Property Description for 525 Park Ave, PH-A

This stunning pre-war condominium penthouse represents New York City living at its finest.

Entering the penthouse through a private vestibule, one is greeted by a wide (24ft x 7ft) gallery featuring oversized windows facing north, south, and west onto an enormous wrap terrace that envelopes the apartment.

The interior of the apartment is in mint condition, with every detail has been meticulously crafted to create a seamless flow between rooms. The formal corner dining room is the perfect place to host dinner parties. The eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream, with top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry, and finishes which surround an oversized marble-topped center island.

This immaculate penthouse has eight generously proportioned rooms, including three bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a formal dining room, a corner living room, an eat-in kitchen, and a stately wood-paneled library. This apartment also features a laundry room and flexible space, perfect for a home gym or office. For those who love to entertain, PHA is a dream come true; the spacious living room and dining room offer ample space for guests, while the terrace provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining and cocktails.

The apartment's crown jewel is its expansive (over 2,300 square feet!) wraparound terrace, which provides breathtaking views of the city skyline and a peaceful outdoor escape. An irrigation system is in place to maintain the beautiful array of plants that line the perimeter of the terrace to create a sense of nature and privacy. The terrace is also wired for electrical and has beautiful lighting installed. Whether you're relaxing with a book or hosting a soire, the terrace is the perfect place to do it all.

The arrangement of bedrooms is equally as excellent, with the primary bedroom accessible to the left of the penthouse entrance through a cozy, paneled library. The spacious bedroom features beautiful walk-in closets and an ensuite bath. Just down the hall, there are two well-appointed bedrooms, each with its own bath. These rooms could be maintained as bedrooms, or transformed into a home office/guestroom. Additionally, the powder room is tucked away off the entrance hall in just the right place.

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.
