Description

Rare opportunity combine two apartments for a sprawling sixty feet of prime Central Park views at the Bolivar. Currently 8D has two park-facing rooms, plus four beds & four baths. 8C has three large rooms facing the park, including two beds with two baths.

8BCD can be combined into a spectacular five bed, six-bath apartment with five sets of picture windows facing the park. The alternate floor plan is only an example of many options, and includes a large open dining and great room, which overlooks the verdant beauty of the park. The existing open gourmet kitchen in 8D has ample counter space, excellent storage, a Gaggenau induction cooktop and separate ovens, a vented hood, a Miele refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and Sub Zero wine refrigerator with two refrigerated drawers.

The current living space could be opened (with DOB approval) to 8BC to create a massive great room. A separate, proposed hallway opens to the sitting room of the oversized primary suite on the park with three walk in closets. Four well-proportioned existing bedrooms face the courtyard, which receive western light and are very quiet.

In addition to a 24-hour door attendant, concierge service, attended lobby, and live-in building manager, the building also has one of the most spectacular roof terraces in the city (almost 10,000 square feet) with jaw-dropping views, a former ballroom now used as a community room, laundry room, private storage, and bicycle storage, and refrigerated storage for food deliveries. Up to 75% financing is allowed. This is a pet-friendly cooperative. Pied-a-terres welcome at the discretion of the board.

Very low maintenance. Please note that the proposed floor plan is only a suggestion, the combination would require board approval and filing with the Department of Buildings.
