151 CENTRAL Park W #10W

Constructed in 1906, the Kenilworth is peerless on Central Park West for impeccable service and the character of its apartments. Named for a 12th C. English castle owned by the Queens favorite, Robert Dudley, who laid on 19 days of festivities for Elizabeth I's visit in 1575, the Kenilworth and this residence in particular offer grand proportions, lofty scale, tantalizing architectural detail and the best location on CPW. Impeccably restored and lit by all day sun, Apartment 10W is favored by open City and Park panoramas in 3 directions. This 3 BR dwelling features an especially grand living room adjacent to a stately formal dining room, both of which have commanding views of the historic Upper Westside. Serving the splendid entertaining area is a large, chefs eat-in kitchen fitted with beautiful cabinetry, cutting-edge appliances (Wolf, SubZero et al), a superb banquette and spacious staff quarters with bath that act as a 4th BR. The magnificent master suite, including its generous boudoir bath, is extra-large and surrounded by fine Central Park and skyline vistas. There are two additional bedrooms and baths. Ceilings soar; windows and doors are encased by exquisite period framing; space abounds. On a thoroughfare celebrated for its neo-Renaissance facades and Beaux Arts towers, Kenilworth is the ideal name for a structure whose qualities, personified most effectively by Apartment 10W, will regale the most inveterate seeker of residential perfection on Central Park West.
