BREATHTAKING VIEWS With Wrap Terrace & Six Bedrooms
Open City Views with Six Bedrooms Soaring high above the streets of Carnegie Hill, this six-bedroom, 4,775-square-foot condominium is a sophisticated oasis with an enviable 2,725-square-foot wraparound terrace offering dramatic views in all directions. In the creation of this peerless residence? which has served as the set for numerous films and television programs? noted architect Steven Harris combined three apartments, resulting in a space that is remarkably generous in scale and timeless in style.
The Terrace Crafted from ipe wood and hand-selected environmentally friendly synthetic materials, the incomparable terrace is the pièce de résistance of the home. A terrace lover?s dream, it features space for alfresco lounging and dining, an outdoor shower, vibrant landscaping with timed custom lighting and irrigation, charcoal and electric grills, and a fence custom-designed by Wes Martel and Ethan Ames that provides safety without interrupting the view.
PRIVATE ELEVATOR LANDING
The Interior Enter through the private elevator landing and striking decorative doors inspired by 1920s Parisian designs. Here, a south-facing floor-to-ceiling window reveals a stunning vista of the city skyline, including the Empire State Building. Throughout, floor-to-ceiling windows admit floods of glorious natural light during the day and allow many rooms to bask in sweeping views of sunrises, sunsets, the sparkling city skyline, and the lush expanse of Central Park.
Living and Dining Ceilings soar to heights of 12 feet, storage is impressively plentiful, and the deeply hued hardwood floors have a refined sheen. The flow between formal living and dining spaces is effortless, and this configuration has made the home perfect for many a grand gathering and festive fête in recent years. The living room features a built-in window seat designed for up-close appreciation of the dramatic views, and the dining room opens to the terrace? as do most public spaces. Nearby are a hidden wet bar by Engberg Design and a powder room, both paneled in rich, handsome wood.
LIVING ROOM
Chef's Eat-in Kitchen The roomy eat-in kitchen is equipped with two refrigerators and dishwashers as well as a wine refrigerator. The adjoining great room is awash with sunlight during the day, and with two sets of glass doors accessing the terrace, it is ideal for relaxed indoor-outdoor gatherings at any hour.
The Bedrooms Private quarters encompass five guest bedrooms? each appointed with built-ins that include desks, cabinets, drawers, and clever liftable window seats offering storage space? and a primary suite with an expansive walk-in closet, a light-filled dressing room, and a spa-like bath. The busy professional will appreciate the inclusion of the den, a study with bookcases, and desks in the great room; one bedroom with a built-in desk currently serves as auxiliary office space. Other highlights include electric blinds in many rooms, a five-zone central heating and air-conditioning system, and two sizable storage units located on lower floors.
The Building Park Avenue Court Condominium offers an array of amenities, including an indoor swimming pool, a top-tier gym, a private lobby-level terrace, a round-the-clock door attendant and concierge, a resident manager, and storage. There is an adjacent parking garage. Pets are welcome. The desirable location in the heart of Carnegie Hill affords proximity to scores of schools, popular restaurants, markets, and boutiques and a variety of transportation options. Real estate taxes reflect a primary resident?s tax abatement.
