Property Description for 257 Central Park West, 9-D
Welcome to the Orwell House where we are featuring Apartment 9D. This home is a three-bedroom/two-bathroom beauty that is move-in ready. There is nothing for you to do here. The floor plan is excellent providing both an open, grand feeling which is perfect for entertaining, or if privacy is preferred, there are several rooms to choose from. The natural light is excellent with a wall of windows facing West 86th Street.
Enter the apartment into a gracious foyer. Drop your keys, your mail and enjoy the really cool feeling this home boasts. When our photographer walked in to shoot the home, he was immediately enamored, not knowing which way to begin his tour. We like reactions like that, and this home does not disappoint.
To the left of the foyer (west) you will enter the living room, dining room and open, renovated, windowed kitchen complete with top-of-the-line finishes to include a Liebherr refrigerator, Viking stove/hood and plenty of granite counter-space. The second bedroom, marble bathroom, and washer/dryer are also located in this section of the home.
To the right of the foyer (east), is the third bedroom (owners use as a den), and the primary bedroom. This bedroom is a spacious suite with a private marble bathroom and work area complete with a view of Central Park. Enjoy this sanctuary as you work from home or enjoy a good book. It is so peaceful.
Apartment 9D is unique and complete with plenty of closet space, thru-wall AC, beautiful wood floors, and many well-considered built-ins which add to the charm of this home.
The Orwell House was built in 1906 nearly 100 years ago. The building is chock full of modern amenities that include a gorgeous lobby, 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, bike room, package room, central laundry and storage. The latest and greatest amenity addition is a new, landscaped roof deck soon to be available to shareholders. The gym has all the modern equipment one could want. There is a parking garage, however, there are 11 spots and a long waitlist.
This building is pied-a-terre friendly, and pets are welcome. 75% financing is permitted. Transportation is right outside your door with the B/C subway lines and the M86 and M10 buses.
First showing is Tuesday, September 3rd. All showings by appointment.

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.
