A Private Pricing Opinion — what your apartment at 425 Central Park West would likely sell for today, what it costs to sell, and what you’d walk away with — reviewed personally against condition, exposures, renovation quality, and the competition actually on the market.
425 Central Park West is a low-rise prewar condominium facing the northern part of Central Park. H. I. Feldman designed the red-brick apartment house, completed in 1941. Many apartments retain sunken living rooms, with a change in floor level marking the transition from the entrance or dining area into the main room.
Time Equities converted the building to condominium ownership during the 2000s. Apartment closings became concentrated in 2007 and 2008, and the property now has both established resales and occasional sponsor offerings. Its interior stock includes studios, one-bedroom homes and larger apartments created through combinations.
A park entrance lies across Central Park West, near the Pool and the park's wooded northern landscape. East-facing rooms can look toward that open space. The building's modest height places much of its park frontage near the tree canopy, while side and rear apartments have different outlooks.
Architecture and unit composition
The exterior uses brick and a regular pattern of apartment windows. Inside, the split between raised entrance areas and sunken living rooms is characteristic of many original plans. Railings separate the levels in some apartments, retaining a visual connection between dining and living space.
The smaller inventory includes studios and one-bedroom homes, with recorded interiors around 500 to 900 square feet. Separate kitchens occur in original layouts; later renovations have changed cabinetry, appliances and openings between rooms. A sunken living room also introduces internal steps that remain part of the apartment's circulation despite elevator access to the floor.
Larger homes include two-bedroom layouts and combinations with three bedrooms and multiple bathrooms. Joined apartments can produce a wider frontage and more extensive living space, but their plans depend on the original lines that were combined. Some of the highest total resale consideration has involved these expanded homes.
The park-facing elevation creates a specific exposure advantage for certain apartments. Others face the street side or interior portions of the block. A top-floor combination and a compact lower-floor home can therefore differ in both room count and outlook, even though they share the same address and building services.
Building operations
Doorman coverage is provided during afternoon and evening hours, with a resident superintendent supporting the property. A fitness room, central laundry, bicycle storage and separate storage facilities supplement the apartments. The entrance staffing schedule is part-time.
The DOF residential ownership count shows one owner holding 21 of the 60 residential condominium lots, or 35%. That is a material concentration for project financing and condominium governance. A lender assessing this building will need the current project information alongside the individual buyer's application.
The condominium's residential lots are Class 2. There is no building-level tax abatement identified on the current roll, so an older advertisement describing a benefit should not be used to project a current owner's taxes. Apartment tax bills and common charges are separate obligations.
A DOB alteration signed off in 2013 addressed the apartment count at the cellar level and recorded an apartment combination. That history makes the approved configuration particularly important for lower-level homes and combinations: the current room arrangement must correspond to the space legally included in the apartment.

How to read the facts on this page. Items attributed to an offering plan describe the building as it was offered at that filing — unit mix, square footage, the amenity program as planned. They are not a statement about how the building operates today. Tax and compliance figures are sourced separately to current City records and carry their own dates. House rules, staffing and fee policy can change by board resolution without any public filing: treat every policy line here as a starting point for diligence and confirm it with the managing agent. Where this page compares one building or neighborhood to another, that is our analysis of the recorded record — it names the measure, the period and the sample it rests on, and it is an observation about medians rather than a prediction about any particular apartment.
