1192 PARK Avenue #9B

1192 Park Avenue is an elegant prewar building and a great example of Rosario Candelas genius. Manhattan's premier architect of the early 20th century, Candela did not disappoint with the design of this apartment. Sharing a semi-private landing, this sunny 8 room (now 7 room) apartment has a very generous and open feeling. The wide gallery is over 28 and is an elegant space for art. Four rooms face Park Avenue. The large and beautifully proportioned living room has a wood-burning fireplace and herringbone hardwood floors, as well as a great view all the way down the avenue to the Chrysler Building. The large and light-filled formal dining room has open views to the west side and a peek at the reservoir. Beautiful eastern and western light streams into the living and dining rooms and the late afternoon and evening light is glorious as the sun is setting. There are 3 large bedrooms (or 2 and a library) which have outlooks east over Park Avenue. Two staff rooms have been combined into one pleasant room with a full bath. There is a comfortable square eat-in kitchen with a washer and dryer. Bring your architect to update this great apartment to its full potential.1192 has a live-in superintendent and full-time doormen. The building has a state-of-the-art gym, individual storage, a bicycle room and a central laundry for residents. Pets are welcome. The location is near many schools, Museum Mile, Central Park and Mt. Sinai Hospital, not to mention the many shops and restaurants for which Carnegie Hill is known. Showings permitted M-F, 9-5.
