One enters this one-of-a-kind apartment on the second floor of a very prestigious Park Avenue building through private access in the lobby. The dramatic thirty-five-foot gallery, with exquisite decorative columns, bookshelves and detail, leads to a grand double living room with wood-burning fireplace and a charming dining alcove. The open living space faces west to Park Avenue overlooking the building's private gardens as well as garden views looking east. Both of the two main bedrooms have ensuite bathrooms and walk-in closets and the staff room and bath offer an alternative third bedroom. The butler's pantry leads to a large windowed kitchen with a washer and dryer.
High ceilings, arches and beautiful moldings enhance the overall elegance and complete the special aspects of this unique and private apartment. Designed by J. R. Carpenter in 1924, 655 Park Avenue is ideally located on the Upper East Side, with close proximity to Central Park, Madison Avenue and the best of New York shops, galleries and restaurants.
