Description

A Showstopping Park Avenue Penthouse Duplex with Sweeping Central Park Views Welcome to a rarely available, gut-renovated Penthouse Duplex soaring above Park Avenue. Perched atop a distinguished white-glove prewar co-op, this one-of-a-kind home spans the 21st and 22nd floors—high enough to clear the skyline to the West, offering jaw-dropping, unobstructed views of Central Park and the Manhattan cityscape from every direction. Four Terraces. Endless Sunshine. Ultimate Privacy. Bathed in natural light, every room feels airy and expansive. Four generous terraces create seamless indoor-outdoor living, perfect for entertaining or enjoying peaceful solitude high above the city. A private elevator opens directly into a gracious gallery with open northern views. From there, step into the expansive corner Living Room, where towering ceilings, custom millwork, and a working wood-burning fireplace set the tone. Two sets of tall French doors flank the fireplace, flooding the space with sun and opening to an extraordinary wraparound terrace. The adjacent Dining Room is equally stunning, with separate terrace access ideal for al fresco meals or lazy afternoons in a hammock. Tucked just off the dining space is a sunlit home office nook—serene, discreet, and with potential to restore a half bath. A Chef’s Kitchen with a Garden Vibe The open Eat-In Kitchen was smartly reimagined with direct access to its own private terrace—grow herbs, host cocktails, or simply take in the views. Thoughtfully designed with custom cast concrete countertops and floors, Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Gaggenau appliances, radiant heat poured concrete floor, built-in seating with storage, and bespoke cabinetry. Luxury on Every Level Downstairs, the Second Bedroom is a serene getaway. A windowed marble bath with extensive custom built-ins, and a Bosch washer/dryer discreetly accessed in the hall. The Primary Suite is pure magic—10’ ceilings, walls of glass from full-height French doors leading to yet another sprawling terrace with panoramic Park and skyline views. The spa-like bath features a soaking tub, Toto washlet, and European-imported stone in the standing shower—with exterior shutters that open to a surreal view across the terrace. Hidden storage, a cedar closet, and exquisite millwork round out the suite. Tucked beside it is a third glass-enclosed room—a dreamy den, office, or bedroom where you can watch the sun set over Central Park in total peace. Modern Sophistication, Historic Elegance In triple mint condition, the penthouse was reimagined by Davies Toews Architecture with no detail overlooked: multi-zone central air, Dinesen wide-plank oak floors, imported marble, all-new doors and windows, and custom finishes throughout. Clean lines, timeless materials, and total tranquility await your personal design touch. A Trophy Residence at a Legendary Address Designed by Emory Roth in partnership with McKim, Mead & White, 784 Park Avenue is an iconic limestone co-op on 74th & Park.
