257 Central Park West, 11-AB

This is the one you've been waiting for! Truly triple-mint four (potential five) bedroom, three bath residence with some of the most jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring views of Central Park displayed in full glory over almost seventy feet of pure Park frontage! This spacious yet inviting true home is in immaculate condition, with a flexible layouty and natural flow. Beginning with the large entry foyer, you are treated to a massive great room that could serve as both the dining room and spacious living room (although there is a separate dining room located just off the kitchen as well). The king-sized primary bedroom suite, contained in its own wing, is blessed with stunning Central Park and Reservoir vistas, in addition to a perfect sitting room with numerous custom walk-in closets and an en suite spa bath, complete with a huge shower, separate jacuzzi soaking tub, and double sinks. The windowed chef's kitchen features a commercial-grade six-burner Viking stove, Subzero double refrigerator and all other best-in-class appliances, a large pantry, full laundry room, expansive Carrera marble countertop and storage space. The library could also be used as another bedroom, with its second en suite bath, and then two additional bedrooms and third bathroom are tucked away from the entertaining spaces down a discreet private hallway.

Other hallmarks of ths one-of-a-kind seamlessly combined apartment include an abundance of closets with custom built ins throughout, beautiful hardwood floors, distinctive chandeliers that all convey, and lowluster Venetian plaster on many of the walls. Bathed in light for most of the day courtesy of the four exposures, the place is also pin-drop quiet, providing a peaceful haven from the hustle and bustle outside. And of course the breathtaking Park views are just as glorious by night, ringed by the lights of the magnificent City skyline.

The Orwell House, built in 1906, boasts an elegant but understated lobby, overseen by full-time doormen, and has a helpful live-in super, bike room, package room, garage (with a waitlist), and common laundry room. A brand new gym will be finished and ready for use by the end of the year, and a newly created landscaped roof deck should be completed in time for Spring 2024! The incredible neighborhood includes Central Park and its Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir just across the street, along with all its other delights like the Great Lawn and Strawberry Field. All the best grocery stores that the Upper West Side is famous for are just a few blocks away, as are incredible restaurants and boutiques, the B/C and 1 subway lines, and the M86 and M10 buses. This lovely boutique Pre-war co-op is pet-friendly, and the common-sense board allows pied-a-terre and up to 75% financing.
