This stunning 3-bedroom home, located on the second floor, at 485 Park Avenue is a beautifully appointed Classic-Seven, located in one of Park Avenue's prestigious white-glove cooperatives, featuring furniture and artwork collected by the fashion icon and heiress Millicent Rogers. Nestled at the intersection of Midtown East and the Upper East Side, this elegant home presents the rare opportunity to preserve the timeless grace of its pre-war architecture while bringing it up to date with modern fixtures. Upon entering through a semi-private landing, a gracious 27-foot-long central gallery sets a tone of quiet luxury, framed by decorative wainscoting and classic herringbone wood floors that seamlessly connects to a spacious, South-facing living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace with custom millwork and built-in bookshelves. French doors open to the formal dining room, allowing for a fluid and elegant entertaining experience. The adjacent windowed eat-in kitchen is both expansive and practical. The apartment features three South-facing bedrooms. The serene primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and additional storage. A second and third bedroom share a private suite at the far end of the home - offering privacy, generous closet space, and a shared windowed bathroom. Additionally, there is a staff room with a full third bathroom. Built in 1922 by Dwight P. Robinson & Co., 485 Park Avenue is a distinguished full-service cooperative with a limestone base and classic architectural detailing. Residents enjoy the services of a full-time staff, live-in resident manager, private storage, and bicycle storage. The location is unbeatable-just moments from Central Park, The Museum of Modern Art, and world-class shopping and dining along Fifth and Madison Avenues. Nearby conveniences include Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and several major subway lines (N, R, W, 4, 5, 6), with bus routes just one block away. The cooperative permits pieds-à-terre upon board approval and welcomes pets. Financing is allowed up to 50%. Residence 1B offers the rare opportunity to live in a home that is at once classic, comfortable, and unmistakably Park Avenue.
