3 Lincoln Center at 160 West 66th St. PHA

Best views in NYC. ‘All the mystery and the beauty in the world’ are conveyed by sweeping panoramas of Central Park, a broad expense of Hudson River up to the GW Bridge, the iridescent 5th Avenue skyline and the glittering verticality of midtown Manhattan from an exquisitely designed 4 plus bedroom, 3600sf penthouse. Floor to ceiling windows comprise the north, east and west facades of this fabulous residence located in a premier white glove condominium adjacent to Lincoln Center and its abundance of cultural venues at the dynamic center of the Upper Westside. A generous gallery opens into 70 feet of knockout City and Park views encompassing a 38 foot living room and 20 foot dining room. An enchanting eat-in kitchen fabricated by Liecht with custom cabinetry, sourced stone countertops and top-of-the-line appliances overlooks Central Park. The enormous master bedroom, with a superb ensuite bath and dressing room, has broad aerial views up and down the Hudson River. A second master bedroom with dazzling Park and River vistas is now used as a home office. There are two additional bedrooms with sensational views and a total of 4 full baths. Amenities include central air conditioning, a separate laundry room and myriad walk in closets. One of Manhattan’s finest condominiums, this full-service building provides 24-hour doorman and concierge service, a state of the art fitness center, a superb swimming pool, large events room with a fully equipped kitchen and direct access to Lincoln Center. After taking in a symphonic sunset from this enchanting space, you may secretly believe, like John Updike, that people living anywhere else have to be, in some sense, kidding.
