Description
A Penthouse Retreat Above the Upper West Side Atop the iconic Astor Court sits this enchanting penthouse residence, distinguished by two skylights, an open living and dining area, and exceptional natural light throughout. The airy living and dining space is beautifully proportioned and bathed in sunlight from a generously scaled skylight (approximately 18'11"), creating a wonderful sense of volume and openness. A second skylight in the foyer (approximately 18'4") further enhances the home’s light and flow, welcoming you with brightness upon entry. Ceiling heights reach approximately 8'10", contributing to the home’s airy, penthouse feel. The windowed kitchen is thoughtfully designed with an eat-in component, offering comfort, functionality, and flexibility for everyday living or intimate entertaining. The bedroom is quietly positioned and well scaled, complemented by generous closet space, including additional storage located above the walk-in closet (approximately 4'5" x 6'5"), and a well-appointed bathroom. The layout is efficient yet gracious, offering a serene retreat above the city. Designed by renowned architect Charles A. Platt for Vincent Astor, Astor Court is a premier Manhattan landmark celebrated for its architectural pedigree and beautifully landscaped central courtyard garden. The impeccably managed, full-service building features a full-time door staff, landscaped roof deck, fitness room, children’s play space, central laundry, bike storage, garage, and an on-site resident manager. Perfectly situated near the 1/2/3 subway lines, Riverside Park, Central Park, tennis courts, top-tier fitness studios, and the Upper West Side’s most beloved shopping and dining, this is a special address to call home. Additional Details: 2% flip tax paid by buyer. Pets and pied-à-terre purchases welcome. Central air conditioning and washer/dryer installation permitted with Board approval.
