Presenting the first offering in decades of a superb, rarely available duplex penthouse, located in the tower at the famed Art Deco Emory Roth-designed Ardsley on Central Park West at 92nd Street. For years, it was the residence of Barbra Streisand, and for many years prior to that, of lyricist Lorenz Hart. The 3670 square feet of sophisticated interior space and 2500 square feet of terraces includes enormous and gracious entertaining rooms, completely surrounded by wrap terraces. Flooded with sunlight, the apartment has sweeping city, Central Park and reservoir views. The ceiling heights range from 10-12 feet throughout, with most over 11 feet. A private elevator landing leads to a large, inviting entry gallery. The living room and dining room flow off the gallery, which also houses the graceful staircase leading to the master bedroom suite. The private living space on the main level includes two bedrooms, two baths, a cozy TV den plus a spectacular corner library (which could become another bedroom), all in a large wing off the entry foyer. The romantic and very private master bedroom suite on the building's top level has enormous planting terraces with separate access for entertaining. There are wood burning fireplaces in the living room, library, and master bedroom. The beautiful flow of space is suitable for easily entertaining over 100 people. The apartment has multiple zoned central AC, irrigated terraces, a 450 bottle wine closet, 27 all new windows and seven new terrace doors. The full service co-op allows pets and pied-a-terres, has a fitness center, children's playroom, two bike rooms, a lending library and tenant storage rooms. With views in all directions, this spectacular home is truly one-of-a-kind. Showings will begin on Monday, April 22nd.
