Property Description for 941 Park Ave, 6-C
As you enter the massive entry foyer of apartment 6C from its semi-private elevator vestibule, you are immediately transported to a grand era of New York City architecture. Situated on the north-east corner of 81st Street, the apartment is sunny and cheerful and comprises +/- 4,500 square feet, about the same size as a typical 4-story townhouse. Originally designed as a 12-room apartment (now 10 rooms), it has 4 master bedrooms, a grand and welcoming living room with a wood burning fireplace, over 10-foot-tall ceilings throughout, a large formal dining room ideal for hosting holiday dinners, a well-proportioned library conveniently adjacent to both the living room and master bedroom, and a wonderfully expansive kitchen you'll actually enjoy cooking in. The present owner is an oenophile so 2 of the original staff rooms have been re-envisioned as walk-in temperature and humidity-controlled wine cellars.
941 Park Avenue was erected in 1927, during the lavish Roaring 20's, and is a boldly designed, 16-story building with only 34 apartments. As a result, this apartment has the scale (it was originally designed with 4 staff rooms), size and details of the finest prewar apartments along the Avenue. In addition, the architects, Schwartz and Gross, designed many of the most well-regarded buildings on Park Avenue including 888 Park Avenue and 885 Park Avenue, among many others.
941 Park Avenue prides itself on its 24-hour white glove service provided by its wonderful and caring staff and has been home to many of the city's most illustrious residents. The building also just completed brand new renovations to its fitness room and children's playroom. The apartment includes a storage bin in the basement. There are no ongoing assessments, the building permits trust ownership on a case by case basis and the 2% flip tax is payable by the purchaser.
If you are looking for a 4-bedroom apartment with expansive space and sunny exposures in a pre-war coop with excellent service and amenities, this apartment represents one of the city's best values. Please contact me today to schedule a time to view 6C.

Quick Profile
Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.
With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.
Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .
There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
