Apartment 12W in the Kenilworth has the best of everything, its magnificent rooms brilliantly lit by towering Park and City panoramas in 3 directions. A gorgeous entrance gallery, stately living room with generous bay for a Steinway and adjacent paneled formal dining room comprise the most impressive entertainment area currently available on CPW. All day sun courses through wonderfully oversized windows warming exquisite fin de siecle detail and quarter-sawn oak flooring. An ample cook's eat-in kitchen and butler's pantry contain beautiful oak cabinetry, the space for a generous dining alcove and a large staff room, or 4th bedroom with full bath. The dazzling corner primary suite and its boudoir bath are invigorated by thrilling Park and Westside vistas. Two additional bedrooms display sunny Park and skyline outlooks. Ceilings soar. Space and light abound. Windows and doors are encased in exquisite period framing. A lovely shareholders' roof terrace overlooks the entire Park. There is a large storage unit. The sumptuous lobby reflects the building's French Second Empire style of construction completed in 1908 by the eminent architect, Ralph S. Townsend. Conjuring Henry V's favorite 12th C country castle, the Kenilworth and this exemplary 3 BR, classic 7 room residence in particular offer pristine architectural detail, celestial views, attentive doorman service and the best CPW location at West 75th Street. On a thoroughfare celebrated for neo Renaissance facades and Beaux Arts towers, the Kenilworth with its moat is aptly named.
