Penthouse A at the Oliver Cromwell is truly a rare crown jewel floating serenely above it all. With a sprawling three floors, grand terrace, and unobstructed views from Central Park to the Hudson River, this apartment is the perfect “mansion in the sky” perched peacefully above Central Park West and 72nd Street.
The interiors were thoughtfully reimagined by the award-winning team at Mutuus Studio and featured in multiple publications including Architectural Digest. They artfully combine classic pre-war details with an updated and modern take. The apartment features:
• Unobstructed views north, west, and south
• High ceilings, hardwood floors, UV-protected casement windows, and central audio throughout
• A large living room and dining area on the first floor with a cozy den, a powder room, and an extremely well-equipped kitchen
• Kitchen with Subzero refrigerator, Thermador gas range, and two Miele dishwashers
• Second level includes home office, a kitchenette with Miele dishwasher, a bedroom with ensuite bathroom, and a huge terrace
• Sprawling terrace spanning over 300 square feet with retractable awning and automated irrigation
• Full third level dedicated to the primary suite with large walk-in closet and luxurious, five-fixture bathroom with an oversized soaking tub and steam shower
• Washer & dryer can be installed with board approval
Built in 1927 by renowned architect Emery Roth, the Oliver Cromwell is a white-glove cooperative located right off Central Park West in the heart of the Upper West Side.
