Description

Opportunity knocks! This dramatic Central Park West 12-into-9 room home with beautiful park views can be yours for an extraordinary value!

As you enter this palatial apartment from a private elevator landing servicing only two apartments, you will be transported back to an era when grandeur and elegance were the defining features of the perfect home. Approximately 3,750 SF of sprawling space and grand scaled rooms is a city dwellers dream come true!

Apartment #5S is one of only two S lines that acquired two additional bedrooms and a bathroom to the original layout. Enjoy lavish entertaining with as many guests as you wish while the separate bedroom wings provide privacy and sanctuary when needed. The flexible layout can easily adapt to one’s own personal desires, which could include as many as six bedrooms.

This true turn-of-the century treasure provides all the conveniences of modern living with the addition of a classically designed chef’s eat-in-kitchen.

The kitchen is fully equipped with a six burner Viking range, a 48’’ Sub-Zero refrigerator-freezer, Bosch dishwasher and washer dryer. The classic design features beautiful white cabinets and marble counters.

Restored prewar details throughout include 7 FT mahogany doors, oversized windows, two decorative fireplace mantels, charming French doors, towering door frames and classic moldings. The walls have been meticulously skim coated and feature lovely archways and soaring 10.5 FT coved ceilings.

The St. Urban, designed by Robert T. Lyons in 1906, is distinguished for the unique Beaux-Art style and architectural features.

A full service building with only 52 residences offers an intimate and private environment. The shareholders have taken serious pride in caring for their building, which is maintained in impeccable condition. The Co-op financials are also excellent.

A Resident Manager, 24-hour door-men plus two porters, assures a well-run building and provides the utmost in service and security for the residents. Amenities include a state of the art gym, a play area, central laundry, and bike room.
