NEW DEVELOPMENT QUALITY. PREWAR SOUL. NEVER LIVED IN!

Introducing Residence 312 at The Olcott - a gut-renovated two-bedroom, two-and-a-half bath home in one of the Upper West Side's most distinguished prewar condominiums. Completed to an uncompromising finish and never occupied, this is the apartment discerning buyers spend years waiting for: the soul and scale of a classic Manhattan prewar, delivered with the precision and material quality of the city's finest new development.

From the moment you enter the gracious 20-foot foyer, the level of craft is unmistakable. Wide-plank herringbone oak floors run throughout. Custom picture-frame millwork lines the hallways, lit by antique brass wall sconces. Every door, every hinge, every hardware pull has been considered.

The heart of the home is a spectacular open chef's kitchen measuring nearly 13 by 12 feet - anchored by a Viking professional range, a custom brass-trimmed statement hood, panel-ready refrigerator concealed behind floor-to-ceiling white cabinetry, and a waterfall-edge quartz island with a matte black gooseneck faucet. Brass pendant lighting, under-cabinet illumination, and a discreet wine refrigerator complete a kitchen that is as functional as it is visually arresting. The adjoining living and dining room stretches over 16 feet and flows seamlessly - ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

Each bathroom is its own statement. The primary bath features a double vanity with navy lacquer cabinetry, brushed gold fixtures, and a frameless glass shower clad in shimmering ombre mosaic tile. The second full bath offers marble-toned patterned floor tile, a soaking tub, and a chic dark vanity with mixed metal hardware. The powder room - perhaps the most playful of all - is dressed in a custom circular mosaic marble floor, paneled wainscoting, a wall-mounted toilet, and polished nickel fittings.
The primary bedroom measures 15 by 11'6" and includes a proper walk-in closet, plus additional storage. The second bedroom is nearly 15 by 9'2" with its own full bath and closet. In-unit washer/dryer completes the picture.

Charming treetop views over West 73rd Street offer a quiet, leafy backdrop - a rare and coveted calm in the middle of the Upper West Side.
The Olcott is a rare prewar condominium, originally built in 1924 and converted to condominiums in 2005. The magnificently restored lobby features marble columns and ornate brass elevators with interiors of mahogany, marble, mother-of-pearl, and brass - a grand yet welcoming space that perfectly balances old-world charm with modern full-service living.

The building is staffed with a full-time doorman, 24-hour concierge, and live-in superintendent, ensuring white-glove service around the clock. A dedicated package room, bike room, and wheelchair-accessible entry complete the essential conveniences.

Residents enjoy an exceptional suite of amenities including a fitness center, children's playroom, media room, and laundry on every floor.
Ideally situated less than one block from Central Park, residents enjoy instant access to one of the world's greatest urban green spaces - including the iconic Strawberry Fields. World-class dining, shopping, and cultural institutions, including Lincoln Center, are all within easy reach. Seamless transportation is equally at hand, with the B and C trains at 72nd Street and Central Park West, and the 1, 2, and 3 trains also just moments away.
