Property Description for 737 Park Ave, 2-B

Apartment 2B is a light filled, generously sized corner 3 bedroom, 3 and a half bathroom home with a home office. With its iconic West and South treeline views onto Park Avenue and the very charming 71st Street, its oversized living room and generous split bedroom layout, the apartment is a graceful modern residence in a prime Park Avenue location. A formal foyer leads to the generously proportioned, bright living room overlooking Park Avenue with its famous tulip gardens. The dining area is large enough to seat a large dinner party. A media room/den is conveniently located adjacent to the great room and the recessed, open kitchen and can also be used as a large dining area instead. The beautiful white custom Italian kitchen offers elegant features throughout, such as marble countertops and backsplashes, integrated Miele appliances, and Franke sinks and faucets. There is a tremendous amount of cabinetry for storage as well as a generous kitchen counter with breakfast bar. There is a separate laundry room with Miele washer and dryer. The privately located, oversized primary bedroom suite with exposure to Park Avenue has wonderful closet space, including two “dressing room”closets. The luxurious marble bathroom features double sinks, a glass walled shower and deep soaking tub. The two secondary bedrooms are located on the south facing wing of this residence. One bedroom has a beautiful corner exposure over Park Avenue and tree-lined 71st Street. It features a large closet, and a windowed en-suite bathroom. The other bedroom also features its own en-suite bathroom and a peaceful, sunny south exposure onto 71st Street. An additional well-sized home office is large to also serve as a media or play room. Additional features are beautiful wood floors, central AC, a powder room and a second (service) entrance. With its seasoned staff and stunning Park Avenue art deco lobby, 737 Park Avenue distinguishes itself as a unique combination of perfect elements and will remain a property with enduring value in every way. The location is perfection - 2 blocks from the prettiest part of Central Park, and a very short stroll to coffee at Ralph Lauren, Via Quadronno or Sant Ambroeus, lunches and dinners at The Mark or Majorelle. Leisurely walks window shopping on Madison Avenue or last minute visits to The Frick or Metropolitan Museum are part of everyday life if you live at 737 Park. 737 Park Avenue is a full-service condominium with a 24-hour doorman, porter, elevator attendants and live-in resident manager. Amenities include an extraordinary skylit private gym facility, children’s playroom, a garden room with catering kitchen and adjoining courtyard, bicycle/stroller storage and individual storage bins available for purchase.

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.
