Recessed lighting and wide plank white oak flooring can be found throughout.

Open to the great room, the kitchen is a masterpiece that has been completely redesigned to maximize space and functionality. Offering an abundance of custom white cabinetry, there is no shortage of storage, with floor to ceiling pantry space(s) and an additional storage closet / mudroom with space for stroller parking, Costco etc. Marble counter tops and backsplash keep the space light and bright, while providing ample prep spaces and breakfast bar with room for multiple barstools.

The en-suite primary bathroom, features a glass shower enclosure with spa-like shower accessories. A private hallway off the great room features walls of closets, and leads to the guest bedrooms, one of which has a full en-suite bath. Adjacent to the great room, the fourth bedroom is currently set up with a glass pocket door to serve as a flexible home office/playroom. The third full bath is easily accessible just off the hall entry, and also acts as the powder room.

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.
