Description

Perfectly positioned atop the premier prewar co-operative, 895 Park Avenue, this palatial duplex penthouse epitomizes unparalleled luxury with impeccably proportioned spaces, perfect for sophisticated entertaining and everyday living. All of the entertaining rooms have French doors opening onto an expansive wrap terrace. The lush, landscaped terrace envelops three sides of the residence, providing the perfect space for alfresco entertaining amidst serene surroundings.

Boasting breathtaking vistas of the iconic Manhattan skyline, there is an abundance of natural light that pours through every window of this spectacular home. There are six bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and a powder room.

A private elevator landing welcomes you to an expansive windowed entrance gallery off which is a windowed powder room and a large coat closet. The gallery is bathed in radiant sunlight and opens onto a meticulously landscaped wrap-around terrace.

There is a magnificent corner south and east facing living room which exudes sophistication; it has a working fireplace, a 10’6" ceiling, four oversized windows, and French doors also leading to the terrace. Across the gallery is the grand formal dining room which sets the stage for lavish gatherings; this regal room has three exposures and French doors leading to the terrace.

A windowed butler’s pantry connects the dining room to the kitchen, it is equipped with a Miele dishwasher, a Scotsman icemaker, a sink, and a large pantry closet. The windowed eat-in kitchen has custom cabinets, wood floors, marble countertops, a Subzero refrigerator, a Miele dishwasher, double Viking ovens, and a six-burner range with a custom Abbaka cooper hood.

Adjacent is a large, windowed breakfast room with a built-in banquette.

Descending an elegant sweeping set of stairs are the tranquil private quarters. The luxurious primary suite beckons with a spacious bedroom and sitting room with a working fireplace, both bathed in sunlight and connected by pocket doors. Complementing the suite, a chic windowed dressing room, two bathrooms, and generous closets ensure ultimate comfort and convenience.

There are four additional bedrooms, two with en-suite baths and two sharing a bathroom. Completing this level, is a corner library, a windowed laundry room with a sink and storage, along with five hallway closets. A back staircase connects to the kitchen, and both the passenger and service elevators service both floors of the duplex.

This pre-war cooperative was built in 1930, designed by Sloan and Robertson and houses only thirty-eight residences.

Impeccable staffing includes full-time doorman and porters, and a live-in resident manager. Building amenities include a gym and squash court with a basketball hoop. The building allows 50% financing, there is a 3% flip tax, and it is pet-friendly.
