A rare penthouse opportunity just moments from Central Park, Penthouse B is a charming one-bedroom, two-bath duplex with private outdoor space, a wood-burning fireplace, custom panel and cabinetry and the flexibility to create a second bedroom. Enter on the entertaining level, where a gracious living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace and exposed brick, creating a warm, townhouse-like atmosphere. An adjacent dining area and windowed kitchen complete the main level, along with a full bathroom. Upstairs, the oversized primary bedroom offers excellent proportions, a walk-in closet and a second full bath. Just beyond is the apartment's private terrace-a peaceful outdoor retreat in the heart of the Upper West Side. For buyers seeking additional flexibility, an alternate architectural plan illustrates the potential to create a second bedroom by incorporating the existing terrace into the interior living space. A further concept contemplates the creation of private outdoor space above, offering a compelling opportunity to reimagine the penthouse over time. All alterations are subject to applicable co-op, architectural and governmental approvals. Penthouse B combines many of the qualities that are increasingly difficult to find together: penthouse privacy, private outdoor space, a wood-burning fireplace, two full bathrooms, elevator access, exceptionally low monthly maintenance and the potential for a second bedroom-all on one of the Upper West Side's most desirable park blocks. Located just moments from Central Park, the apartment is surrounded by the neighborhood's restaurants, shops, cultural institutions and transportation, yet feels remarkably removed from the city below.
