Grand Park Avenue 13 room home in one of the most convenient Upper East Side locations. This spacious trophy residence is approximately 5,000 sq ft and offers generously proportioned rooms that are a toast to the Gilded Age. Located off a private elevator landing, the glamorous marble entry foyer leads into an extraordinary 33ft wood-paneled corner living room with great light and open views over Park Avenue. Adjacent to the living room is an impressive formal dining room which is ideal for elegant entertaining. Features include 4 big bedrooms (all with en suite bathrooms), 5.5 bathrooms, a wood paneled library with a fabulous bar, a windowed eat-in kitchen and an abundance of "bonus" space (originally 4 staff rooms that are presently being used as a laundry room, a bedroom and a gym.) Other highlights include meticulously maintained hardwood floors, 2 fireplaces, high ceilings, central air, prewar details and an abundance of closets (including 5 walk-ins.) Rarely does such a large apartment with so much Park Avenue frontage come on the market. Built in 1925, this distinctive 15-story white glove, full-service co-op offers incredible 24hr security, a basement storage bin (that transfers with the sale), a fitness room and bike room. Pets and pied-a-terres are permitted and there's a 3% flip tax paid by buyer. Please note, no financing allowed.
