Property Description for 785 Park Ave, 14-A

Contemporary meets classic on Park Avenue

Apartment 14A at 785 Park Avenue is a gut-renovated two bedroom, two-and-a-half bathroom home full with Parisian flair and cheer throughout. This sunny residence has tasteful high-end details and fixtures as well as has south, east, and north exposures.

A spacious entry gallery provides thoughtful separation between every part of the home, and has generously-sized art walls while the foyer walls are adorned in a visually appealing geometric design. A bright powder room transports you straight to Paris thanks to the stunning illustration on the walls. The expansive living room has recessed lighting amidst the ceiling beams, and faces south through the 6 lite colonial grille windows. There is an open flow directly into the dining room, allowing for a perfect set up to host and entertain. The pass-through windowed kitchen is accessible from both ends, and features high-end appliances including a Wolf range and a concealed Sub-Zero refrigerator. There is also an in-unit stacked Bosch washer and dryer, and direct access to the service hallway.

A separate corridor off the foyer leads towards the stylish bedrooms and is surrounded by an array of closets. The corner primary bedroom suite has an ensuite bathroom with a double vanity and a standing shower, while the secondary bedroom also has a large ensuite bathroom with a bathtub and a walk-in closet. Both bedrooms have double exposures and every room in the home has custom built-ins beneath the windows, allowing for an efficient use of storage.

There is a storage unit that is included in the sale of the unit and is conveniently located right outside of the apartment in the service hallway.

785 Park Avenue is a full-service co-op built in 1940 and lodged on one of the most ideal blocks of Park Avenue. There is a landscaped roof deck overlooking some of New York's most iconic apartment buildings, both new and old. Additional amenities include a fully equipped fitness room, a central laundry room, private storage, and bike storage. There is full-time doorman and the building permits pets, pied-a-terres, and 50% financing. The flip tax is 2% and payable by the purchaser.

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.
