Property Description for 205 West 57th Street, 3-DB

Presenting a grand two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath residence in one of Manhattan's most prestigious landmark buildings. The Osborne, registered as a New York City landmark, has been among the city's most coveted addresses since 1885. Residents are welcomed daily by an opulent lobby that beautifully preserves its 19th-century splendor. Ideally situated just steps from Central Park, diagonally across from Carnegie Hall, and moments from Columbus Circle, the building offers unparalleled access to more than a dozen subway lines.

This dramatic duplex apartment features a south-facing living room with soaring 12+ foot ceilings, original picture moldings, elegant bay windows, and open views of Carnegie Hall and neighboring Billionaires' Row residences. A magnificent crystal chandelier-perfectly scaled to the room-sets the tone for gracious entertaining. Throughout the home are the original, hand-nailed Versailles parquet floors, a rare and exquisite detail.

A grand circular foyer and expansive living room create an impressive setting for entertaining, while an original 1885 staircase leads to the private upper level. This floor houses two bedrooms, a kitchen with dining area, and a full bathroom appointed with a large Japanese soaking tub and a separate shower. For added convenience, a fully renovated half bath is located on the main level for guests.

The Osborne offers full-service living with a resident manager, a staff of twelve full-time employees, and a 24-hour doorman. Building amenities include a common laundry room (with in-unit washer/dryers permitted), basement storage, a newly renovated fitness center, and a spectacular roof with views of Carnegie Hall, Central Park, and the Times Square New Year's Eve ball drop. Dogs and pied-à-terres are permitted,

50% financing is allowed, and a 3% transfer tax is paid by the buyer. An extraordinary opportunity to live on Billionaires' Row in one of New York City's most iconic buildings.

Midtown West | Manhattan

Quick Profile

People, yellow cabs, bright lights, big crowds, 24-hour eateries and just about every type of store imaginable. it’s a frenetic buzz that only a few places on the globe can offer. And that’s just one part of it. Midtown West is the birthplace of hustle and bustle and it’s bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 8th Avenue to the west, and 5th Avenue to the east. 

Midtown West is not as residential as other neighborhoods in Manhattan. The bustling part of Midtown West is 42nd Street between Times Square and 8th Avenues where the retail and office space, theatres, and attractions are. No matter what time of day it is, you'll always find activity there. 

Residential buildings lay near the western end of Midtown West beginning around 8th Avenue. 

Location, location, location. Of all the neighborhoods and enclaves of Manhattan, Midtown West is perhaps the most commutable place to live, visit, or work. It contains one of the highest concentrations of subway lines in the Big Apple. A, C, E, N, Q, R, 1, 2, 3, and the 7 train. The transit system feeds the streets with commuters from everywhere. The Port Authority Bus Terminal and nearby Penn Station adds to the number of people that flood Midtown on any given day. 

It’s one of the easiest places in all of Manhattan to navigate because it’s a true grid. Uptown, street numbers go up. Downtown, street numbers go down. It’s the same concept from east to west. You really can’t get lost in Midtown West.
