Description

Soaring loft-like proportions and wide-open west-facing views fill this exceptional studio home, beautifully located in an amenity-rich, full-service building featuring a pool and courtyards in the heart of Carnegie Hill. Inside this bright and airy high-floor sanctuary, ceilings rise 14 feet high over hardwood floors and expansive walls, perfect for your prized art collection. The large living area provides a generous footprint for seating, dining, sleeping and home office areas alongside sunset views that skim over the neighboring rooftops. The well-appointed Pullman kitchen features excellent cabinet space and stainless steel appliances, including a cooktop, refrigerator, dishwasher and built-in microwave. In the full bathroom, you'll find a large tub/shower, roomy vanity and wide medicine cabinet surrounded by floor-to-ceiling tile. Frosted glass barn doors reveal two extra-large closets with built-in shelving systems, adding excellent storage to this stunning Upper East Side sanctuary. Welcome to Park Avenue Court, a respected full-service building that once housed an uptown outpost of Gimbels department store. Converted to condominium by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in 1989, the prized, pet-friendly enclave offers residents a wonderful array of services and amenities, including full-time doorman and concierge attendants, an on-site resident manager, a renovated lobby, a fitness center with a swimming pool and yoga room, a children's playroom, a bike room, basement storage, upper and lower courtyard gardens, and an on-site parking garage. This sought-after Carnegie Hill location surrounds you with world-class shopping, dining, entertainment and outdoor space. Spend the day along the Museum Mile or explore Central Park two blocks west. Enjoy direct access to luxury boutiques, popular cafés and convenient stores, including Whole Foods and Fairway Market. Transportation options abound with 4/5/6 and Q trains, excellent bus service, CitiBike stations, and the FDR all nearby.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
