Stunning Candela Prewar Five Bedroom with Magnificent Light and Park Avenue Views
Perched on a very high floor, this coveted corner B-line, 12-into-10 room, apartment at 1220 Park Avenue has five-bedrooms, four-and-a-half-baths, is flooded with sunlight and has sweeping city views over Park Avenue and East 95th Street. Designed by Rosario Candela, this prewar cooperative apartment offers a perfect blend of sophisticated grandeur and modern comfort.
A private elevator vestibule opens to an expansive gallery, setting the tone for the apartment’s gracious proportions, striking ceiling height and refined details. Thoughtfully located off the gallery is a suite of generously proportioned entertaining rooms including an oversized living room, elegant dining room, and spacious library, while also featuring an attractive powder room with a beautifully designed marble floor.
The south and east facing corner living room is sun-filled with light from five oversized windows and features a beautiful fireplace and open views. The scale comfortably allows for multiple seating areas. Adjacent to the living room is the chic library with custom built-ins. This well-appointed room offers an additional fireplace and south-facing windows. This versatile space can easily be converted into a sixth bedroom, if desired. The formal dining room, currently used as a combination of dining and library space, boasts large east-facing windows overlooking Park Avenue. Directly accessed off of the dining room is a lovely butler’s pantry and bar complete with custom cabinetry, a paneled Sub-Zero beverage refrigerator, and ice maker. This provides seamless access to the kitchen. The fully renovated, windowed eat-in kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring top-of-the-line appliances, including a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and dual dishwashers, in addition to extensive custom cabinetry and storage. A cozy windowed breakfast room with a corner banquette completes this house-like kitchen. Additionally, there is a dedicated laundry room with a sink and washer and dryer.
The private bedroom wing, accessed via an expansive hallway lined with custom built-in closets, offers five wonderful bedrooms. The first bedroom features custom bookshelves, southern exposure and an updated ensuite bathroom. The primary suite also enjoys similar sky-filled views and has a classically renovated ensuite bathroom with a double vanity and walk-in shower. The primary suite’s custom dressing room with abundant millwork and storage leads to an ideally located private office, complete with a wall of bookshelves and an oversized window. There are three additional bedrooms, each spacious with ample light and bright exposures as well as custom built-ins and closets. Two of the rooms share an updated hall bathroom, while the third features a fully renovated ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. This bedroom is ideal for use as a guest suite or easily converts to a den or media room, if preferred.
