Description

This sophisticated Park Avenue residence has been renovated to perfection; seamlessly combining classic and traditionally appointed rooms with a chic and modern aesthetic. As you enter from a semi-private landing, you are greeted by a glamorous 35’ gallery. There is a stunning, south facing living room with a wood burning fireplace and beautiful custom millwork.

The dining room, impressive in size, creates the perfect backdrop for entertaining. The sweep, and scale of these public rooms offer an effortless flow for both formal entertaining and comfortable everyday living. Adjacent to the dining room is a gorgeous chef’s kitchen featuring a suite of top-of-the-line appliances. Counter tops and an island are clad in extra thick marble slabs, a butler’s pantry with antique mirrored cabinetry, and a gracious, informal dining area are all accented by chic, eye-catching, black and white, heated, marble checked floors.

A cozy and inviting media room, staff room, laundry area with full size washer/dryer, and bath complete this part of the apartment. The serene, private quarters consist of an enormous primary bedroom suite with sunny South and East exposures. There are custom closets lining the room as well as a perfectly outfitted walk-in. The luxurious, windowed, ensuite bath features a steam shower with fog free mirrors, a claw foot tub, heated floors, two vanities and gleaming mosaic tile.

There are three additional large bedrooms, all with custom cabinetry, ample closet space and two beautifully appointed baths. Throughout the home you will find high ceilings, decorative molding, herringbone floors, exquisite millwork, oversized custom doors, de Gournay hand painted silk wallpaper, new Skyline 100 series windows, an extensive Sonos system, video security, hidden speakers, 4 zoned central AC, new gas lines, and tons of storage. Built in 1927, 885 Park Avenue is a full-service, white-glove cooperative located on one of the most desirable stretches of the Avenue. Residents enjoy an array of amenities, including a full-time doorman, resident manager, a newly renovated fitness center and private storage. The building is pet friendly and there is a 3% flip tax paid by buyer. Video available upon request.
