Residence 5W is a mint-condition classic, beautifully restored with exquisite prewar detail, soaring beamed ceilings, extraordinary original woodwork, central air conditioning, leaded glass windows and doors, and oversized windows with partial city and oblique Central Park views from all four exposures. 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.

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 with direct Central Park views and a luxurious renovated marble bath with radiant heated floors, dual vanities, and extensive custom storage. Elegant yet comfortable, grand yet livable, Residence 5W offers the scale, craftsmanship, and character of a truly exceptional Upper West Side home.
