Description

Speechless, that's how you will be when you walk into this amazing 3-bedroom Penthouse with a large outdoor terrace overlooking the Museum of Natural History and Central Park. Upon entering this masterpiece, you are immediately greeted with brand new floor to ceiling double compressed windows revealing jaw-dropping unobstructed and protected views. Experience loft-like ceiling heights in the great room with windows that flow through the whole front fa ade of the living space and wrap around the corner of the living room area. This turnkey residence has an open kitchen decked out with a Subzero refrigerator and wine cooler, Viking 6 burner range, Bosch dishwasher, vented hood and 2 sit-up counters. Off the corner living area is a third bedroom/den/office with a wood burning fireplace. Head up the dramatic staircase and as you arrive at the landing you once again have floor to ceiling glass windows with a door leading to a terrace. The terrace is special and it spans the full length of the residence with plenty of room for a living room set up and dining area to entertain your guests. The view is epic, on one of the most coveted corners in the upper west side facing the Hayden Planetarium and Central Park. Words don't do it justice, so you'll just have to come see it for yourself. Back inside, there is an en suite main bedroom with a large windowed closet and full views/access to the stunning terrace. Across the landing is another bedroom which is en suite as well, enjoying the same floor to ceiling windows with full tree-lined views and access to the terrace. No detail was overlooked in this thoughtfully designed home with a washer/dryer, integrated sound system, 5 zoned, app-based Mitsubishi A/C system, immense entryway storage, irrigation on the terrace and an app based video intercom system so you can grant access from wherever you are in the world. 100 W 81st is a pet-friendly, elevator co-op with extra private storage space for the unit.
