side - directly across from Central Park, close to the Museum of Natural History and a wonderful selection of shops and restaurants. Transportation is easy with the B/C subway and crosstown express bus just one block away.

With its immaculate renovation, fabulous location, great views and layout, this home is pure perfection.

Central Park West | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Home to some of New York City’s most famous buildings like The Dakota, with its enchanting architecture, and the equally impressive San Remo just a couple streets away, Central Park West is one of the most eye-popping neighborhoods to live in. 

It is historically renowned for its blending of architecture and residential living. So much so, that it earned a listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It is thought to have some of the most diverse and beautiful skylines in all of New York and has drawn celebrity residents for decades

If world-class architecture isn’t enough for you, there are plenty of warm brownstones to be found as well. There is so much to do in Central Park West, the most obvious being in the name of the neighborhood itself. With Central Park running the length of one of its borders, there’s easy access to the park and all its wonders, running trails, row boats, and bridges. If you prefer the indoors, the American Museum of Natural History is at your service. 

There are few places in the world that can match Central Park West’s varied combination of urban and residential charm, elegance, and spirit.
