360 Central Park W #6-E

Natural materials, graceful historicity, and playful, practical modern touches abound at 360 Central Park West and unit 6E is the cream of a remarkable crop. It's easy to see why this was the model unit in the initial condo offering, with its tremendous character and charm. Entering through the gracious foyer and opening into the the light-bathed great room, this vibrant home is illuminated by a wall-length panel of north-facing windows, featuring a remarkable view of the First Church of Christ, Scientist (whose historic frame will soon house the new Children's Museum of Manhattan) and a verdant slice of Central Park. Patterns of all-day light move through the northeast-facing living wing and across the sun-soaked south-facing bedrooms. An open flow and seamless design between dining, living, and kitchen create a true heart-of-home feeling, while the rich afternoon sun and quintessential city views in the three bedrooms bring vibrancy alongside privacy. Extraordinary finishes included beamed ceilings, 5" solid oak herringbone floors, sound-proof Pella windows, Calacatta Caldia counters and backsplashes; Miele appliances (including a stack washer-dryer in an ample laundry closet); Bertazzoni range with pot-filler and bronzed range hood; and bathrooms with floor-to-ceiling Bianco Namibia slab walls and Waterworks fixtures. The present owners have upgraded closet systems, added recessed and chandelier lighting, and implemented window treatments, all of which convey with sale. The primary suite is an oasis; the secondary bedrooms, a king and queen, are connected by a sophisticated Jack & Jill bath, and are cheerful, gracious rooms that can serve dual functions as bedrooms or home offices. All offer ample storage (including two walk in closets), augmenting the plethora of pantry and foyer closets. 360 Central Park West embodies the best of Upper West Side living. Unusually low taxes and common charges that have not been raised since the initial offering add unique value to this triple mint full-service parkside condominium, which also offers a pristine and spacious lobby, a full time doorman, gym, children's playroom, bike storage, and deeded private storage which conveys with the apartment. Located on the corner of 96th and Central Park West, with the 96th Street transverse and the B/C trains below, the whole of the UWS and UES are at your doorstep, with convenient transportation and lush daily life.
