480 PARK Ave 8G

Situated in one of Park Avenue's most esteemed pre-war cooperatives, perfectly located at the crossroads of the Upper East Side and the most prestigious part of midtown, this elegant 7 room apartment offers approximately 2200 square feet of extraordinary space, with grand proportions and plenty of opportunities for customization.

The spacious entry gallery features a vaulted ceiling and opens to an impressive, light-filled living room, with 10-foot ceilings, herringbone pattern hardwood floors, 3 oversized south-facing windows, and a wood-burning fireplace. At the other end of the gallery is the dining room, which opens to a wood-paneled library. These rooms could be combined to create a grand formal dining room, the original layout of the apartment. Adjacent to the dining room is a large eat-in kitchen, with extensive storage, a washer and dryer, and a convenient service entrance. A generous staff room (or home office) has an ensuite bath and is just off of the library.

The tranquil and bright bedrooms are ideally located in a private wing, separated from the rest of the apartment by a spacious hallway with a large walk-in cedar closet. Each of the two bedrooms has splendid south facing windows and extensive storage space. The grandly scaled primary suite has a huge cedar-lined walk-in closet, and an enormous marble-clad bath featuring two separate sinks and vanities, a walk-in shower, separate bathtub, and a window. The secondary bedroom also features a walk-in cedar closet and a windowed marble bath.
