Property Description

Reflecting the remarkable and renowned personal style of the late Brooke Astor, this residence is an eloquent representation of her distinguished life. It is located in 778 Park Avenue and was designed in 1931 by Rosario Candela. It occupies the entire 16th and part of the 15th floors, resulting in 4 exposures. What makes this property charming are the architectural assets. There are 15 rooms, 10 of which have at least 2 exposures. Additionally, there are new French doors opening to 6 terraces, 5 fireplaces with antique mantels, original moldings, antique parguet de Versailes floors and high ceilings. The entertaining rooms all radiate off a 30-foot gallery. The formal dining room has a fireplace and 2 pairs of French doors to a terrace. The red lacquer and brass-trimmed library was designed by Albert Hadley and is possibly the most photographed room on Park Avenue. This room features a fireplace and 3 pairs of new French doors opening to a terrace. The private quarters are on both the 15th and 16th floors. On the 16th floor is a study, a guest room, powder room and master bedroom. With 3 exposures, a fireplace and 2 pairs of new French doors to a terrace, this room is truly enchanting. On the 15th floor is another master bedroom and 4th bedroom and bath. The service area has a large servants' hall, kitchen and pantry with 3 maid's rooms and bath. All in all, the Astor is an architectural reflection of a grand life well lived. Offered at 24,900,000.
