Southmoor House

Southmoor House is a 17-story Art Deco condop completed in 1937, offering boutique, white-glove living directly across from Central Park on Central Park South. The building contains roughly 66 residences in layouts ranging from studios to four-bedroom apartments, including duplex penthouses and large reconfigured combinations that create loft-like volumes. Interiors commonly reflect pre-war details — high ceilings, crown moldings, decorative chandeliers and mantled fireplaces — alongside modern updates such as new mechanicals, recessed lighting, renovated kitchens with high-end appliances, marble baths and built-in storage. Many units feature oversized windows, Juliette balconies or private terraces that capture direct and panoramic park views. Common areas and services emphasize full-service hospitality: a 24-hour doorman, resident manager, porter, on-site gym, laundry room, bike room and a building courtyard. The façade retains restored period marble and original Art Deco flourishes. The condop operates with condo-like flexibility: no board interviews or burdensome financial disclosures, permissive subletting, and acceptance of LLCs, trusts, foreign buyers and pied-a-terres. Pet-friendly policies, strong financial reserves, recently updated infrastructure and relatively low maintenance charges (which often include taxes and utilities) support both primary residences and investor ownership. Its address places residents steps from Columbus Circle, the Time Warner Center, shops, world-class dining, performing arts at Lincoln Center and immediate access to multiple subway lines and Central Park recreation.
