3 bedroom Apartment For Sale: 812 PARK..

CONTRACT SIGNED A rare opportunity to own an elegant prewar duplex in a building classically designed by renowned architect James E. R. Carpenter. The apartment has been thoughtfully renovated and lovingly maintained. This opulent yet understated 8 room, high floor apartment was fashioned for gracious entertaining on its entry level, with private living quarters above. Over-sized windows throughout provide the apartment with wonderful light. A foyer with a cove-lit coffered ceiling opens to a graceful gallery leading to grand public rooms boasting 10 foot ceiling heights. The main level consists of a beautifully appointed library with built in bookcases; a spacious living room complete with wood-burning fireplace and intricate ceiling detail; a lovely dining room with finely concealed cabinetry for storing china and silver; and an attractive windowed eat-in kitchen. Upstairs, a central hall landing separates the master and second bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, and two maids rooms which can easily be reconfigured as a spacious third bedroom with en-suite bathroom. 812 is one of the most prestigious cooperatives on Park Avenue. Built in 1927, it earned James E. R. Carpenter the American Institute of Architects Award for that year. The building, consisting of 41 homes, predominantly duplex, has beautifully scaled rooms and magnificent architectural detail evocative of the elegance of old New York. Each apartment comes complete with its own individual basement laundry room and large storage unit. 812 is a full service white glove building with a 24 hour attended lobby and second-generation resident manager.
