The open and spacious living area features four bright windows, high ceilings (need to confirm 10ft) and is anchored by a stately wood-burning fireplace, offering the perfect setting for both relaxed evenings and sophisticated entertaining. Modern comforts include central air conditioning and an in-unit washer and dryer—rare features that enhance everyday living in this pre-war gem. Tucked away in a quiet corner of the building, this penthouse provides a true sense of retreat while being conveniently located just across from the beautifully landscaped communal roof garden—an ideal extension of your living space for enjoying peaceful outdoor moments. Originally built in 1921 and redesigned by Emery Roth in 1941, 969 Park Avenue is a full-service cooperative situated between 82nd and 83rd Street, only two blocks from Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the boutique shops and dining of Madison Avenue. The building offers a 24-hour doorman, live-in resident manager, fitness center, bike room, storage (waitlist), and a newly renovated roof garden. Pets and pied-à-terre ownership are permitted on a case-by-case basis, with 50% financing allowed. There is a 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser and an ongoing assessment of $623 per month. This meticulously renovated penthouse is the perfect turnkey residence for those seeking refined living in the heart of the Upper East Side.
