Description
Welcome to the iconic El Dorado co-operative on Central Park West, and to a much sought-after L-line unit with a private elevator.
A key-locked elevator vestibule leads to an elegant gallery at the entrance to 10-L which opens into a gracious living room with 9'6" ceilings and tall windows with views facing west, overlooking rooftops to the skyline beyond. Enjoy breathtaking sunsets in the adjoining dining area which boasts custom millwork and shares the living room's large west-facing windows. The spacious and peaceful living room has built-in shelving, a decorative fireplace and mantle, and a lovely hardwood parquet floor.
The two bedrooms are pin-drop quiet and evenly sized with large built-out closets. The primary suite has two courtyard exposures and the adjacent windowed bathroom has the original mint green vintage tile and white appliances. Custom millwork is a feature throughout this apartment, and is found in the second bedroom making it an excellent office or library. The second bathroom has a corner shower. The hardwood floors are newly sanded in the hallway and bedrooms.
The kitchen has a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a stone countertop, and the adjacent pantry, which houses the washer/dryer, leads to the service landing and service elevator. There is excellent storage throughout the apartment including a large coat closet and a separate linen closet in the foyer.
Designed by Emery Roth in 1930, the El Dorado cooperative is a masterpiece of the Art Deco design era. Among Central Park West's most prized buildings, it features over 200 units across 31 stories. Amenities include white glove service with concierge, a full-time doorman, resident manager, and around-the-clock porters as well as a health club, half basketball court, children's playroom, a bike room and wait-listed parking. This pet-friendly building allows 50% financing and pied-a-terres.
There is an assessment for window replacements of $115.62 per month ending in December 2027, and another assessment for a variety of capital improvements of $1,480.95 per month ending in August 2025.
The apartment is being sold in as-is, where-is condition and will require some new appliances, and renovation to the two bathrooms and two windows per co-op rules.
Central Park and its stunning Reservoir are just across the street from the El Dorado, and the C, B, 1, 2 and 3 trains are all in close proximity. You'd be able to enjoy the best that the Upper West Side has to offer, with numerous restaurants and stores nearby, when living in this incredibly serene and lovely apartment. Welcome home.
