285 Central Park West, 10-S

This rare, high floor, over 3500 square foot, 4 plus bedroom overlooking Central Park is located in the St. Urban, one the city's grand beaux arts apartment buildings. Elegant bones and dramatic views adorn this home- it is just waiting for a restoration and renovation.

Off a semi private landing, one enters into this beautiful, bright home with over 10ft ceilings and 57 feet and 4 rooms of unobstructed views of Central Park and the Reservoir. Currently the double living room, formal dining room and the master bedroom suite face the Park, but the layout could be changed to put all entertaining rooms on the front and to open the kitchen so that it has a view as well.

The enfilade of windows on the Park is mesmerizing. The master suite facing the Park has a huge walk in closet and dressing area and large windowed bathroom with an open view West. The bedroom wing has 2-3 more bedrooms depending on needs, as well as a spacious staff room and bathroom. There are also enough bathrooms to service each of the 3 additional bedrooms as well as a hall powder room.

The oversized windowed eat in kitchen has a 6 burner Viking stove/oven, a Traulsen refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher with tons of pantry space. It can be a cook's delight as well as a great place to congregate.

This space is truly specular with its views from the perfect level over the Park, the enormous windows, light, architectural details, high ceilings, location and size.

Built in 1906, the St. Urban was designed by Robert T. Lyons. This 13-story, full service cooperative has 56 apartments, with just two apartments per landing. Amenities include a 24 hour doorman, basketball court, fully equipped gym and bike storage. Please note, there is a 2% of purchase price flip tax payable by seller.
