About this Property

“I have lived in this apartment for more than forty-six years – over 17,000 days. I have enjoyed every day. 17,000 days of joy. Now my wife and I would like to move on and let someone else have the pleasure of living here. We believe we have the longest frontage on Gramercy Park (about 88 feet) and the best terrace in the neighborhood. There are many apartments around Gramercy Park. They are lovely. But your neighbors have them too. There is no other place like this. New York Magazine called our home an ‘architectural masterpiece.’ “

“Schwartz and Gross, the eminent architectural firm, built Gramercy with a Tudor Revival facade and carried this style into our home. The southern light bursts through the 14 hand-crafted stained glass windows. Our living room ceiling reaches a crescendo at 17′ high. We have 2 bedrooms, a large foyer, an eat-in kitchen and 2.5 baths. The apartment takes up about half the 12th floor. In all likelihood you should have the opportunity to purchase adjacent space on this floor and combine it in the future. What a place that will be!

We love our terrace. It is over 480 square feet with three exposures, including a view of the park to the south. We cook there, eat there, we use it as a workshop for restoring antiques. It is our sculpture garden. And yes our pets love it.”

“This apartment changed my life. I found most of my business contacts through social and business events here. I even met my wife at a party in this apartment. Many couples met here, got married here, had birthdays and anniversaries here. There have been many concerts, theatrical performances and fashion shows in our home.

Even financial analyst meetings have taken place here.

Gramercy is a special neighborhood. Its heartbeat is the Park and its quiescence has remained the same since 1831. We love using one of the coop’s keys to enter this private sanctuary. Safely inside the landmark district, we have avoided the inferno of change that has mired other neighborhoods. Gramercy is elegant and bohemian. You won’t find a better place to call home.

To everything there is a season. The time has come to sell. May you have 17,000 days of joy in this home. What a life that would be.”

– Current owner of #12AD at Gramercy Park North. We couldn’t have said it any better ourselves.

Dubbed an Architectural Masterpiece by NY Magazine, this home boasts the largest frontage, (88 feet), facing south onto Gramercy Park and boundless views from 14 enormous handcrafted stained glass windows.

Built and designed by famed architects Schwartz and Gross, who are responsible for over 80 luxury apartment houses across New York City, with Gramercy Park North being their crowning achievement.

This one of a kind home was commissioned by the owner and developer of the building and clearly no expense was spared. The current owner has resided in the property for nearly 50 years and is hoping to find the right buyers who will have the pleasure of calling it home.

Built in an elegant Tudor revival home which continues throughout the building, this 2500 square foot masterpiece is truly one of the most unique homes in NYC and was designed for entertaining, both inside and out.

The interior is a work of art! The architectural details in this property elevate it to an entirely diﬀerent level. Get lost in the endless array of carved statues, moldings, and vignettes.

Soaring 17 foot ceilings in the LR, a formal dining room, two large ensuite bedrooms, an eat in kitchen, hand carved details, custom bookshelves with hidden storage, two fireplaces and stone arches are only a few of the handcrafted details that adorn this incredible residence …
