256 feet of private outdoor space.

The only 2-bedroom apartment at Park Avenue Place with a terrace. This elegant and bright half-floor 2BD/ 2BA, within one of the most prestigious buildings situated between Park & Madison Avenue, is a rare find.

On the 21st story at Park Avenue Place, you exit the elevator to find only two apartments on the floor. You are immediately welcomed into the property by the formal center hallway which introduces you to the thoughtful layout and the elegant design aesthetic of this home.

Incorporating a split layout, you are guided either to the western side of the apartment where you will find an elaborate primary bedroom suite with large five-fixture windowed bathroom, or to the eastern wing of the home where the main living/dining area, chef’s kitchen along with the secondary bedroom, also with its own ensuite bath, await you. Floor to ceiling windows in this portion of the apartment, complimented by high ceilings, enhance and frame the views from the living space and the flow of the unit makes it ideal for entertaining family, friends and business associates. The kitchen is perfect for preparing that perfect meal and large enough to enjoy a morning beverage at the breakfast bar while gazing out the south-facing window. The modern kitchen is equipped with high-end SubZero and Miele appliances including a wine cooler and a coffee machine. Full of natural light throughout, even the kitchen and master bathroom have gigantic windows. Storage Bin included 4' x 4' x 4.

Just two blocks away the City’s most high-end retail stores and restaurants including Ralph Lauren’s Polo Bar, La Grenouille and Casa Lever.
