Timeless elegance with breathtaking Central Park views. Perched high above Central Park, Apartment 11 North at The Kenilworth is a meticulously restored and exquisitely renovated masterpiece that seamlessly blends modern luxury with its original 1907 grandeur. With an expansive 39 feet of direct Central Park frontage, this exceptional home offers unobstructed, picturesque views stretching from the iconic duck pond to the skyline beyond—an irreplaceable vantage point in one of Manhattan’s most coveted locations. This three-bedroom, three-bathroom residence unfolds with a dramatic 15-foot gallery, leading into a magnificent 25-foot-wide living room. Towering ceilings adorned with meticulously restored original crown molding amplify the sense of grandeur, while oversized, custom wood-framed windows bathe the space in natural light. Restored pocket doors open to a 20-foot-long formal dining room, making the home perfect for both intimate gatherings and grand entertaining. The exquisite original oak paneling, now finished in a soft, creamy white, remains intact, and an ornate hearth bears the coat of arms of England’s Castle Kenilworth (circa 1100)—the very inspiration behind this landmark residence’s name. The corner primary suite is a sanctuary of refinement, offering dual perspectives over Central Park to the east and the historic Universalist Church tower to the north—a rare and coveted feature shared by only three residences. Custom-built closets and a windowed en-suite bathroom finished in timeless cream marble complete this private retreat. The additional two bedrooms, one currently designed as a sophisticated, lacquered library, showcase open city views and share fully renovated, spa-like bathrooms. The kitchen wing is equally impressive, featuring a newly installed wet bar and butler’s pantry, a custom eat-in kitchen with white cabinetry, stone countertops, and top-of-the-line Viking and Sub-Zero appliances. A walk-in pantry and separate laundry room ensure effortless convenience. Every element of the home has been meticulously updated, including state-of-the-art central air conditioning, all-new plumbing and electrical systems, and historically accurate fenestration—preserving the home’s timeless character while offering modern comfort. Built in 1908 in the distinguished French Second Empire style, The Kenilworth is one of New York’s finest prewar cooperatives. This white-glove building offers an elevator operator, full-time doorman, resident manager, private storage, central laundry, and a resident roof terrace. With 50% financing permitted and pet-friendly policies, it is an exceptional offering in every way. Apartment 11 North at 151 Central Park West is a rare and breathtaking residence, where history, elegance, and modern luxury converge. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true masterpiece in the heart of the Upper West Side.
