Apartment 9A is a rare high-floor classic offering at the famed El Dorado. Lived in and lovingly maintained by the same owners for many decades, it's a beautiful, sun-filled and grand, corner classic six-room home with two private terraces. One of only two apartments on the floor, the apartment is both private and quiet. Open city views from three exposures can be found throughout as well as views of Central Park from the terrace off the living room and primary suite. All casement windows and terrace doors are newly installed and fully board- and landmark-approved, sparing the new owner from replacement.
For lovers of Art Deco grandeur, the residence features an abundance of classic El Dorado architectural details throughout including herringbone floors, beamed ceilings, picture-frame, crown and baseboard moldings, solid wood doors, open archways, and a decorative fireplace. The scale of the home is even more impressive, enhanced by a corner primary suite with double exposures, high ceilings, abundant oversized windows, expansive rooms and great natural light throughout. There is an extraordinary amount of double-deep and walk-in closet storage that maximizes living space.
The flexible and expansive layout presents a fabulous nearly 60' entertaining expanse with oversized living room, formal dining room, and extended entry gallery with three huge walk-in closets (one cedar). The two private terraces off both the living room and formal dining room enhance entertaining. The south-facing terrace spans the entirety of the living room and the primary bedroom. A private resident's wing features two huge bedrooms with two full bathrooms, and abundant closet storage. The corner primary suite features through-wall air conditioning. The eat-in kitchen features a butler's pantry, full size washer and dryer, original Art Deco steel cabinetry and windowed staff room, that can easily serve as a guest bedroom or home office with full bathroom.
Rarely available is this combination of truly remarkable elements: open city views, private outdoor space, grand and gracious layout with flexibility and opportunity to customize, abundant original architectural detail and elegant iconic building with white glove services; a true one-of-a-kind home.
The El Dorado is one of the few double tower buildings that makes up the iconic Central Park West skyline: a true white-glove full-service cooperative. The interior and exterior luxury design of this landmark Art Deco building was the work of two New York architectural firms - Margon & Holder and the renowned Emery Roth. The elegant white-glove building features on-site management, doorman and concierge, on-site superintendent, state-of-the-art fitness center, playroom, mini basketball court, bike room, storage room, and resident-only garage (subject to availability and fee). The building is pet friendly. Passenger elevators in five elevator banks are controlled by key cards for security. Window assessment: $205.75/month ending December 2027.
