Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
Completed in 1926, 888 Park Avenue is a prewar cooperative, and apartment 6C has herringbone floors and high ceilings that give the rooms a sense of scale. The listing offers it in estate condition, so the buyer decides how far the updates go, and that's a real choice to plan for early.
The layout starts with a central gallery that leads to the living room, which has a wood-burning fireplace and an adjoining library. The dining room sits at the far end of the gallery. For hosting, that arrangement helps, because guests can move between the main rooms without passing through the private wing, which the listing describes as a separate retreat.
Three bedrooms sit in the private wing, and each has a windowed en suite bathroom and a spacious closet. In-unit washer and dryer is listed here, which matters more in a home this size than it might seem, since it removes a regular trip to a shared laundry room.
Pets are permitted.
The listing describes 888 Park Avenue as full-service, with a 24-hour doorman, resident manager, handyman and porter, plus a fitness center and private storage. It also notes a 5% flip tax and that 40% financing is permitted, so those terms are worth reviewing with the board's requirements before you make an offer.
On foot, the 77 St station on the 6 train is about 3 minutes away, and Central Park is about 5 minutes. The Metropolitan Museum of Art is about 8 minutes from the building, which makes it easy to take in a visit on a free afternoon.
