Don’t miss the opportunity to make this gorgeous, south-facing, 1,824 square-foot, 3-bedroom 3-bathroom apartment with PRIVATE STORAGE your new home at the iconic Olcott Condominium! With high, beamed ceilings and gracious proportions, this spacious apartment is the perfect blend of prewar grandeur and modern comforts including your own washer and dryer in one of the most coveted Upper West Side luxury residences, located just half a block from Central Park.

The entry foyer leads to the shared rooms of the home with a large, sunny living room boasting beautiful herringbone white oak floors and an adjacent separate formal dining area across from the chef’s kitchen. The open, designer kitchen features Italian custom cabinetry, Ceasarstone countertops and breakfast bar, integrated subzero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, and Dacor 5-burner range.

The three bedrooms are all generous in size with ample storage and the two larger bedrooms each feature an ensuite bathroom. Each of the three bathrooms is appointed with Waterworks fixtures, handmade glazed tiles, and radiant heated floors. The pristine primary bathroom also features a separate soaking tub and standing shower.

The Olcott is an Upper West Side landmark built in the 1920’s as a luxury hotel and converted to a White Glove condominium in 2006 by celebrated architect Andrew Escobar. The stunningly restored lobby harkens back to the opulence of old New York. Residents are treated to an array of the highest caliber of services and amenities with a 24-hour doorman and full building staff, including an on-site building manager, and well-equipped gym, playroom, resident lounge, cold storage, bike room and laundry on every floor (in addition to your in-unit W/D). The Olcott is a pet friendly building with Central Park at the end of the block and close proximity to some of the city’s best restaurants, cafes, bakeries, and boutique shopping.
*There is currently an assessment in the amount of $520.83 running through December 2024.
