55 Central Park W #13E, New York, NY 10023

CENTRAL PARK VIEWS FROM EVERY VANTAGE POINT. TURN-KEY UPPER WEST SIDE CLASSIC PRE-WAR HOME. PERFECTLY RENOVATED WITH A MODERN AESTHETIC. Stunningly reimagined to suit a modern aesthetic and lifestyle, this triple-mint pre-war property is turn-key and ready to be your new home. Gutted to the studs, the reconfiguration and redesign of the original Classic 6 layout into a sophisticated loft-style space that showcases park vistas from every spot in the apartment exceeds expectations. Upon entering the open and expansive gallery, you are welcomed with direct Central Park views that will take your breath away. Gorgeous herringbone floors pull you into the impressively scaled step-down living room. With its 25' by 14'7" proportions and 9'4'' high ceilings, this grand room is equally suitable for formal use or casual gatherings. Similar views abound in the den, originally the second bedroom. Opened to create a lofty expanse and allow for the stunning backdrop of Central Park to be enjoyed from any vantage point in the apartment, it can easily be re-enclosed into a private bedroom again. Beautiful custom cabinetry houses a home office and exceptional storage. The original gallery, dining room and kitchen walls were also opened and seamlessly combined to create a space ideal for entertaining, yet comfortable and intimate enough for everyday living. In concert with the 28 feet of Central Park frontage provided by the living room and den, the enhanced flow of this apartment is nothing short of spectacular. On one end, the custom banquette and chandelier were placed to easily accommodate dining for 8-10, although there is room for a much larger arrangement. At the other end is a kitchen more befitting of a suburban house than NYC apartment. Brilliantly designed, the kitchen has been expertly outfitted to any chef's delight with sprawling Eurostone countertops, Waterworks tile backsplash, and custom cabinetry. The top-of-the-line suite of Thermador appliances include a Professional stove with venting hood, refrigerator, and dishwasher, as well as an undercounter Sharp microwave. Anchoring the space is an expansive center island with bar stool seating. Designed with an over-size sink, Waterworks faucet, hot water and filtration system, DW, cabinet storage, hidden trash container, and electrical outlets, it is as practical as it is beautiful. The ultra-spacious primary bedroom is the epitome of luxury with its gorgeous sunrise views of the park through a wall of east-facing windows. This bespoke private suite is replete with a separate dressing area and marble-topped vanity, four sets of custom-designed closets, and ensuite windowed bath with cabinets for bath linens and supplies. Both the primary and secondary bathrooms (also windowed) feature walk-in showers outfitted with Waterworks glass doors, Waterworks tumbled marble tile, Toto toilets, Kohler pedestal sinks, chrome fixtures, radiant-heated flooring, and pocket doors. What was formerly the staff quarters has been converted into a combination laundry and utility room. Within this windowed space you'll find a full-size washer and dryer (with exterior venting), large utility sink, two walls of closets, and a designated electronics closet housing the Crescendo controls for the audio/lighting/cooling systems. 55 Central Park West - sometimes referred to as the "Ghostbusters" building - is an iconic Art Deco pre-war gem designed by the renowned architects Schwartz & Gross.
