Old World Elegance Meets Contemporary Sophistication in this Classic 8 Converted into a Sprawling 7! With absolutely no detail overlooked, this meticulously renovated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom residence is a marvel of elegant design, graceful lines, and exquisite prewar details. Top-of-the-line fixtures, finishes, and fittings throughout meld to create a supremely functional space. Upon entering the home from a semi-private landing (only two apartments per floor), one progresses through the foyer into the airy gallery that anchors the home and from which all its rooms radiate. The home's sprawling living room boasts pristine herringbone hardwood floors, a wood burning fireplace, and a multitude of beautiful features that one finds throughout the home, including casement windows, crown and baseboard moldings, and tall ceilings. The home's expansive eat-in kitchen was created by combining the original kitchen, the butler's pantry, and one of two maid's rooms, yielding a space worthy of the most discerning home chef. It flaunts smartly-designed custom cabinetry, ample countertop space, a dining island, and a full suite of high-end appliances including a restaurant-quality La Cornue range handcrafted in France, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine cooler, and a washer/dryer. The home is further enhanced by 2.5 spa-caliber renovated bathrooms, a formal dining room currently being used as a den, a maid's room, a private storage space, an attractive monthly maintenance, and central A/C in all rooms except for two bedrooms, both of which have brand new PTAC units. 1088 Park Avenue, erected in 1925, is one of the most prestigious and architecturally significant buildings in Carnegie Hill. Designed by Mott B. Schmidt, the lauded architect for the Astor, Moran, and Vanderbilt families, and built in the neo-Classical style, the building is distinguished by a three-story limestone base; an arched, two-story, grand canopied entrance; a vaulted lobby; and at its center, a large Italianate courtyard garden. This white glove, pet-friendly cooperative offers residents a fitness center, a bike room, and the highest level of service from its large, impeccably trained staff. Up to 50% financing permitted, and 2% flip tax paid by buyer.
