812 Park Avenue   Unit 2/3E

This classical and elegant prewar duplex is offering an opportunity to secure a home which has been beautifully maintained after having been carefully renovated to achieve the greatest comfort in living and entertaining. The apartment contains 8 rooms, 4 baths, in a cooperative designed by the legendary architect James Carpenter in 1927 for which he received an award for his classical achievement.

The atmosphere of this apartment creates the impression of being in a private townhouse. A long and graceful entrance gallery has 11 foot ceiling and a magnificent curving staircase. Opening off the gallery is a superb paneled library with full bath and a large walk-in storage closet. Beyond the library is a spacious living room with wood burning fireplace. The living room faces west into gardens and opens east into the large formal dining room with windows on a garden. Entered from the dining room as well as the entrance gallery is a large modern kitchen complete with washer and dryer and a dining area.

On the second floor the two large bedrooms have been integrated to form a master bedroom facing west with a remarkably large bath and walk in closet. Facing East is a most comfortable private study with closets, bookcases, storage and a bath with large walk in shower.

Separated by the long upstairs landing which has a walk in cedar closet and wide linen closet are two small bedrooms which share a bath. These bedrooms by their privacy are perfect for guests. Included with this apartment are a private storage room and a private laundry room in the basement.
