Property Description for 785 Park Ave, 9-A

Meticulously gut-renovated and decorated by a renowned AD100 designer and respected contractor, this move-in ready triple-mint two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom Park Avenue home offers elegant, comfortable living with the highest quality details in a premier Upper East Side location. Located on a high floor in a white-glove, prewar co-op on the corner of 73rd and Park Avenue, the home enjoys natural sunlight throughout the day from three exposures: east, north, and south. One enters this well-laid-out home through a generous foyer, which features a sizable coat closet, a chic, wallpapered powder room, and sight lines through the living room to an extensive bank of south-facing windows overlooking landmarked townhouses on East 73rd Street. Adjacent to the living room is a bright dining room, complete with a custom built-in bar constructed with striking dark marble countertops, a mirrored glass tile backsplash, and a wine fridge. The windowed kitchen features white, premium natural quartz countertops, a white subway tile backsplash, classic cork flooring, Miele appliances, two Dacor ovens, and a cozy seating area by the window. An abundance of counter space and storage make this an ideal kitchen for any chef. The bedrooms are separated from the living quarters by a Quadrille “Lyford Trellis” wallpapered hall, flanked by cedar storage closets. The oversized primary bedroom has a corner exposure (south and east) and easily accommodates a California king-size bed, desk, and seating area. Additionally, the bedroom includes built-in storage beneath the windows and two large fitted closets. Separated from the bedroom by a pocket door, the spacious ensuite primary bathroom is clad in Calacatta marble and features a walk-in shower with a built-in marble bench, an oversized vanity, Waterworks fixtures and sconces, a Toto toilet, and NuHeat radiant heated floors. The large second bedroom also has a corner exposure (east and north) and is tastefully designed with grasscloth wallpaper, a custom jute carpet, and cabinetry including a substantial fitted closet. The ensuite bathroom is clad in matching Calacatta marble and features a new bathtub, vanity, Toto Toilet, Waterworks fixtures, and a cleverly concealed Asko washer and dryer beneath a marble laundry station. The home has undergone new waterproofing, soundproofing, and electrical wiring, making all television electrical/cable wires invisible. New Ice-Air through-wall AC units, concealed by custom millwork, are controlled by Honeywell digital thermostats. Additional features include high beamed ceilings, classically proportioned baseboards, crown moldings, and meticulously restored hardwood floors. 785 Park Avenue is a full-service cooperative with a charming planted roof deck, a fully equipped fitness room, a laundry room, private storage (there is currently a waitlist), and bike storage ($250 per year). Pets, pied-a-terres, and 50% financing are permitted, with a 2% flip tax that is paid by the purchaser. Situated on one of the Upper East Side’s most beautiful blocks, 785 Park Avenue is just moments from Central Park, the city's finest restaurants, shops, museums, and schools (both private and public).

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.
