145 CENTRAL Park W #16C

THE SAN REMO Welcome to Apartment 16C in the South Tower of the incomparable San Remo. Built in 1930 by legendary architect, Emery Roth, the landmark San Remo is the jewel in the crown of pre-war Central Park West buildings. With four exposures and approximately seventy feet fronting Central Park, this perfectly situated, spectacular sun filled corner nine room apartment overlooking the row boat pond, is reputedly the very best apartment inherent to the San Remo. Perhaps it is the unsurpassed, unobstructed panoramic views of Central Park and the city, the magnificent proportions, lay-out and scale of the rooms, and the encompassing terraces which coalesce to make this apartment one of the premier residences in the city. From a private elevator vestibule, enter the grand gallery and be instantly captivated. The gallery opens onto and showcases the sumptuous 32' living room with its five windows on the Park as well as the double door entry of the corner handsome 25' library. Adjacent to the living room is the exquisite 23' dining room. Interesting and stylized architecture abound, including intricately carved ceilings, herringbone floors, detailed mouldings, cabinetry and archways. A private corridor leads to the bedroom wing with three immense south facing bedrooms, each with en-suite bath. For the purist, the baths are in pristine original condition retaining Emery Roth's vision and details. There is also a powder room and staff bath. The master bedroom is superb and includes a windowed dressing area. And as a bonus, there is a direct, discreet access to the kitchen area for any impromptu midnight snacks! The kitchen/staff area of the apartment is generously proportioned as well. In addition to a windowed butler's pantry, the enormous windowed eat-in kitchen can easily accommodate the most discerning chef. A staff dining hall is flanked by what was originally two staff rooms; one is now a laundry room and the other a refrigerated wine storage room. Clearly Apt. 16C is a one-of-kind gem that has the cachet, prestige and distinction that today's sophisticated buyer is seeking. Building amenities include resident manager, full service staff, state of the art gym, and private storage. This is truly an exceptional apartment combining elegance, luxury and glamour awaiting a new owner's imprimatur.
