Property Description for 799 Park Ave, 8-A

A Rare Park Avenue Classic Six - Graciously Proportioned, Thoughtfully Reimagined.

Perfectly positioned on the eighth floor of one of Park Avenue's most established cooperatives, Residence 8A is a beautifully renovated Classic Six that seamlessly blends timeless Manhattan elegance with the comforts of modern living. Offering three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a formal dining room, a home office or media room, a custom eat-in kitchen, and a gracious entry foyer and gallery, the home is defined by an extraordinary sense of scale rarely found today.

At the heart of the residence is an impressive entertaining span stretching nearly 50 feet from the living room through the gallery and dining room and into the office, creating a flow that feels both expansive and inviting. A welcoming foyer introduces the home before opening into the principal rooms, where custom millwork, wainscoting, built-in window seating, and integrated speakers across four zones reflect the quality and thoughtfulness of the renovation.

The living room is anchored by a decorative fireplace and enhanced by a concealed projector system with 119" screen that descends from the ceiling, creating an ideal setting for both intimate evenings and larger gatherings. Oversized double-paned windows frame picturesque, tree-lined views down Park Avenue, bringing beautiful and abundant natural light and seasonal charm throughout the year. Adjacent, the formal dining room features a wet bar with refrigerated drawers and offers an elegant backdrop for entertaining.

The bedroom wing provides exceptional privacy. The primary suite enjoys the same coveted Park Avenue overlook and features a beautifully appointed en-suite bath with oversized shower. Two additional bedrooms overlook a neighboring historic church, offering peaceful and picturesque views rarely found in Manhattan. The eat-in kitchen is equally functional and inviting, thoughtfully designed for everything from morning coffee to weekend hosting.

While the building is postwar in construction, the residence has been renovated with the character and warmth of a classic prewar home. Rich architectural detailing, abundant crown moldings, pocket doors, carefully selected finishes, and timeless design elements create an atmosphere that feels both sophisticated and welcoming. Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Bosch appliances are complemented by an in-unit washing machine and vented dryer.

799 Park Avenue is a full-service cooperative offering white-glove service with a resident superintendent and full-time doorman and elevator attendants. Residents enjoy a beautifully landscaped private garden, recently renovated fitness center, luggage storage, bike storage, and laundry facilities. The building has also completed extensive capital improvements, including upgrades to the lobby, hallways, elevator interiors and mechanicals, and building systems. Garage parking is available on a waitlist basis.

Located in the heart of the Upper East Side, the residence is moments from Central Park, Museum Mile, Madison Avenue boutiques, and some of New York City's most celebrated restaurants, and cultural institutions, and independent schools. It is also situated within the coveted P.S. 6 district.

Pied-à-terres are permitted, pets are welcome, and financing of up to 50% is allowed. A 3% flip tax is 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.
