...A RARE MID-CENTURY PENTHOUSE WITH ICONIC CENTRAL PARK VISTAS

Discover an architectural masterpiece where timeless mid-century design meets one of Manhattan's most extraordinary settings. This exceptional circa-1963 duplex penthouse offers an unrivaled blend of sophisticated interiors, breathtaking panoramic views of Central Park, and expansive private outdoor living—creating an experience that is truly beyond compare.

Perfectly positioned just off Fifth Avenue, neighboring the legendary Plaza Hotel, this remarkable residence occupies the 22nd and 23rd floors of the prestigious 24 Central Park South. Encompassing approximately 1,813 square feet of refined interior living space and an extraordinary 823-square-foot wraparound terrace, this is a rare opportunity to own one of the most captivating homes on Central Park South.

A private elevator opens directly into an elegant foyer, unveiling a dramatic great room with soaring 9'6" ceilings, exquisite marble flooring, and oversized windows that frame uninterrupted views of Central Park like a living masterpiece. Bathed in natural light, the expansive entertaining space seamlessly blends sophistication with comfort.

The thoughtfully designed eat-in kitchen features a hooded gas range, stainless steel appliances, dishwasher, and a convenient service entrance. A sun-filled dining alcove beneath a striking glass ceiling showcases beautiful park and city views, while the adjacent south-facing sunroom offers exceptional versatility as a lounge, formal dining room, guest retreat, or inspiring home office.

Also on the main level is a spacious bedroom suite with direct access to a private 171-square-foot section of the wraparound terrace, creating a peaceful outdoor sanctuary. An elegant marble en-suite bath and a stylish powder room complete this level.

Ascending to the upper floor is one of the home's most breathtaking architectural features—a spectacular two-story glass-enclosed circular staircase overlooking Central Park. Flooded with natural light, this sculptural centerpiece creates an unforgettable transition to the private quarters above.

The upper landing offers sweeping park views and generous walk-in closets before leading through custom curved doors into the luxurious primary suite. Enjoy tranquil southern exposures, abundant sunlight, and a spa-inspired marble en-suite bath complete with a deep soaking tub, creating a serene retreat high above the city.

Designed by Philip Birnbaum & Associates and completed in 1963, 24 Central Park South is an intimate white-glove cooperative with just 37 residences. Residents enjoy a 24-hour doorman and concierge, a beautifully renovated lobby, a state-of-the-art fitness center with 24-hour access, laundry facilities, and premium concierge services including package handling, laundry pickup and delivery, and handyman assistance. Washer and dryer installations are permitted.

Living at 24 Central Park South places the very best of New York City at your doorstep. World-renowned Fifth Avenue shopping, the beauty of Central Park, and celebrated cultural destinations—including MoMA, Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Broadway's Theater District, and many of Manhattan's finest restaurants—are all just moments away.

The cooperative is pied-à-terre friendly and permits trust purchases as well as financing up to 50%. Pets are considered with board approval, and subletting is permitted for up to four years out of every ten after two years of ownership.

This is more than a penthouse—it is a rare opportunity to own an architectural masterpiece with extraordinary outdoor space and unrivaled Central Park views in one of Manhattan's most coveted addresses.
