Protected Central Park View.

This extraordinary 1,725 square foot three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath condominium on Central Park South is within one of the most iconic and timeless art deco landmarks in Manhattan, The Essex House.

This unique three-bedroom home was created by combining two one-bedroom apartments and acquiring 130 square feet from the building to make the gracious foyer, which is adorned with artisanal marble work floors and an exquisite blue macauba stone slab installation on the forward wall. An enormous owners walk-in storage closet is also accessible in the foyer.

The dry bar is perfectly located between the kitchen the dining area, complete with a Miele wine cooler.

All three bedrooms are fresh and bright, generously-proportioned, and offer sparkling city views as well as partial views of Central Park. Full bathrooms are en-suite to each bedroom and the master features Gioia Venatino marble floors and walls, Blue De Savoie marble slab countertops, and Bianco Carrara Mosaic tile work with seashell and mother of pearl border accents.

The Essex House, a luxury hotel with 185 privately owned residences managed by JW Marriott, was constructed in 1929 and opened as the largest and most luxurious hotel in Manhattan. Condominium apartment owners now enjoy a full range of white glove hotel services and world-class amenities including 24 hour in-room dining, valet parking, concierge, bell staff, maid service, fitness facility and spa, a business center, and the award-winning Southgate restaurant.
