Property Description

Emery Roth Classic Six Panoramic Park & City Views Wrap Terrace Offered for the first time in over three decades, this extraordinary high-floor, sun-drenched pre-war Classic Six represents a rare and coveted opportunity at the intersection of 74th Street and Park Avenue. The residence commands breathtaking, unobstructed views of Central Park and the Manhattan skyline, further distinguished by a sweeping wrap terrace that brings the city's most iconic vistas into daily living. A stately 17-foot entrance gallery sets a tone of quiet grandeur, flowing seamlessly into the magnificent 25-foot formal living room. Oriented to the west toward Central Park, south toward Billionaires' Row, and north across open sky, the room is a masterwork of pre-war proportion and light. Soaring ceilings, exquisite original architectural detail, and a wood-burning fireplace create an atmosphere of timeless elegance, while floor-to-ceiling light transforms every hour of the day. Step directly from the living room onto the north and west-facing terrace, where views of the Carlyle Hotel and the city's iconic roofline unfold before you. The adjacent formal dining room - currently appointed as a sophisticated den and library - offers jaw-dropping westward views toward the Park and is outfitted with beautifully crafted custom built-in storage. The gourmet eat-in kitchen is bathed in southern light and appointed with top-of-the-line appliances, generous seating, and abundant cabinetry. A separate butler's pantry provides exceptional storage and a refined staging area for formal entertaining. A staff room/home office, complete with sweeping western and park views and a renovated full bath. The corner primary suite is an unrivaled sanctuary. Approached by its own private hallway, the bedroom is graced with open northern skyline views and a picture window framing Central Park. A large glass door opens directly onto the wrap terrace, offering a breathtaking private perch above the treetops and sky. Two custom-fitted walk-in closets, an abundance of natural light, and an en-suite marble bathroom complete the suite. The generous second bedroom - an impressive 25 feet in length and currently configured as a media room - is flooded with southern and eastern light. Its renovated en-suite bathroom is thoughtfully designed to open into the gallery, offering seamless dual functionality as a powder room for guests. This is, without question, a one-of-a-kind residence - grand in scale, gracious in proportion, and singular in its combination of views, outdoor space, and pre-war pedigree. Designed in 1930 by the celebrated architect Emery Roth under the supervision of McKim, Mead & White, 784 Park Avenue is among the Upper East Side's most distinguished addresses. The building offers full white-glove service including a 24-hour attended lobby, fitness center, bicycle storage, laundry, and private storage. Pets and pieds-à-terre are welcome.
