985 Park Ave APT 4/5

Move right into this incredibly special 3 bedroom/3 bathroom condominium in the heart of the Upper East Side. Bathed in natural light, the apartment feels like a townhouse in the sky overlooking Park Avenue with charming treetop views of the Church of St. Ignatius Loyola, a historic landmark celebrated for its striking Neoclassical and Baroque Revival architecture. Available for the first time since its 2006 completion, the residence was hand-selected by the original owner, who had the rare opportunity to choose from multiple units and selected this one for its ideal elevation and open views. A private key-locked elevator opens into an elegant entry gallery that flows seamlessly into a spacious living room with a decorative fireplace and oversized windows facing Park Avenue. The gracious formal dining room (currently configured as a library/den) faces east and lends itself to both elegant entertaining and easy, everyday living. The windowed eat-in kitchen is beautifully appointed with top-of-the-line appliances, generous storage and a rare and highly convenient feature: a private built-in trash chute. Upstairs, the bedroom level boasts 3 bedrooms with the oversized primary suite facing Park Avenue. This bright and spacious retreat offers a walk-in closet, an additional wall of custom closets, and a luxurious en-suite bath complete with heated floors, a soaking tub and separate glass-enclosed shower. The second and third bedrooms face east and share a bathroom. Additional highlights include an in-unit washer/dryer, floor-to-ceiling windows, electric shades, central air, and custom moldings throughout. Built in 2006, this boutique, full service condominium has a 24 hr doorman, full-time resident manager, private storage and offers the ease of condo ownership in a neighborhood largely known for co-ops. This coveted location is close to the best schools (both public and private), all major transportation and just two blocks from Central Park and Museum Mile. 1% Transfer Fee paid by buyer.
