799 Park Avenue Unit 19-BC

About this home

Prominently featured in Architectural Digest and impeccably transformed by celebrated architect and designer Russell Groves, this exceptional home spans approximately 3,500 sq. ft. offering 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths with two private terraces. Sweeping views of Park Avenue, the city skyline, and Central Park greet you at every turn. The home's thoughtful layout offers the flexibility of a third or fourth bedroom without compromising an ounce of its design or character. The main level unfolds as a seamless sequence of living and entertaining spaces. A travertine-clad entry foyer with two walk-in closets sets an immediate tone of understated refinement, opening into an expansive corner living and dining room bathed in southern and western light with direct access to a terrace with unobstructed views overlooking Park Avenue and Central Park. The kitchen and entertaining area with its own planted, auto-irrigated terrace flows naturally into a media room that can equally be reimagined as an additional bedroom. The exquisite kitchen is appointed with Calacatta marble counters, custom lacquered Boffi cabinetry, and a generous wall of north-facing windows flooding the space with light. Equipped with a Gaggenau six-burner cooktop with ceiling-mounted canopy, Gaggenau refrigerator, two side-by-side SubZero wine coolers, two Miele dishwashers, and a Miele double oven, no detail has been overlooked. A walk-in pantry with a second refrigerator, SubZero icemaker, cooling drawers, and abundant storage ensures nothing is ever out of reach. A sun-drenched breakfast alcove with an additional sink and extra refrigeration rounds out this dream kitchen. A private bedroom wing offers two generously proportioned west-facing guest bedrooms with open city views, each served by its own beautifully appointed en-suite bath with Travertine stone floors, Travertine stone walls, and travertine-top vanities one featuring a glass-enclosed rain-shower stall, the other a deep glass-enclosed soaking tub. A dedicated laundry room with motion-activated lighting, Miele washer and dryer, utility sink, and custom storage cabinetry completes this wing. A Control4 smart home system manages lighting, climate, and AV seamlessly. Lucifer custom recessed lighting, multi-zone central air conditioning, and electronic shades in every window ensure the home is as effortless to live in as it is beautiful. 799 Park Avenue is a distinguished white-glove cooperative with 24-hour doorman, elevator operator, resident manager, on-site parking, a beautifully landscaped garden, and a newly renovated fitness center all just two blocks from Central Park.
