Property Description for 1001 Park Ave, 6-S
A Shining Jewel in Park Avenue's Crown! Rarely does a trophy apartment this grand and this exceptional become available for purchase on Park Avenue at such an ideal location! Occupying over half a floor, this sprawling 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 2,500 square foot residence enjoys incredibly open dual exposures both south and west. Flooded with natural light through 17 windows, the home flaunts panoramic Park Avenue views as well as directly overlooking the stunning spires of St. Ignatius Loyola Church.
In all ways, this residence embodies the features that makes prewar architecture so coveted and so impossible to replicate. One enters the home from a semi-private landing (shared with only one neighbor) into an elegant entrance gallery from which the rest of the residence radiates and where one first encounters the stunning hardwood herringbone floors that one finds throughout. Continue through dramatic double doors into the living room, which truly earns the title of a great room with its 33' x 20' dimensions, striking oversized windows framing open city views, soaring 11-foot ceilings, and one of the home's two original wood burning fireplaces. Directly adjacent to the living room is the home's dining room, which flaunts similarly grand proportions (20' x 20') and an additional wood burning fireplace. Each of the home's three full bathrooms is windowed, adding to its appeal.
The home's layout offers tremendous flexibility. For example, the windowed eat-in kitchen can easily be expanded to incorporate the adjacent butler's pantry, doubling its size. The apartment is further enhanced by an in-unit washer/dryer and a private storage room in the basement.
Built in 1928 and designed by Pleasants Pennington and Albert W. Lewis for the T. E. Rhoades Company, 1001 Park Avenue is a stately building with white glove service and timeless appeal. Pets are permitted, as is up to 50% financing.

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.
