A Full-Floor Prewar Sanctuary Off Fifth Avenue:
Step directly from a keyed elevator into this full-floor residence in a white-glove co-op with only fourteen residences. Located steps from Central Park, this home marries the grand architectural scale of 1929 with the updates of modern living. Apartment 7 offers privacy, views, and… Read More many original details still remain, such as original herringbone floors, mahogany doors, dentil moldings, three wood-burning fireplaces and 10 ft ceilings. There are 4 bedrooms, an eat-in kitchen, a staff room, and a full laundry room.
The Entertaining Areas:
A private elevator landing leads you into a large central gallery, with the living room, dining room, and den/library each just steps away. The living room is bathed in southern light through four oversized picture windows and offers a quintessential NYC view, over the historic mansions of 79th Street, the 57th Street skyline in the distance, and a beautiful outlook of Central Park to the west. The southern facing den/library has beautiful custom bookshelves and another wood-burning fireplace. Curved mahogany pocket doors, separate this room from the living room. The formal dining room, crowned by a graceful coved ceiling, is large enough to seat 12 and has windows facing west and north. It leads into a large, windowed eat-in kitchen with a separate breakfast nook.
The Sleeping Chambers:
Cleverly separated from the public spaces via a discrete gallery corridor is the bedroom wing. The primary suite faces south and is bathed in sunlight, with yet another, wood-burning fireplace. A windowed marble bathroom features a steam shower and a deep soaking tub. Down the hall are two additional bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath and ample closets, along with a fourth bedroom with a nearby bath. At the end of the hall, there's a full laundry room equipped with a sink and extra storage, along with a staff room and its own bath.
Building Details:
Two private storage units transfer with the sale. The co-op permits 50% financing, and a 2% flip tax is payable by the purchaser. Read Less
