Rare Duplex Opportunity at the Iconic Gainsborough Studios on Central Park South
This is a rare chance to own a stunning duplex residence at the historic 1908 Landmark Gainsborough Studios, perfectly positioned on Central Park South.
The home features a dramatic 37’ x 23’ double-height living room with soaring beamed ceilings, oversized south-facing windows, and a gas fireplace — offering incredible light and volume. Enter through a gracious foyer, which leads to a full guest bath with a walk-in shower, and continue into the expansive living area, large gourmet kitchen with washer/dryer, dining area, and an inviting office/study.
The main-level primary bedroom includes an en suite bath and generous closet space. Upstairs, a second bedroom overlooks the grand living space below and includes its own full en suite bath.
Recent upgrades include a complete electrical overhaul, new double-pane windows throughout (31 in total), and a high-capacity Mitsubishi central heating and cooling system for year-round comfort.
The Gainsborough is a full-service cooperative with a recently renovated lobby, full-time staff, and modernized building systems. Pied-à-terre ownership and live/work use are permitted.
