About this home
<p>A masterpiece of classic pre-war architecture, this exceptional Carnegie Hill residence was designed by legendary architect Rosario Candela and meticulously renovated by renowned architect Alan Wanzenberg. Combining the timeless grandeur of Candela's celebrated proportions with sophisticated contemporary design and state-of-the-art technology, this remarkable home offers an extraordinary setting for both gracious entertaining and refined everyday living.</p><p>A private marble landing opens to a magnificent 23-foot gallery, where original oak herringbone floors establish an immediate sense of elegance and architectural continuity. The gallery leads to an extraordinary 28-foot, southeast-facing living room, bathed in natural light from five oversized windows framing stunning views down Park Avenue and beyond. A wood-burning fireplace serves as a warm and inviting focal point, complementing the room's impressive scale and classic proportions.</p><p>Designed for grand-scale entertaining, the spectacular 22-foot dining room comfortably accommodates multiple guests. A discreet butler's pantry connects the dining room to the kitchen and features dual Sub-Zero wine refrigerators with a combined capacity of 264 bottles, creating an exceptional setting for entertaining and collecting. Also in this area is a vented Miele washer and dryer, abundant storage, and a tasteful powder room that serves the entertaining spaces.</p><p>The windowed eat-in kitchen is as beautiful as it is functional, appointed with custom cabinetry and wall paneling, exquisite Calacatta Gold marble countertops, Wolf double ovens, and a six-burner gas range with exterior ventilation. A 48-inch Sub-Zero refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher complete this beautifully considered culinary space.</p><p>Facing south, the richly appointed library features elegant mahogany paneling and offers a sophisticated retreat for reading, working, or quiet conversation. With the flexibility to be converted into an additional bedroom, it provides a valuable dimension of versatility to the residence.</p><p>The private bedroom wing is thoughtfully separated from the entertaining spaces, creating a serene sense of retreat. The south-facing primary suite is a sanctuary of comfort and refinement, featuring two walk-in closets, and a generously proportioned en-suite bathroom with a steam shower. A second south-facing bedroom offers a large walk-in closet and an en-suite windowed bathroom. Two additional bedrooms complete the wing, providing flexibility for guests or additional private living spaces.</p><p>Modern comforts and advanced technology are discreetly integrated throughout, including multi-zone central heating and air conditioning with humidification, Crestron-controlled window treatments, Lutron lighting, thermally insulated windows with UV protection, an integrated alarm system, and museum-quality Nulux art lighting. A dedicated basement storage unit transfers with the sale.</p><p>A rare offering that unites Rosario Candela's architectural legacy with Alan Wanzenberg's sophisticated vision, this distinguished Park Avenue residence embodies the enduring elegance of Carnegie Hill. With its exceptional proportions, extraordinary natural light, beautifully appointed interiors, and seamless balance of grand entertaining and private living, it represents a truly remarkable opportunity to own a timeless Manhattan home.</p>...
