Description

EXTRAORDINARY OPPORTUNITY! Fabulous 11 room dream home in coveted Pre-war co-op on Central Park West with direct Park views from three rooms. Never before has this combination been offered at 55 Central Park West. Sprawling combination of approx. 3,800 sf with 5 Bedrooms, 5 Baths, Living Room, Formal Dining Room, Library, and Pantry, with Kitchen and informal Dining Area opening to spacious Playroom/Media Room.

The apartment has new windows and thru-wall air-conditioning. Prewar details include beamed ceilings, dropped living room, herringbone hardwood floors, and 9' ceilings. There is a board-approved architect's plan available to expand the kitchen and add a full bath. Constructed in 1929, 55 Central Park West was designed by renowned architects Schwartz and Gross and is considered one of the pivotal structures of the CPW Historic District embodying the Art Deco Style.

Both the interior and exterior have unique architectural features that distinguish it from its peers. This full-service co-op has a landscaped roof terrace, bicycle room, playroom, storage bins, and laundry room. It is pet friendly and allows pied-a-terres. Its superb location on Central Park West and the corner of West 66th Street is convenient to all transportation hubs and a block from Lincoln Center and the many fine restaurants and shops of the Upper West Side.
