Property Description for 770 Park Ave, 2-D
VIDEO AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST Ideally situated at the corner of 73rd Street and Park Avenue, 770 Park is one of Rosario Candela's most sought after and prestigious white-glove cooperative buildings. Built in 1930 with an exquisite original lobby designed by the iconic Dorothy Draper, these rarely available residences are coveted for their magnificently scaled rooms and grand proportions, which are perfectly suited for both elegant entertaining and gracious living. The impressive grandeur, quality and style of this light and bright, high second floor 8 into 7 room apartment must be seen to be fully appreciated
Accessed via a semi private elevator landing, the foyer of this sprawling apartment opens up to a dramatic 30 foot gallery connecting the formal dining room on one end to the living room on the other. The expansive 30 foot long corner living room with three over-sized windows, features a wood burning fireplace and soaring 10 foot ceilings with lovely views north onto verdant East 73rd Street, as well as enchanting eastern views of the building's arched colonnade at a quiet setback from the street. A cozy library with a bar and full bathroom is accessed through handsome double doors and could serve as a forth bedroom. On the other end of the gallery is an elegant formal dining room, which is wrapped in gracefully curved custom glass fronted cabinetry.
The square and spacious master bedroom with an exquisite marble bath en suite, is pin drop quiet, and has access to a serene planted terrace. There are two additional bedrooms each with a full bathroom and lovely light.
Beyond the formal dining room is a large, sun filled chef's kitchen with a dining area and built-in banquette, two sinks, wine coolers, top of the line appliances by Sub Zero, Wolf and Miele, an abundance of cabinet space and adjacent laundry room. Throughout the apartment, there are beautiful hardwood floors, over-sized new windows, soaring ceilings, ample closets, custom cabinetry and four exposures providing an abundance of light throughout the day.
The building features full time white glove service, a resident manager and a gym.

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.
