High above Central Park West, Residence 15A is a grand and gracious Classic 8 offering exceptional scale, abundant natural light, three exposures, and captivating glimpses of Central Park and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir. With a private elevator landing, three bedrooms plus a flexible fourth, three full bathrooms, a dedicated home office, and beautifully proportioned entertaining rooms, this is quintessential Upper West Side prewar living.
The elevator opens directly onto the residence's private landing and into an impressive reception foyer and gallery, creating an elegant sense of arrival.
The sprawling living room measures nearly 26' long and features a wood-burning fireplace, high beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, classic millwork, custom built-ins, and three south-facing windows. Its exceptional scale accommodates multiple seating areas, while southern light and a glimpse of Central Park and the Reservoir create a memorable backdrop.
Across the gallery, the approximately 22' formal dining room features beautiful wood paneling, three windows, and open north and west exposures, with generous proportions for large-scale entertaining.
The renovated, windowed eat-in kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and counter space, a large center island with seating, and excellent natural light. The adjoining service wing has been thoughtfully adapted for modern living with a dedicated home office, pantry and storage space, washer/dryer, and a flexible fourth bedroom with its own renovated full bathroom and nearby service entrance.
Privately situated off the gallery, the three principal bedrooms occupy their own wing. The expansive corner primary suite enjoys southern and western exposures, extensive built-in storage, a walk-in closet, an en-suite windowed bathroom, and a lovely glimpse of Central Park and the Reservoir. Two additional oversized bedrooms offer generous closets and excellent light, and a second windowed full bathroom serves the bedroom wing.
Throughout the home, over 9' ceilings, hardwood floors, oversized rooms, extensive custom built-ins, and remarkable storage reinforce the scale and character of this special residence. Its thoughtful separation of entertaining, sleeping, and service spaces provides a level of privacy and flexibility increasingly difficult to replicate in Manhattan.
