Make a remarkable part of New York history your home at the incomparable Beresford on renowned Central Park West.

This grand, three-bedroom, two and one-half bathroom plus staff room residence features the sprawling spaces and elegant details one would expect of a building of this stature. Crown moldings, baseboards and wainscoting border each room, and built-ins are abundant, adding excellent storage and finishes throughout.

Arrive at the distinctive home via a gracious entry gallery. To the left, you'll find a stately living room lined with breathtaking views that frame Central Park, the Midtown skyline and the striking Hayden Planetarium, while the ornate marble fireplace provides a warm, attractive focal point. To the right of the gallery lies an immense formal dining room spacious enough to accommodate a relaxing family room, if you prefer.  Just beyond, the large, well-appointed kitchen stands ready to serve large dinner parties or quiet family meals with equal aplomb thanks to stainless steel appliances by Wolf, Miele and Sub-Zero, surrounded by marble countertops and modern European cabinetry. A staff room with powder room, stacked GE washer-dryer and nearby separate service entrance lends added convenience.

Bedrooms are large and lit by oversized windows.  Quintessential Central Park views and light will nudge you awake in the tranquil master suite. This serene space is lined with ample closet space, built-ins and an en suite bathroom while the two additional bedrooms are situated adjacent to the home's second full bathroom.

Designed by Emery Roth — known for neighboring Central Park West buildings The San Remo, The Ardsley and El Dorado — the three octagonal copper-topped towers of the Beresford cut an iconic figure on the New York City skyline. Known for the extravagance of its sculptural elements, the building's buff brick, limestone and terra cotta facade is liberally decorated with cherubs, dolphins and rams along with elaborate rosettes and finials. Completed just a few weeks' shy of the Black Friday stock market crash of 1929, the building was designed during the heady 1920s and noted by the New Yorker for its "really large rooms, really high ceilings." It is, as described in its Landmarks Preservation Commission designation report, "a reminder of the heyday of luxury apartment building in New York."

Today the illustrious, exclusive building is known for its peerless white-glove service and amenities including 24-hour doorman and manned elevator service, state-of-the-art fitness center, storage and bike rooms and central laundry facilities. Set between 81st and 82nd streets, the building is bordered by New York City icons. Here, Central Park becomes your personal 800-acre garden while the neighboring American Museum of Natural History provides endless opportunities for exploration and the additional expanse of Theodore Roosevelt Park.
