Description

Ideally situated at the corner of Park Avenue and East 82nd Street, 950 Park Avenue is a distinguished palazzo-inspired cooperative designed in 1921 by renowned architect J. E. R. Carpenter. With leafy treetop vistas, this gracious and newly-renovated residence proffers grandly scaled rooms, soaring ceilings, and delightful natural and reflected light throughout.

Accessible from a private elevator landing, this beautifully renovated Classic 8 offers a generous and impressive layout. The grand marble entry foyer, with soaring 10-foot ceilings, opens into a bright and expansive living and dining suite that stretches over 40 feet. Both rooms feature stunning herringbone hardwood floors. The living room is centered around a wood-burning fireplace with an elegant marble mantel and enjoys oversized windows, while the dining room provides a perfect setting for hosting, with generous scale, excellent light, and refined finishes.

The private quarters are equally inviting, featuring three generously sized bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms share a beautifully renovated, windowed marble bathroom, while the oversized corner primary suite boasts its own updated bath and a spacious walk-in closet. A charming built-in office with custom stained-glass windows, along with a full guest bath, complete this wing.

The newly renovated custom chef’s kitchen is a true standout, offering a large eat-in layout, an expansive butler’s pantry, and a built-in banquette. It is outfitted with premium appliances from Wolf and Sub-Zero, including convection, warming, and microwave ovens, as well as an in-unit GE washer and dryer.

Additional features include new wide-plank flooring throughout, brand-new designer light switches from Forbes & Lomax, updated electrical systems, new PTAC units in the kitchen, den, and primary bedroom, as well as 24 custom interior doors.

950 Park Avenue is an elegant white-glove cooperative with impeccable staffing, including full-time doormen and a resident manager. Amenities include a fully fitted rooftop fitness center, a beautifully landscaped rooftop garden terrace with sweeping views toward Central Park, and dedicated storage. Ideally located in the heart of the Upper East Side’s historic district, the building is moments from Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the boutiques and restaurants of Madison Avenue.
