Property Description for 815 Park Ave, 4-A

This distinguished 1917 Park Avenue co-operative seven into six room home awaits your design and vision. A recent comprehensive restoration has just been completed that includes new electrical wiring and plumbing lines along with newly laid quarter sawn white oak herringbone floors and new Thermopane windows throughout. This apartment will require a kitchen update, as well as new bathroom fixtures and finishes though the infrastructure is in place, enabling the buyer to create their own aesthetic and design.

The elegant floorplan offers an entry foyer off of a semi-private landing, two bedrooms with en-suite baths, a wonderfully open and spacious 22 ft. by 34 ft. entertaining space with wood burning fireplace, bright windowed kitchen and staff room or office with an opportunity for a third bath. The corner A line at 815 Park Avenue is distinctive for having solely Park Avenue and 75th Street facing rooms offering light and city views through its over-sized windows- no courtyard or internal views.

815 Park Avenue is a classically elegant and discreet co-operative that offers a 24 hour doorman, resident building manager, personal storage, and a brand new state-of-the-art fitness and recreation room for residents.

Upper East Side | Manhattan

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.
