Property Description for 251 Central Park West, 2-A

NEW TO MARKET! A sprawling, sunny and beautifully renovated pre-war 4-bedroom 4-bathroom home with soaring ceilings over 10ft high and grand proportions, all directly overlooking Central Park. Residence 2A at 251 Central Park West is a glorious and seamless union of classic pre-war charm and modern luxuries with all new finishes, a full-sized washer and a dryer that vents to the exterior as well as ductless central air conditioning throughout -- all in a fabulous, coveted doorman building on Central Park West.

Enter through the private elevator landing and into a gracious gallery flanked by an enormous living room stretching almost 30ft with views pouring directly over Central Park through massive picture windows. The living room is adorned with a charming decorative fireplace as well as gorgeous inlaid wood floors which run throughout the entire residence, complementing handsome wooden oversized door and window frames. Adjacent to the living room is a large formal dining room with an open exposure West, peering out over lush garden foliage beneath blue sky.

Perfectly situated off of the dining room, there is a large windowed kitchen with beautiful quartz countertops, white subway tile backsplash and extensive custom cabinetry and pantry storage. There are two sink basins and the appliance suite is all stainless steel with two separate dishwashers, a French-door style refrigerator with ice maker and double freezer drawer as well as a mounted microwave. Just beyond the kitchen, there is a dedicated laundry closet with a full-sized washer and a dryer that vents to the exterior.

The primary suite has its own private wing of the apartment and offers direct views of Central Park as well as an en-suite renovated windowed bathroom with oversized vanity and stall shower. There are 3 sizable closets. The remaining 3 bedrooms are serenely located in their own dedicated wing to the West. There is one king-sized bedroom suite with two closets and an en-suite renovated windowed bathroom with a tub/shower. The other two bedrooms are serviced by 2 additional renovated full bathrooms with stall showers just off of the bedroom corridor, also perfectly situated for guests.

251 Central Park West, also known as Rossleigh Court, is a gorgeous limestone and red brick facade building built by Mulliken & Moeller in 1905 in the "French Flat" model of the Beaux-Arts style. It affords its residents a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager and on-site management as well as a common laundry facility and bicycle storage. Marvelously located on the corner of Central Park West and West 85th Street, residents of Rossleigh Court enjoy immediate access to the A, C, and B trains at West 86th Street, close proximity to the 1 train on Broadway, as well as unparalleled access to Central Park and all of the fabulous culture, shopping and dining of the Upper West Side. Cats are welcome, as are dogs subject to building approval.

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.
