High-Floor, Fully Renovated and Designer Decorated Prewar Three-Bedroom with Magnificent Park Avenue Views. Perfectly positioned on the ninth floor, this A-line, seven room apartment has three-bedrooms, three-bathrooms and enjoys superb light and views throughout. From a semi-private elevator vestibule, one enters the apartment into a beautifully appointed foyer setting the tone for the apartment’s stylishly elevated interiors. Directly off the foyer, the apartment’s living room features a wood-burning fireplace, custom millwork bookcases, as well as two large, east-facing windows overlooking Park Avenue. The living room’s spacious proportions easily accommodate multiple seating arrangements as well as a dining table alongside the windows. Accessed through a set of double-doors from the living room, the apartment’s formal dining room, currently used as a library, also benefits from excellent natural light from two east-facing windows overlooking Park Avenue. The apartment’s windowed, eat-in kitchen has been fully renovated and features an abundance of storage, ample counterspace, as well as a suite of upscale appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf range, and a full-size Sub-Zero wine cooler. The wonderfully designed kitchen is further complimented by a breakfast area with banquette seating. Separate from the entertaining rooms, the apartment’s three bedrooms are located along a dedicated hall. The corner primary bedroom enjoys magnificent light and views onto Park Avenue from three large windows facing east and south as well as a spacious walk-in closet. The windowed primary bathroom has been fully renovated and features a double vanity. The apartment’s additional two bedrooms are stylishly decorated and feature south-facing windows and ample closet space. Both additional bedrooms share a renovated, windowed bath. Additional features of this pristinely renovated apartment include 9’5 ceilings, a washer dryer, and thermostat-controlled heating and air-conditioning throughout. Located next to the kitchen, the apartment’s staff room features a large, west-facing window as well as a fully renovated windowed hall bath. This flexible space would work well an additional bedroom or an office.
