Description

This truly one-of-a-kind, beautifully renovated Park Avenue residence offers 3,800 square feet of grand-scale living in a premier "Gold Coast" location. Originally 11 rooms, the apartment was thoughtfully redesigned into 10 expansive rooms, and the gracious and highly adaptable layout is ideal for today's lifestyle. A magnificent, bright, and open entertaining expanse is complemented by a distinct private residential wing, creating an exceptional balance of scale and comfort, with multiple living, entertaining, and work-from-home spaces throughout. This stunning home offers a high-end luxury design while preserving the old-world detail, scale, and elegance of prewar architecture. Designed with the highest quality materials, state-of-the-art systems and top-of-line appliances, nothing was omitted for comfort, function, or design.

The impressive scale is showcased by oversized rooms, soaring 10' ceilings, huge windows, and lovely natural light. Magnificent architectural details provide elegance and distinction throughout. A dramatic custom entry gallery with cove ceilings and powder room is an inviting receiving area, leading to a series of elegant entertaining spaces including a grand living room with wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room, a beautiful library with exquisite millwork, a huge eat-in chef's kitchen, and a spacious den/media room with surround sound and plentiful storage. An adjacent full bath makes the space easily convertible to a private bedroom suite. The home currently offers three bedrooms and four-and-a-half baths, with flexibility to create up to five bedrooms, including a private guest suite.

Modern comforts and exceptional details include multi-zone central air conditioning, a full laundry area with Miele washer and dryer, built-in audio system, gorgeous hardwood floors with herringbone pattern and border inlay, pocket doors, wainscoting, pristine crown and baseboard moldings, high-beamed ceilings, and oversized windows framing tree-lined block views.

At the heart of the home is a spectacular eat-in kitchen designed for both everyday living and large-scale entertaining. It features a spacious breakfast area with built-in banquette for less formal dining, butler's pantry, multiple sinks, two dishwashers, and top-of-the-line appliances including Bosch wall oven and built-in microwave, 48" Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Sub-Zero wine refrigerator. Abundant custom cabinetry, pull-out pantry closets, and a stunning marble backsplash complete the space. A separate custom office / study space/ gym sits just beyond the breakfast area, discreetly enclosed by frosted glass barn doors.

The corner primary suite is a serene retreat with huge windows framing the space beautifully while showcasing two tree-lined exposures overlooking the Park Avenue malls. Additionally, there is a full dressing room, walk-in closet, and a spa-like windowed bath with double vanity and Waterworks fixtures. All bedrooms are spacious and privately positioned away from the formal entertaining rooms featuring en-suite baths and generous custom-fitted storage. Exceptional closets, including multiple walk-ins, are found throughout the home.

A rare offering combining scale, flexibility, and impeccable renovation in one of Park Avenue's most desirable addresses.
