Description
A multi-year renovation, the result of a...A new era arrives: this large, elegant, fully renovated home is perfectly positioned in one of the most desired Central Park West buildings, The Brentmoore, designed by Schwartz and Gross in 1910, a prewar Beaux Arts beauty of the highest order as it boasts impressive ceiling heights (almost 11ft) and unusually large windows that bathe all rooms in dreamy light, framing the most picturesque views of Central Park, Manhattan's most prized 843-acre sanctuary.
A multi-year renovation, the result of a collaboration between architect Alexander Antonelli and interior designer Buzz Kelly, has transformed this grandly proportioned 5,800+ square foot duplex with 4 to 5 bedrooms, a formal living room, dining room, and a study into an exquisite classic with all the expected modern conveniences and luxuries filed with character via gleaming hardwood floors and superb millwork detailing throughout.
The intimate elevator landing opens into an entry gallery leading you to the sublime living and dining rooms. You are instantly beckoned to the dreamy park exposures via a huge bay window. Because this building has tall ceilings - including those in the lobby - the height is pitch-perfect, and the park becomes an integral part of the interiors. While the proportions are grand, they are not overwhelming. The dining room features a large south-facing window that fills the center with soft light. An adjoining expertly milled study may be accessed from the entry gallery or via large pocket doors that open up to the living room, the perfect setting for entertaining. This room doubles as a media room with a drop-down projector and screen.
A vestibule leads you past the powder room to the enormous windowed eat-in-kitchen with its detailed custom millwork and Wolf, Sub Zero, and Jen Air appliances, a professional chef's dream, and attached to a large open, informal dining and living area with a large window looking back to the park.
The stairway leads you upstairs to the chambers wing. A corner primary bedroom celebrates the views to the park and leads to what have to be arguably the best closets in Manhattan or anywhere. Not only are they oversized and impeccably crafted and fitted, but they also boast an abundance of North-facing light with multiple windows. A wet bar is an additional perk. The bathroom, with sublime slabs of marble cladding the walls and floors, is centered with a magical freestanding soaking tub beneath a hand-painted window. A hallway on this floor (accessible via the elevator and houses a large walk-in Cedar closet) leads you to the secondary (3-5) bedrooms and 3 additional bathrooms, each well proportioned with outstanding closet space. A detailed laundry room and another separate utility room make this home extremely functional.
Throughout this impeccable home, you are a beneficiary of discretely ducted, zoned Central air conditioning and heating, advanced Lutron lighting systems, and a Crestron system controlling lights, sound, shades, etc. The extent of detailing is too long to list here. While impressive, this home also oozes charm, warmth, and outstanding energy. This has to be one of the most coveted corridors on the Upper West Side, moments from Lincoln Center, Columbus Circle, and New York's best boutiques and restaurants. This exclusive boutique-scaled building (just 28 homes) enjoys the highest levels of privacy, service, and security with a 24-hour attended lobby that is both regal and understated, a new and outstanding full-time super, and a backup generator. This home includes two oversized storage units, and pets are welcome.
