Sun-filled and gracious, this corner two-bedroom, two-bathroom home on the sixth floor offers beautiful treelined block views with oblique vistas of Central Park from a prime Central Park West address. Enjoying three exposures to the north, west and south, the apartment is filled with natural light throughout the day. Generous scale, high ceilings, oversized windows and an elegant prewar layout are complemented by a wonderful collection of original architectural details, creating a sophisticated and inviting home in one of Central Park West's distinguished white-glove buildings. The formal expanse is particularly impressive, positioned on a corner with two exposures and abundant natural light. Generously proportioned, there is ample room for comfortable seating as well as a formal dining area, making this an ideal space for both gracious entertaining and everyday living.
