Description
56 feet of direct Central Park frontage with a spectacular wraparound terrace. A full-floor penthouse with panoramic views in every direction. Perched atop one of Central Park West's most coveted condominium residences, Penthouse 22 at 279 Central Park West is a truly rare offering, commanding breathtaking vistas over Central Park, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, and the Manhattan skyline from every room. A private keyed elevator opens directly into an elegant gallery-style entrance hall, creating a dramatic arrival and the perfect setting for displaying a significant art collection. Beyond, expansive entertaining spaces include a spectacular corner living room, formal dining room, and library, all surrounded by floor-to-ceiling tilt-and-turn windows that frame extraordinary views and flood the residence with natural light throughout the day. A charming wraparound terrace seamlessly extends the living space outdoors, offering a front-row seat to the changing seasons of Central Park, breathtaking sunsets, and the ever-evolving New York City skyline. Currently configured as a spacious two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence, the home offers exceptional flexibility and presents a rare opportunity for customization. With its existing library and generous proportions throughout, Penthouse 22 can be transformed into a true three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence while preserving its grand entertaining spaces and extraordinary light. Whether enjoyed in its current layout or reimagined to suit modern living, the residence offers the scale and potential to create a truly bespoke Central Park trophy home. Designed by renowned architect Costas Kondylis, 279 Central Park West is one of the few full-service condominiums along this prestigious stretch of Central Park. Residents enjoy a 24-hour doorman, fitness center, and indoor and outdoor children's playrooms, all within an intimate boutique condominium setting. Rarely does a residence offer this combination of scale, privacy, outdoor space, and irreplaceable views. With over 50 feet of direct frontage overlooking Central Park and panoramic vistas stretching across New York City, Penthouse 22 represents a truly exceptional opportunity atop Central Park West.
