A timeless prewar classic in an unbeatable location. Come see this beautifully restored, maintained and move-in ready five-room residence on a picturesque, tree-lined Central Park block in the heart of the Upper West Side. With north, south, and east exposures on a high floor, the apartment is both sunlit and exceptionally quiet. A gracious entrance foyer sets the tone, leading into an elegant living room ideal for entertaining or relaxing in comfort. The formal dining room - easily convertible to a third bedroom - features a stunning custom cherry built-in with abundant storage. The expansive, windowed kitchen masterfully blends restored original cabinetry with custom-built additions, complemented by granite countertops, a tumbled marble mosaic floor, and premium appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine cooler, Viking range with a vented hood, and a Bosch dishwasher. A dedicated laundry room houses a vented Miele washer/dryer and offers the flexibility to convert the space back to a half bath with board approval. Beyond a glass door, the private bedroom wing provides a quiet retreat. A tastefully updated windowed bathroom serves two well-proportioned bedrooms. The bedrooms feature stripped original doorframes, custom built-ins, and custom closets. Other features of this outstanding home include 9+ foot ceilings, restored floor to ceiling hardwood doors (some with stained glass transoms), original oak floors, Italian marble-topped radiator covers, recessed lighting, upgraded electrical, skim-coated walls and custom Hunter Douglas shades. 41 West 82nd Street is a coveted pet-friendly prewar co-op with a live-in superintendent (who accepts packages), video security, bike storage, private storage (waitlist), and a beautifully maintained outdoor patio with BBQ and seating. The location is a dream - a half block to Central Park and the Diana Ross 82nd Street Playground, and a short walk to Zabar's, Citarella, Fairway, Trader Joe's, the Columbus Avenue Greenmarket, the American Museum of Natural History, the Children's Museum, Hayden Planetarium, multiple transportation options, and the amazing bars, boutiques, cafes, cultural institutions and restaurants that make the Upper West Side such a wonderful place to live.
