530 Park Ave. #14H

Welcome to Apartment 14H in the perennially sophisticated 530 Park Ave Condominium. Built in 1941 and graciously converted in 2011 classic interiors designed by William T. Georgis, one of Architectural Digest’s “Top 100” design firms, this prewar building exudes quite cool, starting with its location on the corner of Park & 61st next door to The Regency Hotel.

Apt 14-H faces south over lower buildings all the way to 60th St, and gets magnificent natural light all day long from casement, energy efficient double-paned windows throughout. The entry foyer has generously proportioned closets and space for both furniture and art. Worth noting are the herringbone floors which begin at the door and run throughout.

Just off the foyer is the Bosch W/D which is discreetly tucked into another closet off of the entry. The living room is blasted with sun from its corner aspect and large windows. With its position in the building, it’s especially quiet and private. There’s a pass-thru kitchen and breakfast bar that is ideal for either intimate dining or having friends over for cocktails.

The appliances are all top quality, as one would expect in a building like this such as a Sub-Zero refrigerator & under-counter wine cooler, Wolf gas range & Viking microwave & Bosch D/W. There’s handcrafted, custom painted English wood cabinetry by Smallbone of Devizes Pietra Cardosa Italian granite countertops, a stainless steel sink & Italian porcelain floors, and an extravagant amount of storage & counter space. There’s even a window for circulation and light.

Head to the bedroom where you’ll find room for a king sized bed plus furniture, and a walk-in closet, often a hallmark of prewar buildings and frequently overlooked in new construction. The marble bathroom is appointed with Greek black and white Thassos basket weave flooring, a glass enclosed stand-in shower and custom vanity & a nickel plated medicine cabinet, also custom made. 530 Park Ave is a full service prewar condominium with a full time staff and resident manager.

The lobby is elegant in its simplicity and shows how Park Avenue buildings separate themselves from all others. The building offers a gym, a resident’s library with billiards table and lovely sitting area, plus children’s playroom. Additionally, there’s a residents’ courtyard with a reflecting pool & garden, a catering kitchen & bicycle storage. The building is wired for FIOS.
