Beautiful southern light fills the living room and bedroom wing of the home while showcasing pretty tree-lined side block views as well as lush views of Park Avenue and its meticulously landscaped malls throughout the seasons from oversized windows. Contemporary comforts include fully renovated eat-in kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, laundry, through wall air conditioning, en-suite baths, full apartment water filtration system, and an extraordinary amount of closet storage. Elegant old-world original details include high ceilings, herringbone hardwood floors, a woodburning fireplace with original hearth of Italian Portoro Gold marble, gorgeous solid oak doors, pristine crown and baseboard moldings and an extended 16' formal gallery with original cedar coat closet that offers a distinct elegance. The gracious layout features a well-planned formal entertaining expanse with an oversized living room spanning 28 feet with a wood-burning fireplace, a spacious formal dining room, and a large entry gallery with powder room between them creating a wonderful flow for guests. The stunning eat-in chef's kitchen was fully outfitted and is highly functional for both entertaining and casual dining with a great layout for cooking.

To the delight of every level cook, top-of-the-line stainless appliances include Sub Zero refrigerator and two separate freezer drawers, Wolf 6-burner gas range oven with Wolf professional vented hood, Miele dishwasher, Miele stainless washer and dryer, and garbage disposal. A home office area completes the space. A private resident's wing features two sun-filled spacious bedrooms (one primary) with south-facing windows framing the pretty treelined block, en-suite bathrooms, and generous storage including two deep walk-in closets. The third bedroom on the north side of the apartment features a large double-door closet, two windows, and can easily serve as a home office or guest suite with adjacent full bathroom, if desired. Built in 1930 by one of the most esteemed architects in Manhattan, Rosario Candela, the 19-story building is an excellent example of the subtle yet luxurious designs that made Candela famous. Today, architectural critics ceaselessly cite the benefits of Candela's buildings and apartment buyers seek out the structures that bear his name.

Pets are permitted. 50% financing, 3% flip tax.
