Located in a storied Upper East Side Park Avenue pre-war, coop building, and beyond a semi-private elevator landing, is an elegant classic six home. High ceilings and beams, and rich herringbone oak floors are just two of the prewar details found throughout the property. Upon entry into the apartment, one is immediately wowed by the grand, Venetian plastered gallery with a spectacular domed ceiling, that stretches all of the way to the living room, and provides the perfect setting for an art collection. The expansive, sunny living room faces East on Park Avenue and boasts a wood burning fireplace. The adjacent, spacious dining room currently serves as a den/library lined with bookshelves and an entertainment unit, and opens into a windowed office and a half bathroom. A large eat in, windowed kitchen, in tandem with a beautiful custom mahogany and marble bar, provides the perfect backdrop for gracious dining and entertaining. A washer and dryer is provided within the kitchen. The master bedroom, which faces Park Avenue, is large enough for a California king sized bed and multiple pieces of additional furniture. A walk in closet and additional closet provide great custom storage options. The windowed master bathroom with latticework tile boasts a club footed soaking tub, as well as a built in dressing table with hidden storage. The second bedroom, also east facing, has a wall of custom cherry builtins perfect for storage, alongside a walk-in closet. While this bedroom currently functions as an office and guest room, it would work equally well as a traditional bedroom. An adjoining bathroom, with rich neutral marble and mosaic tile has a stall shower and another window east onto Park. This unique, sunny and stunning home has pocket doors throughout, multiple walk-in closets, and exquisite custom millwork, and works equally well for family living and for stylish entertaining. A storage unit is provided with the sale of the apartment. Built in 1923 by the legendary architect J.E.R. Carpenter, 1050 Park Avenue is one of Park Avenue's finest cooperatives.

This pet friendly building offers top service and amenities with 24 hour doormen, elevator attendants, and a live-in resident manager. Private storage, bicycle storage, and an excellent fitness room are included. The building requires 50% financing and has a 2% flip tax.
