23 PARK Avenue #1N

Residence 1N at the renowned 23 Park Avenue, a meticulously restored boutique co-op with just 17 residences was originally built by Stanford White in 1890 as a private mansion. This exceptional 2 Bedroom, 2.5 bathroom duplex offers approximately 1,800 sq. ft. of pristine interior living space along with an approximately 400 sq. ft. lush landscaped private garden.

The primary bedroom with en-suite marble bathroom offers a custom walk-in-closet, and a wall of glass doors leading to the private garden; while a spacious guest bedroom adorned with a custom Murphy Bed and clever shelving offers another massive walk-in-closet. All of the bathrooms in this home were luxuriously renovated with carefully selected Carrera marble, marble mosaics, sleek vanities and custom glass shower doors.

With both full-baths located on the lower level and the exceptional powder room located on the first level, the functionality of this duplex home could not be better. With far too many details to list, there is also excellent storage space. There is a Washer/Dryer hookup, but the current owner utilizes the Washer Dryer directly outside the apartment's second entrance on the lower level. Having undergone a nearly 2 year renovation in 2021, this apartment will not disappoint even the most discerning buyer.
