Description

Most definitively one of the chicest and most elegant pied-a-terres on the market.

Occupying a long corner of Park Avenue, this perfect 2 bedroom, 2 bath cooperative has an enfilade of three grand entertaining rooms all flanked by large windows over Park Avenue. The rooms are high ceilinged with generous proportions, high doorways and resplendent with elegant details and exquisite craftsmanship.

A grand entry leads to the Living Room which is sun filled throughout the day as it occupies the corner over Park Avenue with windows facing East and South. The paneling in the library is of a quality unmatched outside the grandest apartments of Fifth and Park Avenues.

The private primary bedroom faces south with an en-suite bath.

The apartment was redone most recently by the firm of Ingrao and Associates, and is truly the most elegant, perhaps perfect of pied-a-terre apartments on the upper east side.
