Property Details
Description
Welcome to a truly special Park Avenue residence that seamlessly blends classic pre-war elegance with thoughtful modern updates. This quiet corner two-bedroom, one-bath home sits in an intimate boutique building with just two apartments per floor, offering both privacy and exclusivity. A gracious entry foyer opens into an expansive living room with the scale to accommodate multiple seating areas—perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. Rich in character, the space is highlighted by a wood-burning fireplace with a handsome mantel, soaring 9.5-foot beamed ceilings, beautifully preserved herringbone hardwood floors, intricate moldings, and oversized windows for natural light. The chef’s kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, range, and integrated microwave, complemented by striking granite countertops and generous cabinetry. Just off the kitchen, a charming dining alcove easily seats six, creating an inviting setting for intimate dinners. The primary bedroom is exceptionally well-proportioned, featuring two large windows, a substantial walk-in closet, and a windowed en-suite bath. The second bedroom offers flexibility as a guest room, home office, or nursery. Additional highlights include a semi-private elevator landing, excellent closet space throughout, and a dedicated storage locker in the basement. Built in 1922 by the esteemed Fred F. French Company, 55 Park Avenue is a meticulously maintained boutique co-op offering full-service amenities, including a full-time doorman/elevator operator, live-in superintendent, and on-site laundry. Ideally positioned on a quiet, tree-lined stretch of Park Avenue, the building is just moments from Grand Central, providing seamless access to multiple subway lines, Metro-North, and crosstown transit. Residents enjoy close proximity to Bryant Park, as well as some of the city’s most treasured cultural landmarks, dining, and shopping destinations. Pied-à-terre use and pets are considered on a case-by-case basis, and a 2% flip tax is paid by the purchaser. (Please note: living room and bedroom images are virtually staged.)
