Overview of Southmoor House at 230 Central Park South

Southmoor House at 230 Central Park South is a distinguished 17-story pre-war building designed by Jacob M. Felsen in 1937, featuring a limestone base with an elegant two story entrance surround and Art Deco details. The building underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2004 by Parkview Developers, led by principals Ian Reisner and Mati Weiderpass, who funded the restoration by selling air rights. The renovation included a new Art Deco façade, modern elevators, updated mechanicals, and the addition of a fitness center.

Operating as a condop with condo-like flexibility, Southmoor House requires no board approval or financial disclosures, and welcomes pied-à-terres, subleases, LLCs, foreign buyers, and trusts. The building houses 95 apartments with notably low maintenance fees that include utilities and taxes. 

Apartments typically feature direct Central Park views through large picture windows, with many units offering 30+ linear feet of park frontage. Some common luxury finishes include high end European appliances (Bosch, Liebherr, Sub-Zero), custom cabinetry, marble bathrooms, hardwood floors, and decorative fireplaces. Several units feature private balconies, in-unit washer/dryers, and extensive custom storage solutions. The building's larger apartments include duplexes and sprawling layouts with multiple bedrooms and entertaining spaces.

Positioned directly across from Central Park and steps from Columbus Circle and the Time Warner Center, Southmoor House offers residents immediate access to Whole Foods, world class dining, and cultural attractions like Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center. The building provides full service amenities including a 24 hour doorman, concierge, live-in manager, fitness center, and is pet friendly, making it an ideal choice for both primary residences and investment properties.
