823 Park Avenue is an exceptional grand maisonette. The home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy townhouse living with the amenities and services of an exquisitely renovated prewar condominium and an exclusive Park Avenue address.
The residence covers approximately 7,200 square feet of space, plenty of space for entertaining. The two-level home contains seven private bedrooms, six of which have en suite baths. There are two entrances to the residence; the lower level features a foyer with easy access to and from the lobby, while the upper level has a formal foyer off of the double-width living room and handsome wood-paneled library, both of which offer stunning fireplaces. The formal dining room is accessible from both the living room and the breakfast kitchen. There are three bedrooms on the upper level, as well as a staff room. The lower floor contains the guest suite, which houses a guest bedroom, full bath, salon with fireplace and separate study/receiving room. The master suite, entertaining kitchen with professional appliances and two more bedrooms overlook the 420-square-foot terrace. There are two powder rooms in the home, as well as a bar area with a 46-bottle capacity Sub-Zero wine refrigerator. The residence features coffered 10-foot ceilings, a curved staircase and custom herringbone oak flooring. The home offers custom lighting and stereo systems and is fully wired for A/V equipment, iPod stations, cable and internet and security.
The lovingly restored building offers a Classic Greek Revival–style lobby, which is lavishly appointed with polished marble floors, limestone walls and an onyx ceiling. The stunning lobby is staffed with a 24-hour doorman and a discreet, full-service concierge. There's also a live-in superintendent. The building also offers private wine storage and state-of-the-art fitness center.
There are few locations as luxurious as 823 Park Avenue. The Upper West Side is well known for being one of the most affluent neighborhoods in New York. It is also close to many cultural destinations with the Metropolitan Museum of Art located on nearby "Museum Mile." The building is also close to the lovely and verdant Central Park. The Upper West Side is also known for being a safe, charming and historic neighborhood. However, there are few options for nightlife, and public transportation is limited.
