Description

WELCOME TO A TRUE MASTERPIECE OF ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN, SPACE, CENTRAL PARK VIEWS, AND A REDUCED PRICE!

As you enter 5S, you will be drawn to the breathtaking views of the Jacqueline Onassis Reservoir in Central Park, framed by beautiful oversized French windows! With a 55 foot expanse of rooms overlooking the park, the double sized living room, den and bedroom are permeated with light and amazing views through-out all seasons. The grandeur of (approximately) 3,750 square feet, detailed with historic beauty, is a rare find!

Apartment 5S is unique from other "S" lines in the building due to having acquired an extra 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and an additional closet from a neighboring apartment.

This grand scaled versatile and expansive 12 into 9 room features a (ball-room sized) dining room or den and a minimum of 5-bedrooms & 4-bathrooms. The flexibility of the layout makes it easy to adapt the rooms to your personal desires. Dramatic hallways and 10.5 ceilings, allow for the best in entertaining and separation of space plus privacy when desired.

Truly a turn-of-the century gem, pre-war details include: impeccably skim-coated walls, restored 7FT mahogany doors, two sets of timeless French doors plus restored detailed door frames & moldings plus two decorative fireplace mantels. All this and the comfort of modern updates. The eat-in kitchen is furnished with a suite of high-end stainless steel appliances from Sub-Zero, Viking, Breville, & Bosch centered around a stunning Italian tile floor, accented by marble countertops and pristine white cabinets. Two of the main bathrooms have recently been updated with designer quality finishes.

Making 5S your home means Central Park will be your own front yard. This speaks to those who want and cherish a special lifestyle. Staying healthy will be fun! Walk the reservoir or run a marathon!

Baseball, handball or tennis anyone? Partake in the tranquility and beauty of nature year round. Be Happy! Built by Robert T. Lyons in 1906, the luxurious St. Urban is one of the Upper West Side’s most coveted and iconic cooperative apartment buildings.
