Property Description

A grand Park Avenue residence, offered for the first time in generations, with leafy views and a prime location just moments from The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Central Park.Beautifully proportioned and rich in prewar character, this former classic seven is now configured as an expansive six-room home with nearly ten-foot ceilings, elegant crown moldings and beautifully preserved architectural detail. The entertaining rooms are particularly generous: a large living room centered on a fireplace, which can be converted back to wood-burning with board approval, and a formal dining room of substantial proportions, both overlooking the tree-lined avenue. The principal rooms are filled with soft natural light and a changing canopy of greenery. A Sonos sound system extends throughout the home.Three bedrooms and two windowed bathrooms provide excellent separation and privacy. The primary suite includes a windowed en-suite bath with heated floors and extensive closet space.The original maid’s room has been incorporated into the kitchen, creating an exceptionally large windowed eat-in kitchen, approximately 17'10" x 20'. It is equipped with a Wolf range and convection oven, an exterior-vented Wolf hood, Wolf warming drawer, farmhouse sink, Sub-Zero refrigeration with an additional double-drawer freezer, and a Miele dishwasher. A Miele washer and dryer are discreetly integrated into the kitchen.Two unusually large private basement storage rooms, approximately 9' x 13'6" and 11' x 6', are included in the sale.Designed by George and Edward Blum, 840 Park Avenue is a white-glove cooperative offering exceptional service and privacy. Museum Mile is moments away, with the boutiques, cafés and restaurants of Madison Avenue close by.
