784 Park Ave, 19-A

A gem is known for its brilliance and how light plays on its precise angles; an apt description for this NEW TO THE MARKET, PREWAR, PARK AVENUE, two-bedroom home.

The eat in kitchen, 17'10"x 10'10, ideal for gourmet chefs, is warm and wonderful, with three windows, high end professional appliances, built in pantry and desk, custom wood cabinetry, richly detailed granite counters, European style floors, and service entrance.

Stunning entry gallery, over 22' long, is central to the home, and detailed with beautifully milled and outfitted closets.
