Expertly renovated to the highest standards, this apartment showcases impeccable craftsmanship, including the use of lyme plaster and paint, meticulously applied by European artisans under Mr. Vervoordt's direction. The residence is further highlighted by generously proportioned windows that offer breathtaking views of Park Avenue from every major room, soaring ceilings over 10 feet in height, and five elegant fireplaces. A semi-private elevator landing opens to the gracious Gallery, anchored by an elegantly curving staircase. The impressive corner Living Room, Dining Room, and Library are arranged in a seamless enfilade, all with expansive Park Avenue outlooks. The Living and Dining Rooms both have imported 18th-century parquet floors, and all three feature gas fireplaces. Nearby, a sleek chef's kitchen features custom stainless-steel cabinets and countertops. From the Gallery a coat closet and a Powder Room are conveniently accessible. The Upper Level, private and luxurious, boasts a generous corner Primary Bedroom clad entirely in goatskin parchment leather and is bathed throughout the day with southern and western sunlight. The adjacent spa-like bathroom is outfitted with double sinks, a separate shower, and a soaking tub. Two additional Bedrooms, each feature their own fireplaces (one is currently concealed but can easily be restored to its original form, should the new owner desire). Additionally, there are two full bathrooms, a laundry room, and very ample closets. The Lancashire is a Neo-Renaissance masterpiece, built in 1910 by architect Walter B. Chambers. This coveted, white-glove cooperative incorporates only 18 residences and offers unmatched privacy and service. Rich in history and architectural integrity and featuring an exceptional and glorious design aesthetic, this magnificent residence is a delight in every way. Please note, the apartment trades with 2 staff rooms. Pets allowed. Flip Tax 2%. Co-Exclusive.
