285 Central Park West, Unit 7S
Description
From the semi-private landing, the gracious 23 foot gallery opens onto the palatial 46 foot double living room with three oversized windows, each offering a distinctive yet equally impressive view of the Park, the Reservoir and the majestic Upper East Side and Central Park West skylines. Spectacular both by day and night ,the apartment is perfect for large scale entertaining, intimate dinner parties or quiet enjoyment. There is a handsome decorative fireplace, custom built-ins and ample wall space to display one's art collection. Beautiful herringbone floors, elevated door frames and moldings throughout.
One of the bedroom suites faces Central Park and features an enormous walk-in closet and dressing area, complete with a huge windowed bathroom reminiscent of a five star hotel. The private wing of the residence is accessed by a large hallway and has three additional bedrooms, one currently configured as an inviting home office, perfect for working from home. The enormous Primary Bedroom Suite is nothing short of sensational, offering a sitting/TV room, a spacious bedroom with wonderful western light from the oversized window, custom walk-in closets, a dressing area and a fabulous bathroom. All the bathrooms are large and feature stunning white statuary marble, Waterworks fixtures and pewter limestone. There is also a sizable laundry area. The apartment can easily be reconfigured as a five bedroom apartment.
The oversized windowed chef's eat in kitchen is a showstopper and was brilliantly designed so that one can take in the views of the Park while preparing meals on the large marble island or eating at the table. With white marble countertops and top of the line stainless steel appliances (Wolf range, Sub Zero fridge, Miele dishwasher), two sinks, a walk-through pantry and a large climate-controlled custom walk-in wine fridge, both cooking and entertaining are a delight!
