Listing Notes

Light-filled, classic three-bedroom blending pre-war character with a smart, functional layout in prime UWS location just steps from Central Park. A proper entry hall leads into an expansive living/dining room that easily accommodates both lounging and gracious dining. Adjacent is a generously scaled, recently updated kitchen with a breakfast bar, sleek white marble counters, abundant cabinetry, and premium stainless-steel appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Viking range, and Miele dishwasher. Two of the three bedrooms feature en-suite bathrooms, large walk-in closets, and lovely northern views of the Dakota with a peek of Central Park. The third bedroom enjoys open southern exposures and two large closets, offering flexibility as a bedroom, den or home office. Additional highlights include a powder room, in-unit washer/dryer, and exceptional storage with five oversized closets throughout the home. The Oliver Cromwell is a full-service, Emery Roth-designed cooperative with a full-time doorman, live-in resident manager, and full building staff, located just off Central Park West in the heart of the Upper West Side.
