Property Description for 480 Park Ave, 16-G

Penthouse living on Park Avenue. This incredible sun-bathed residence boasts expansive, meticulously-renovated interiors, complemented by two large private terraces. Gracious galleries welcome you on both levels, with the 16th floor perfectly designed for entertaining and the 17th presenting peaceful sleeping quarters. This four bedroom four bathroom “townhouse in the sky” is the only of its kind at 480 Park Avenue, a white-glove cooperative and grand masterpiece by Emery Roth. ?


Exemplified by exquisite finishes and generously-sized main rooms, the main level offers seamless flow for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. High architectural ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and twelve oversized windows infuse the space with light and air. The formal living room with fireplace is framed by custom quarter-sawn walnut built ins for a sophisticated backdrop. Throughout this floor, glass doors lead out to a spectacular terrace spanning the entire width of the home. ?


At the opposite end of this floor lies the central gallery and the breakfast room surrounded by gourmet kitchen, styled with custom cabinetry, Caesarstone counters, and premium Wolf, Bosch & Fisher-Paykel appliances including 2 ovens, a warming drawer, and 2 dishwashers. Adjacent sits the elegant dining room with southern terrace views for more formal meals. This level also offers a staff room/4th bedroom and a full bath.?? ?


Both the staircase and the elevator ascend to the upper level where 3 large bedrooms and 3 chic baths await. The gallery is bound by a large terrace extending almost the entirety of this floor. The spacious master retreat is a world all its own with four picture windows, office area accented by custom quarter-sawn millwork, plus his & her walk-in closets/dressing rooms. An opulent master spa bath clad in marble indulges with a high-end double-sink vanity and glass-enclosed steam shower. Additional two bedrooms on this floor are bright and airy, with ample closet space. A convenient washer-dryer and full-home Sonos surround sound are among the other highlights. ?? ?

Midtown East | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Midtown West and Midtown East have a lot in common. They’re bustling, iconic, and full of people. But just like siblings, their personalities can be vastly different. Midtown East is a bit more sophisticated and doesn’t quite have the vivacity and unruliness that its westerly counterpart exudes. 

Midtown East is bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 5th Avenue to the west, and 3rd Avenue to the east. 

The neighborhood is famous for its high-end stores, tourist attractions, posh hotels (budget ones too), and iconic architecture. Midtown East is also one of the largest financial and business hubs in Manhattan. During normal business hours the sidewalks are full of commuters and people moving from point A to point B. In the early evening, when the masses have left for the day, things suddenly get a little quieter and the sidewalks have a lot less foot traffic.  

Although largely a commercial neighborhood, residential areas of Midtown East do exist on the eastern section of the neighborhood. 

Grand Central Station is located in Midtown East and like Midtown West, it’s an extremely commutable neighborhood. The 4, 5, 6, 7 and S trains whisk people in and out of the neighborhood 24 hours a day. Grand Central Station also serves as a hub for New York State and Connecticut commuter rails. These trains can take you anywhere along the Hudson River or up into Connecticut. It’s perfect for day tripping.
