Built in 1908 on the historic Gold Coast of Central Park West, alongside landmarks such as The Dakota and American Museum of Natural History, The Kenilworth embodies the elegance of early twentieth-century New York. From its magnificent French Second Empire Beaux-Arts lobby to its exceptional white-glove staff, the building offers timeless sophistication and privacy, with only three residences per floor.
A gracious windowed gallery separates the public entertaining rooms from the private bedroom wing. The expansive chef’s eat-in kitchen features Viking and Bosch appliances, handcrafted cabinetry, and an adjoining butler’s pantry with additional sink, refrigerator, and abundant storage. A separate service room includes a full-size washer/dryer, pantry, utility closet, and full bath.
The grand dining room is one of the home’s true treasures, richly paneled in rare original quarter-sawn flame oak with an extraordinary century-old patina. French doors open to a double living room with decorative fireplace, oversized south- and west-facing windows, and custom floor-to-ceiling built-ins designed seamlessly in keeping with the apartment’s original architecture. An adjacent alcove office can easily serve as a fourth bedroom or media room.
The private wing offers three beautifully proportioned bedrooms. The serene primary suite enjoys east and west exposures and features a luxurious renovated marble bath with radiant heated floors, dual vanities, and extensive custom storage.
