Description

Welcome to 271 Central Park West, Apartment 4W

Built as a Classic 8 in 1912, this sunlit 4-bedroom apartment, featuring rich architectural elements of a bygone era, is in one of the most sought-after cooperatives along Central Park West.

The large apartment has an excellent house-like layout with handsome pre-First World War details including classic moldings and wainscoting, unique bronze door hardware, unusually high 10'8" ceilings, extra-large windows, generous closets and storage space. The grand-scale ambiance reflects the luxury and elegance of its era. From a semi-private elevator landing, the residence is entered through a beautiful foyer, which invites one into the living / dining room. Ideal for entertaining, the originally separate living and dining rooms have been combined as one expansive space with grand coffered ceilings. The great room, the library and the corner primary bedroom all have radiant southern exposures and oblique views of Central Park.

The separate sleeping quarters feature three split bedrooms. The primary bedroom with its own bathroom has south and west exposures. Two additional oversized bedrooms offer quiet privacy off a shared windowed bath. The fourth bedroom, formerly a staff room, features a desirable en-suite bathroom and alternatively could be a perfect media room, home-gym or office.

The pet-friendly building offers maximum security with a 24-hour elevator-operator / doorman and a live-in resident manager. A state of the art gym, private storage, a dog wash, and a bike room have been recently added.

Designed by architects Schwartz and Gross in a Neo-Renaissance style, 271 Central Park West is at once sophisticated and intimate with only two residences per elevator landing. Over the past century, its location, private atmosphere and eclectic character have attracted a wide range of professionals, from business to the performing and creative arts.
