For decades, noted New York philanthropists Stephen and Anna-Maria Kellen served on the boards of the city’s most respected cultural institutions, the Metropolitan Museum of Art among them, and lived at 784 Park Avenue, which was designed by Emery Roth & Sons. For the first time in more than 70 years, the apartment they lived in is on the market. The 14-room duplex co-op is listed at $14.995 million.

The apartment opens to a gracious marble-floored gallery flooded with light. As befits the home of two art enthusiasts, the spacious salon has ample wall space to properly display a collection and a wood-burning fireplace for atmosphere. A library has a connecting powder room and spacious balcony. The formal dining room has mahogany herringbone floors and west-facing windows. This floor also has an eat-in kitchen with double exposures, windowed pantry, and second powder room.
All five bedrooms on the second floor can be reached by elevator or the apartment’s grand staircase. The master suite has double exposures, a massive dressing room, and lavish bath with access to a second terrace. This floor also has a laundry room, kitchenette, and very generous closet space.
784 Park Avenue is a full-service building with a doorman, resident super, and manned elevator. Optional staff quarters with two bedroom and shared bath on the ground floor are also available. Amenities include a gym, playground, bike room, and storage. It is a short walk away from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Museum Mile, and premier Madison Avenue shopping.
