This triple mint Park Avenue facing two-bedroom, two-bathroom was meticulously renovated to perfection. As you walk into the apartment's foyer there are three custom concealed closets that include (1) a deep pantry outfitted for storage, (2) a stacked washer / dryer which is one of the last washer and dryer's that is allowed to be installed in the line and (3) a coat closet with storage above and an area for modems and cable. In an effort to give the apartment a classic Park Avenue feel, the current owner moved the entrance of the kitchen from the foyer and replaced it with a console to create a dramatic focal point as you enter. The foyer separates your living room to the left and the bedrooms to the right.
The oversized living space is large enough to fit a massive sectional and a dining table. It is outfitted with custom built-ins, a dry bar, a wall unit and storage to maximize space. The brand new windows face west onto Park Avenue and receive light throughout the day. Off the living room is the new entrance to the windowed chef's kitchen which has floor to ceiling storage, cabinetry nearly everywhere you can find a place for it and top of the line full size GE Monogram cooktop, oven and dishwasher. There is also a full sized Sub-Zero fridge. Past the kitchen is a door to the balcony which has been enclosed and would work perfectly as a kids playroom, office, exercise space or simply as an additional place to host an intimate dinner, a drink, or morning coffee.
On the other side of the apartment are the bedrooms. The secondary bedroom is currently configured as a nursery and includes custom closets and cabinetry. It is highly versatile and can easily become a secondary bedroom, office, or den. The oversized primary bedroom includes a king size bed and two night stands. The current owner has outfitted the space with a three door floor-to-ceiling accessory closet, added a three door closet for clothing, both shelving and double height hanging storage, a true linen closet and an additional oversized walk-in-closet with floor to ceiling hang, double height hang extensive shelving and drawers from floor to ceiling.
There are new ac units and electric throughout the apartment. Both bathrooms were also fully gutted with new plumbing, stunning marble slabs and high-end finishes. The primary bathroom has a deep soaking tub and the secondary bathroom has a stall shower. The gorgeous rift and quartered white oak floors are new as well and are in excellent condition.
605 Park Avenue is an impeccably run, full-service coop featuring a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, gym, outdoor space, laundry room, bike room, and storage units. It is two blocks from Central Park and within close proximity to some of the best restaurants and shopping Manhattan has to offer. The building recently changed the downpayment policy from 50% to 25% down. Pets are welcome (under 25 lbs.). Pied-a-terres allowed on a case by case basis. The building is just completing thorough renovations which included new windows, new through wall air conditioners and new terrace railings.
