Perfectly situated just off Central Park West and directly across from the American Museum of Natural History and Theodore Roosevelt Park, this elegant pre-war one-bedroom residence offers a rare blend of classic architecture and timeless appeal. Located on the elevated first floor of the distinguished Hayden House, the apartment enjoys a sunny and picturesque southern exposure with open views of the park and the iconic Rose Planetarium.

A gracious entry vestibule with two coat closets leads through tall French doors into a refined reception gallery and an impressively scaled living room. With soaring ceilings over eleven feet high, beautiful pre-war details, and a striking decorative marble fireplace, the living space is both dramatic and inviting, easily accommodating entertaining and dining. A large arched window frames the view and floods the room with natural light throughout the day.

The thoughtfully designed, windowed kitchen is tucked away and features custom cabinetry, stone countertops, and high-quality appliances, offering excellent functionality while remaining discreetly separated from the living area. A corridor provides privacy between the public and private spaces of the home and leads to the exceptionally quiet bedroom. The windowed marble bathroom is finished with classic materials and a glass-enclosed shower.

The Hayden House is a landmark pre-war cooperative completed in 1908 and converted to co-op in 1976. It is located on one of the Upper West Side’s most sought-after blocks. Residents are welcomed by an opulent marble lobby and enjoy the services of a part-time doorman (8am-11pm on Monday through Saturday, & 12-8pm on Sunday’s), a live-in resident manager, laundry facilities, and a bike room. With Central Park just moments away and world-class cultural institutions, dining, shopping, and transportation at your doorstep, this home offers an iconic New York City lifestyle in an enduring and elegant setting.
