About
introducing residence 18b at 320 central park west - an exceptionally rare residence available for the first time in 40 years. this 4-bed, 4.5-bath home with a 700sf terrace directly off the living room has over 50 feet of sweeping, protected views over central park, the reservoir and the most incredible skyline views.
upon entering the residence from your private elevator landing, you will be greeted by the grand gallery. as you proceed, the enchanting views seen through the home's north, south, east and west exposures will hold your gaze captive. every bedroom in this expansive 3,500 square foot home promises superb views, sun-drenched spaces, and generous proportions, and comes with its own ensuite bathroom. the primary bedroom suite occupies the southwest corner of the residence and has its own entrance to the wrap terrace and bay window seating for a lovely, contemplative feel. further enhancing its appeal, the suite also features an ample dressing area with wall-to-wall closets and a luxuriously renovated marble bathroom with a glass-enclosed shower.
down the hallway, you will find three additional bedrooms, including a junior suite with a terrace and a large bathtub overlooking stunning city views. this home has been purposefully designed for entertaining, from its separate windowed eat-in chef's kitchen to its stately dining room stretching 21 feet long. the residence also offers ample flexibility, allowing the potential for a library conversion into an extra bedroom or expansion of the kitchen with additional space available for a home office. an in-unit washer & dryer and a guest powder room are also included.
the ardsley at 320 central park west sits at the corner of central park west and 92nd street, with the loveliest views of central park, the jacqueline kennedy onassis reservoir and the nyc skyline. designed by architect emery roth, the ardsley was the last of his grand central park west art-deco creations. the pet-friendly building is a white-glove, full service prewar co-op with a renovated lobby, fitness center, children's playroom, two bike rooms, large laundry room and private storage, with central park outside your front door.
the numbers suggest a better terrace than the reality, as it is too small in most areas.

Expert Opinion:
each of these terraces act more like balconies as they are too small to be practical, and being off the bedrooms, they clearly will not be used socially

Expert Opinion:
a 700-square-foot footprint is deceptive when a four-foot width kills all furniture potential. reclaiming the space by removing the solarium is the only "outdoor lover's" move here. it’s the difference between a claustrophobic glass box and a legitimate living level terrace with actual room to breathe.
