Discover the grandeur of 1916 architecture in this never-before-offered 4 bedroom 3 bathroom home at the iconic Astor Court co-op. This 8-room apartment embodies the charm and extravagance of bygone days and is chock full of opportunity to create a truly world-class home. Thanks to the thoughtful design of renowned architect Charles Platt, every window of this approximately 2500 sf apartment offers open exposures. Facing east and west, this vast home with soaring 10foot ceilings is sun-flooded morning and evening - with the extra benefit that 5 of the 8 rooms overlook the tranquil one-acre private garden at the center of the Astor Court co-op.

The layout of apartment 5R5S, repurposed and expanded in the 1930's, provides great flexibility of space and many rarities - including surprise 'bonus' spaces, unrivalled closet area, east-west cross current and the high bar of 1916 construction. The gracious central hall layout opens west to an oversized Living Room with a wood-burning fireplace and 6foot windows and east to the Dining Room, laundry and a large 'bonus' room, which can be used as a stand-alone fourth bedroom or even den/study, with a third full bath. The very separate bedroom wing provides 3 full bedrooms and 2 full baths. The Primary Bedroom is living-room-sized with an en suite bath and two walk-in closets. The wide hall of the bedroom wing features a bonus 10x4.5foot storage area/closet that translates seamlessly into a home office/study/library. And the double-windowed kitchen and dining area invite the serious chef to create a dream culinary experience. All this space enhanced by pre-pre-war details like double French doors, coved crown molding, hardwood floors, 10foot ceilings, generous room dimensions and more - an exciting architectural combination.
