Description

Residences at 812 Park Avenue are coveted for their graceful proportions, grandly-scaled rooms, and ideal location. Designed by James E. R. Carpenter in 1927, 812 Park Avenue remains one of the New York’s most important residential addresses; its refined Georgian elegance is timeless and enduring. Within, this delightful sun-drenched apartment is graced with soaringly high 10’4” ceilings, beautiful herringbone floors, and magnificent original architectural elements. The impressive formal Gallery opens to three glorious entertainment rooms. The grand 24-foot Living Room, with a wood-burning fireplace, and the adjacent inviting Library, share sunny, east-facing views above Park Avenue. The Library has a full ensuite bath and very ample closets and could easily serve as a wonderful Bedroom. Across the Gallery, the stately Dining Room is perfect for elegant dinners. And beyond, a bright Kitchen is supported by a Butler’s Pantry and a Staff Room with ensuite bath. Also accessed from the Gallery with a distinguishing hallway entrance, is the tranquil, west-facing Primary Bedroom. Spacious and light-filled, and with an ensuite bath and very ample closets, it is a peaceful oasis. Throughout, very tall ceilings are enhanced by gorgeous traditional moldings; proportions are graceful, and every room is expansive and elegant. The apartment’s layout, around a large central Gallery, allows for a marvelously open and welcoming sensibility. Among 812 Park Avenue’s many significant architectural attributes are a classically grand and impressive lobby and a beautifully landscaped central courtyard garden. Impeccable staffing includes a full-time doorman and porters, and a top resident manager. Residents benefit from a newly refurbished state-of-the-art private fitness center, and the apartment transfers with two sizeable individual storage units. Pets are welcome.
