Upon entering the home, a spacious foyer draws you in, flowing directly into the sprawling open-concept living and dining area. A generously sized coat closet and walk-in closet provide homeowners with ample storage space. The fully equipped and functional windowed kitchen is nestled in the corner of the apartment, while the furnished living room is perfect for entertaining in style, where distinct zones for dining, relaxing, and work cater to every whim.

Large picture windows allow sunlight to shine off the herringbone floors. The well-appointed bedroom features an ensuite bathroom as well as a closet. Other aspects of this home include central air, baseboard molding, and ceiling beams.

Built in 1930 and a staple of the art deco period, the Essex House is a true New York gem.

Additionally, all major utilities are included in the common charges. Access to amenities include a rejuvenating spa and health club, optional housekeeping and valet services, full-time doorman, bellman, dedicated concierge services, and of course, Central Park in close proximity.
