Rare Park Avenue Maisonette
930 Park Avenue Maisonette 1C – Residential Conversion Opportunity
Located in one of Park Avenue’s most distinguished pre-war cooperatives,
Maisonette 1C is a rarely available unique offering. With entrances via 930 Park’s
elegant lobby or a private vestibule just off Park Avenue, 1C offers 852 square
feet of renovated space with exceptional flexibility and a multitude of possible
uses. A coveted corner exposure facing east on Park Avenue and north on quiet
81st Street brings in wonderful sunlight throughout the day.
Currently configured as a sophisticated consultation suite, 1C opens from a
gracious foyer into two sunny, generously proportioned principal rooms
measuring 19’4” x 13’1’ and 14’10”x12’0”. A third room measuring 15’0’x7’0”
provides additional flexibility and could readily accommodate a kitchen and
washer/dryer. There are two half baths, as well as central air conditioning and five
large closets. Perhaps most compelling is the freedom this property affords to be
tailored to an incoming owner’s needs. With minimal reconfiguration, Maisonette
1C lends itself to a natural conversion into a gracious one- or two-bedroom home,
pied-à-terre, or residence incorporating a substantial home office or guest suite.
It’s scale, light, multiple entrances and unusually adaptable floor plan provide a
wonderful canvas for creating something truly special.
Designed in 1916 by renowned architectural firm Schwartz & Gross, 930 Park
Avenue is a full-service white-glove cooperative anchored on one of the Upper
East Side's most desirable corners, moments from Central Park, Museum Mile,
and the boutiques and restaurants of Madison Avenue. The building offers a 24-
hour doorman, live-in resident manager, fitness center, laundry and bicycle room.
There is a 2% flip tax paid by the buyer. 50% financing permitted. Pet friendly.
Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Sothebys International Realty.
Schwartz & Gross designed 930 Park Avenue in 1916, and the room sizes in this maisonette still reflect that pre-war plan. Two sunny principal rooms open from a foyer, one measuring 19 feet 4 inches by 13 feet 1 inch and the other 14 feet 10 inches by 12 feet. A third room, 15 by 7 feet, sits beside them, and the listing says it could take a kitchen and a washer/dryer.
The corner faces east on Park Avenue and north on 81st Street. On an open horizon, the east windows get direct sun from 7:20 AM to 12:36 PM in spring, and nearby buildings can block it. In summer the same windows get direct sun from 5:49 AM to 12:44 PM, which is a long morning of light.
The listing describes the layout as adaptable, and that's the part I'd weigh most. It's set up now as a consultation suite, and with minimal reconfiguration it could become a one or two bedroom home, a pied-à-terre, or a residence with a home office or guest suite. Two half baths, central air conditioning and five large closets come with it.
The building has a 24-hour doorman, a live-in resident manager, a fitness center, laundry, a bicycle room and an elevator. The listing describes it as a full-service cooperative and says pets are allowed. It also notes a 2 percent flip tax paid by the buyer and financing of up to 50 percent.
Central Park is about 5 minutes away on foot, and the 86 Street station for the 4, 5 and 6 is about 8 minutes. The New York Society Library is about 2 minutes away, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art is about 7.
Does the building have a doorman?
Yes. The building has a 24-hour doorman and a live-in resident manager.
Does the building have an elevator?
Yes. The building has an elevator.
Are pets allowed?
