The kitchen, which includes a butler's pantry and breakfast room, features custom cabinetry, herringbone floors, a marble backsplash, and high-end appliances. This co-op also contains a long hallway and gallery, home office, maid's room, powder room, and laundry room. Other details include two fireplaces (one is wood-burning), double-glazed windows, and a private elevator landing. It is located in a full service, pet-friendly, pre-war building with private storage and a gym. 1021 Park Ave., #3C Maintenance: $3,964 An eleven-room co-op in a full service Rosario Candela building, this three-bedroom apartment, about 3,600 square feet, has a 31-foot gallery with a Russian neo-classical hand-stenciled floor, four windows, and a garden view.
