Property Description for 1133 Park Ave, 8-E
Naked on Park Avenue
This Classic Seven, 1924 beauty has undergone a complete and total restoration and is ready for prime time. Every surface has been refined and buffed to perfection giving 8E the pristine, never-lived-in quality of brand new, with the architectural integrity of prewar.
This gracious and well-laid out seven room home is being presented empty — with no furniture or decorative accents to detract from its beautiful details and great bones.
Enter 8E from a semi-private landing. A hallway leads to an elegant foyer flanked by the living room to the left, formal dining room to the right, and bedroom wing straight ahead. The living room faces north over beautiful private homes with views of Park Avenue. Seamless built-ins artfully enhance the space while providing storage and display opportunities. The dining room features a show stopping Murano glass chandelier, custom built-ins with glass fronts and seating, plus a pass through to the kitchen. The kitchen boasts solid wood painted cabinetry with glass fronts matching those in the dining room, granite countertops, Artemide lighting, and Miele, Bosch and Liebherr appliances. A windowed home office / laundry room with stacked Miele washer/dryer and full bath can be accessed from the dining room.
The primary bedroom has views north and east over 91st Street townhouses, two large closets, and an ensuite windowed bathroom with Horus faucets and gorgeous honed marble sink top. Head down the hall to find two additional bedrooms. The larger with south and east exposures, custom bookshelves, and a closet. The third bedroom faces east and features an integrated storage and closet system. A shared windowed bathroom with white subway tiles and pedestal sink is neatly tucked between the two chambers.
Newly refinished hardwood floors, impressive crown and base moldings, and original brass doorknobs on display throughout are among the lovely touches that contribute to the overall ambiance of this sprawling yet intimate home. The generous closet space extends to a storage bin in the basement that transfers with the apartment.
Built in 1924, 1133 Park Avenue is a full-service, pet friendly, boutique cooperative ideally located on the southeast corner of 91st Street. The building is surrounded by some of New York's best museums, shops, restaurants, public and private schools, and is two blocks from Central Park, the Reservoir and the 92nd Street Y.
If 8E looks this great in the buff, just wait til you dress it up.
