Nesumnjivo najizvanredniji dom u jednoj od najpoželjnijih zgrada Kooperacije dizajnirane od strane Rosario Candela na Park Avenue - 778 Park Avenue - ovaj simplex punog kata, površine više od 6,350 četvornih stopa, može se pohvaliti iznimnom skalom, proporcijama i protokom s gotovo 100 stopa staklenih površina na Park Avenue kroz prevelike prozore, od kojih mnogi imaju jedinstvene niske otvore do poda s Juliette balkonima.

Privatni lift ubacuje se u grand galeriju, dugoj više od 36 stopa. Izvrstan mramor i zidovi obučeni u tkaninu s složenim detaljima pasmanterije, te višestoljetna uvezena mahagonijeva vrata, čine zavodljiv prvi dojam ovog doma koji je izvorno dizajnirao Renzo Mongiardino. Elegantan salon/soba za dnevni boravak dužine 32 stope naglašen je spektakularnim kaminom s jednim od nekoliko ugrađenih kamina visoke kategorije. Francuska vrata otkrivaju formalnu blagovaonicu na sjeveru, koja lako može primiti 20 osoba, simfoniju drvenih panela od marquetry koja nadmašuje riječi, također s kaminom i kutnim izlozima. Susjedna pomoćna kuhinja s dovoljno prostora vodi do kuharske kuhinje, lijepo obrađene s profesionalnim aparatima. Na jugu se nalazi šarmantna knjižnica s trećim kaminom. Do njega se dolazi kroz još jedan par francuskih vrata, a tu je i atelje koji sadrži artefakte koji su nekoć služili kao dodatna spavaća soba - lako obnovljiva - s pogledom na Park Avenue.

Ogroman spavaći prostor trenutno je postavljen za smještaj glavnog spavaće suiti i dvije dodatne spavaće sobe, ali je prvotno mogao smjestiti ukupno šest spavaćih soba. Glavna suita je i prostrana i prostrana: ulazni predprostor vodi do spavaće sobe na jugozapadu. Kraljevska kupaonica obložena drvom nalazi se na jednom kraju, dok je druga kupaonica od mramora smještena na drugom kraju, odvojena ogromnim ormarima i svlačionicom s područjem za šminkanje.

Četrdeset i dva prozora ispunjavaju ovaj dom prirodnim svjetlom tijekom cijelog dana s otvorenim pogledima iz sva četiri pravca. Sjajni parketni podovi, stropovi visoki gotovo 11 stopa, detaljni sustavi rasvjete i lijepo izrađene prilagođene obloge suposvuda.

Osoblje Krila, smješteno uz uslužnu dvoranu, uključuje prozorsku praonicu, tri prostorije za osoblje/kućni ured/teretanu te dvije dodatne kupaonice.

Izgrađena 1931. godine, 778 Park Avenue je zgrada s punom uslugom, savršeno smještena samo jedan blok od maloprodajnih čarolija Madison Avenue i dva bloka do Central Parka i Muzej Mile, i sastoji se od samo 18 domova na 18 katova.

Arguably the most extraordinary home in one of Park Avenue's most desirable Rosario Candela-designed Cooperative buildings - 778 Park Avenue - this full-floor, over 6,350sf simplex boasts exceptional scale, proportions, and flow with nearly 100 feet of frontage on Park Avenue through oversized windows, many of which are unique in that they extend low to the floor with Juliette-style balconies.

A private elevator vestibule opens into the grand gallery, over 36 feet in length. Superb marble and fabric-clad walls with intricate passementerie detailing, and centuries-old imported Mahogany doors, make for a beguiling first impression of this home originally designed by Renzo Mongiardino. The elegant 32-foot salon/living room is anchored by a spectacular fireplace with one of several collector-grade imported mantels. French Doors reveal the formal dining room to the north, which could easily accommodate 20 people, a symphony of marquetry wood paneling that defies words, also with a fireplace and corner exposures. The adjacent butler’s pantry with ample storage leads to the chef’s kitchen, beautifully milled with professional-grade appliances. To the south is a charming library with a third fireplace. Next door, accessed via another pair of French doors, is an atelier housing artifacts that once housed an additional bedroom - easily restored - overlooking Park Avenue.

The enormous bedroom wing is currently set up to house the Primary Bedroom Suite and two additional bedrooms, but this originally accommodated six bedrooms in total. The Primary Suite is both gracious and spacious: an entry foyer leads to the southwest corner bedroom. A regal wood-panelled bathroom is at one end, while a second marble bathroom is positioned at the other end, separated by vast closets and a dressing room with a make-up area.

Forty-two windows fill this home with natural light all day with open views from all four exposures. Gleaming hardwood parquet floors, almost 11-foot ceilings, detailed lighting systems, and beautifully crafted custom moldings feature throughout.

The Staff Wing, located off the service hall, includes a windowed laundry room, three staff rooms/home office/gym, and two additional bathrooms.

Built in 1931, 778 Park Avenue is a full-service white-glove building, perfectly positioned just one block from the retail delights of Madison Avenue and two blocks to Central Park and Museum Mile, and consists of just 18 homes over 18 floors. The building recently added a large, professionally equipped fitness center with natural daylight and an adjoining make-up/hair room. It has a full-time live-in superintendent, bicycle storage, and is pet-friendly. There is a 3% Flip Tax paid by the purchaser and an assessment of $7,975/month till the end of 2026.
