Located in one of Park Avenue's finest white-glove prewar cooperatives, this classic 11-room residence commands 80 feet of Park Avenue frontage and is a vision of elegance and Old World grandeur. Designed by renowned architect Rosario Candela, the residence offers grand scale rooms with a graceful layout accentuated by magnificent original architectural elements. A sweeping 29-foot gallery opens onto a sprawling 33-foot corner living room with a woodburning fireplace. Three large windows overlooking Park Avenue and 72nd Street welcome a veritable bouquet of sunshine which beautifully illuminates the room. The home's soaring ceilings are enhanced by beautiful traditional moldings and flawless herringbone flooring may be found throughout. Accessed off the gallery and adjacent to the living room, there is a handsome 20-foot library with a woodburning fireplace that overlooks the Avenue. On the Eastern side of the gallery, there is a 25-foot formal dining room with two large windows. A vast eat-in-kitchen has ample room for dining, a butler's pantry, a separate laundry room and staff quarters. The private chambers include a sumptuous oversized master suite overlooking Park Avenue. There are two additional large bedrooms, each with a full-bath and an abundance of closet space. Two staff rooms situated off a private corridor have been combined and could easily serve as a generous 4th bedroom. Built in 1927, the limestone and brick Italian Renaissance building is one of the most distinctive buildings on Park Avenue.
