About This Property
Uncompromising quality and serene vistas of Central Park and the Manhattan skyline abound in this full floor 4,322 square foot penthouse at Robert A.M. Stern’s lauded 520 Park Avenue. Meticulously renovated and conceptualized by the current owners, this 59th floor residence has been transformed into an exceptionally grand pied-a-terre using the finest of materials.
Enter via a private key-locked elevator landing into the grand entry gallery, elegantly finished with marble slab flooring and trim, custom moldings, and framed with custom metal and glass pocket doors. Three grand entertaining rooms – a formal dining room, formal living room, and study/sitting room – all flow together beautifully, wrapping the northeast corner of the apartment and allow for large-scale gatherings as well as more intimate moments. These spaces are custom designed with details including intricate moldings and built-in millwork, white oak herringbone flooring, and stunning northern views of Central Park and eastern exposures to the river through oversized windows. The windowed eat-in kitchen, custom-designed with hand-painted Christopher Peacock cabinetry, offers an expansive central island, Covelano Oro marble countertops, and a full appliance package including Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Miele appliances.
Encompassing the southeast corner of the residence, the home’s primary suite has been crafted for the ultimate in privacy and convenience. A south-facing primary bedroom with views of the Empire State Building, two primary bathrooms finished in Caldia Classico and Arabescato marble, and two walk-in closets make for an enviable retreat. A private en-suite guest bedroom facing south, powder room finished in white onyx, and separate laundry facilities complete this rare offering. Currently configured as a generous two-bedroom with multiple entertaining rooms, it is easily convertible back to a three-bedroom home with three en-suite baths as indicated in the alternate floor plan. A private storage unit and wine cellar both transfer with this unit.
Designed by the renowned architect Robert A.M. Stern and developed by Zeckendorf Development, 520 Park Avenue is an ultra-luxury limestone-clad skyscraper that defines modern opulence on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. This exclusive boutique tower features only 35 full-floor and multi-floor residences, each offering access to over 15,000 square feet of world-class amenities - headlined by a vaulted double-height indoor swimming pool bathed in natural light from a landscaped garden above. Additional features include a bi-level state-of-the-art fitness center, a private screening room, a walnut-paneled salon, and more. Every detail, from the grand bronze entry doors to the hand-carved stone latticework, is crafted to evoke the timeless elegance of New York's historic 1920s apartment houses while providing the absolute height of 21st-century comfort.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Compass.
A private key-locked elevator lands directly in the residence on the 59th floor of 520 Park Avenue, so the front door is yours alone from the moment you step off. The building also has a concierge, valet parking, cold storage and laundry in the building, so many daily errands can be handled without leaving the lobby area.
The eat-in kitchen has windows, an expansive central island and Covelano Oro marble countertops. The appliances are Wolf, Sub-Zero and Miele, and the hand-painted Christopher Peacock cabinetry was custom designed for the space.
The south-facing primary bedroom and the en-suite guest bedroom both face south, and the primary bedroom has views of the Empire State Building. On an open south horizon, direct sun reaches this exposure for about 8.5 hours on the winter solstice, from 7:41 AM to 4:07 PM, and about 10 hours on each equinox. Nearby buildings can block some of that light.
The primary suite runs along the southeast corner and has two primary bathrooms finished in Caldia Classico and Arabescato marble, plus two walk-in closets.
The powder room is finished in white onyx.
The formal dining room, formal living room and study or sitting room flow together around the northeast corner. Oversized windows give northern views of Central Park and eastern exposures to the river, and white oak herringbone flooring runs through the rooms.
Central Park is about 4 minutes on foot, and the 59 St station for the 4, 5, 6, N, R and W is about 4 minutes away. The building has an indoor pool, a gym, a sauna, a steam room, a courtyard and a garden, and the private storage unit and wine cellar transfer with the residence.
