120 E 87TH Street #R14F

Welcome to Park Avenue Court, one of the Upper East Side's most prestigious condominium buildings, in the heart of Carnegie Hill. Residence 14F, located on the riverside part of the building, features soaring 14-foot ceilings, abundant natural light pouring through south-facing windows, and an open view. This two-bedroom, two-bathroom home blends modern, elegant finishes with a distinctive European flair. Imagine your mornings beginning with coffee in your beautifully appointed kitchen, featuring a striking blue agate quartz backsplash with LED accent lighting, custom floor-to-ceiling white cabinetry for abundant storage, Caesarstone countertops, Bosch stainless steel appliances, a five-burner gas range, and a Kraus deep sink. The apartment flows effortlessly from one space to the next, making entertaining and quiet nights at home equally easy to enjoy. The expansive living space invites you to gather, settle in with a book, or simply enjoy the light and extraordinary ceiling height. White oak hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and bespoke finishes bring warmth to the home's dramatic proportions. Large soundproof windows offer a quiet retreat from the city, with custom electric shades ready when it's time to wind down. At the end of the day, your generously sized primary suite offers a peaceful place to recharge. A spacious walk-in closet provides ample wardrobe storage, while the spa-inspired en-suite bathroom features high-end modern finishes, designer tilework, and a soaking tub/shower combination. A washer/dryer within the bathroom adds everyday convenience. The second bedroom, complete with deep custom built-ins, offers a welcoming space for overnight guests or a dedicated workspace. The beautifully renovated second bathroom features a large walk-in shower and an oversized vanity. Glance up the glass-enclosed staircase and find an approximately 400-square-foot bonus space giving you even more room to make this home your own. Imagine a private home office, a cozy media room, or a creative retreat, with substantial hidden storage to keep everything organized. (This upper-level space is not included in the stated square footage.) The home's distinctive proportions are part of Park Avenue Court's architectural story. Originally built as a Gimbels department store in 1972 and converted into residences in 1989 by world-renowned architecture firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, this grand 17-story building houses 219 loft-like homes with layouts ranging from studios to seven-bedroom residences. Life here at Park Avenue Court extends well beyond your apartment. A full-time doorman and concierge welcome you home as you enter on the street level. There is a formal lobby located on the 2nd level of the building with an outdoor courtyard. You will also enjoy a private health club with an indoor swimming pool, fully equipped gym, and yoga room. Additional amenities include: children's playroom, bicycle room, basement storage and garage (pending availability). The Central Park Reservoir, the Guggenheim and The Met are only 2 1/2 blocks away. Whole Foods is 1 block east. Let Carnegie Hill become part of your everyday routine-from walks along tree-lined streets to afternoons exploring neighborhood cultural institutions-with a spacious, light-filled home waiting when you return.
