Description

One-of-a-Kind Sky Mansion with 65-ft frontage Directly on Central Park.

A gut-renovated co-op with unobstructed Central Park views, this one-of-a-kind 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home is a paragon of Upper West Side luxury. Features of the apartment include 65 feet of prime park-facing exposure, gorgeous hardwood floors with contrasting inlays, soaring coffered ceilings, crown molding, huge windows with solar blackout shades, charming built-ins, a high-tech home automation system, and an in-home laundry room with a folding station, storage, and a side-by-side Whirlpool washer/dryer.

Beyond an incredible foyer with marble inlay flooring, Venetian plaster walls, and a custom powder room, the home flows into an expansive living and dining room that hovers over the treetops of Central Park. The space is equipped with a built-in entertainment center and a custom wet bar with a Sub-Zero drink cooler, an icemaker, chic stone countertops, and an elegant copper sink.

An open kitchen and family room sit on the opposite side of the home. The kitchen is equipped with a massive eat-in island, sleek countertops, a marble backsplash with a custom tile inlay over the stove, custom cabinets, a pantry, a custom farmhouse sink, and a suite of high-end stainless steel appliances from Miele, Sub-Zero, and Fisher & Paykel.

The master bedroom overlooks the park and boasts custom built-ins, a pair of walk-in closets, an additional linen closet, and a sublime en-suite bathroom with marble floors, double sinks, and a glass-enclosed walk-in rain shower.

The second bedroom possesses a walk-in closet, park views, and a full en-suite bathroom, while the third bedroom has western exposure, a pair of closets, and its own en-suite. The fourth bedroom has a built-in workstation, a Murphy bed, and easy access to the remaining full bathroom.

The Bolivar is an acclaimed co-op located on the Upper West Side.

The building has a 24-hour doorman, concierge service, a live-in super, bicycle storage, and an amazing rooftop deck with lounge furniture and custom planters. It is across the street from Central Park and a few blocks away from the American Museum of Natural History, and it is just steps from all the restaurants, bars, cafes, and shops that line Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues. Pets and pieds-a-terre are welcome.
