Literally PERFECT.  Triple Mint showstopper with views of Central Park from every room but one, and a renovation that rivals any new development! Enter via a semi-private landing into an open gallery, where immediately you are greeted with massive East-facing picture windows framing breathtaking vistas of Central Park, the Jacqueline Onassis Reservoir, and the Fifth Avenue skyline. The rarely seen, open side-by-side living room and formal dining room are perched perfectly on the 10th floor overlooking Central Park, perfect for entertaining while enjoying the mesmerizing views. A new state-of-the-art, windowed eat-in chef's kitchen is conveniently located next to the dining room and designed so that you can see Central Park while cooking and eating! The kitchen features two sinks, a six-burner vented stove, two ovens, a warming drawer, and endless counter and cabinet space including a center island with a sink and hidden television. In addition to the Park views, the kitchen offers bright afternoon Western exposures, and a large banquet for informal dining.  The entire home has a fabulous flow. A stunning windowed wet bar with wine storage overlooking the Park and Reservoir is off the dining room and connects to the Park facing library/fourth bedroom. Adjacent to the library and servicing the entertaining rooms is a stunning powder room. Behind the library, you will find a large, cozy and comfortable bedroom with a beautifully appointed full bathroom. While this is the only room in the home without a Park view, it is tranquil and large enough for a king-size bed. On the opposite side of the home is the super luxurious, South East corner, double primary bedroom. This sanctuary boasts enormous picture windows showcasing incredible views of Central Park, the Reservoir, and the Midtown skyline. Located in the bedroom suite is an oversized walk-in dressing room with a water refrigerator. The primary bathroom epitomizes a spa experience with a freestanding tub, double sinks, and a generous shower offering the same captivating views. Also in this wing of the apartment is an oversized South-facing bedroom with a large walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom clad in Carrera marble. This bedroom is large enough for two full-size beds and also has amazing views of the Park, Midtown, and Fifth Avenue skyline. This truly spectacular residence includes multiple zones of new state of the art central air conditioning, wiring for sound throughout, new solid oak floors, lacquered paint, super high doorways with solid panel doors, and a true laundry room with vented washer/dryer and sink.  Located at 262 Central Park West, between West 86th & 87th Streets, The White House is a distinguished 15-story building overlooking the Southern end of the Central Park Reservoir with only 2 units per floor.
