Property Description
Measuring nearly 1,400 square feet, this high-floor residence enjoys three exposures—west, north, and east—filling the home with natural light and offering cinematic views over Park Avenue's manicured median, the Empire State Building, and sweeping open skies. The oversized square living room, measuring 20' by 22', is a striking centerpiece with three picture windows and a wood-burning fireplace, setting the tone for the home's grand scale and quiet sophistication.
The layout is as functional as it is generous, with a separate dining area just off the entry foyer, a windowed eat-in kitchen, plentiful closets, and nearly 9' ceilings throughout. The primary suite is a true retreat, with western exposure, custom built-ins and wall-to-wall closets, and an expansive windowed bath with separate spa shower and soaking tub. A washer and dryer are discreetly tucked away within the ensuite. A second bedroom and second full bath complete the offering.
While the apartment awaits a thoughtful refresh, the opportunity here is compelling: the underlying architecture and proportions provide the perfect canvas to create a refined, bespoke home with minimal intervention. This is a chance for a discerning buyer to reimagine the space with light, careful updates—personalizing a classic layout without compromising its inherent character.
Built in 1924 by noted architects Walker & Gillette, 71 Park Avenue is a full-service, red-stucco and limestone pre-war condominium with 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, bike room, and laundry facilities. Perfectly positioned just below the landmark Helmsley Building on lushly manicured Park Avenue, and minutes from Bryant Park, the Morgan Library, and an array of cafes and restaurants, this pocket of Murray Hill is a quiet, architectural enclave with a true neighborhood feel. With Grand Central just moments away, it's ideal whether you spend long weekends beyond the city via Metro-North or are seeking a central hub with seamless access to multiple subway lines
Pet-friendly and pied-a-terre friendly, Residence 12A is equally well-suited as a full-time home or sophisticated city retreat.
