Description
Welcome home to unit #42C at the Olympic Tower, an iconic Fifth Avenue address in NYC.
As soon as you open the front door, you are greeted by a wall of floor-to-ceiling oversized windows with magnificent Central Park and city skyline views. The beauty of this floor plan is its potential and flexibility. Boasting 1300SF of living space, you can convert the L-shaped living room into a spacious second bedroom or home office. The apartment also offers two full bathrooms, and amazing storage spaces and closets.
This home has been renovated with brand new oak floors, a new kitchen, upgrades to the bathrooms, and is freshly painted.
The primary bedroom suite is a rare find in terms of sheer space, and features an en-suite marble bathroom with Central Park views, a generous walk-in closet, and two additional closets. The brand-new kitchen was designed to maximize the space, outfitted with Carrera marble counter tops and back splash, stainless steel appliances, and tons of storage space. The unit also offers washer and dryer and central air-conditioner.
The renown Olympic Tower has an outstanding reputation as one of the finest full-service luxury condominiums in New York City. It was way ahead of its time when it was built in 1976, with an exceptional focus on serenity, privacy and catering to elegant lifestyles. It was developed by Aristotle Onassis and designed by the famed Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. The building combines high end retail shops, offices and luxury residential units next to Rockefeller Center, St. Patricks Cathedral and the finest dining options in the city, in the heart of midtown. This coveted premier Fifth Avenue location is unsurpassed in elegance, style and luxury.
The full, 24/7 staff of doormen and concierge is dedicated to your comfort and stands ready to assist you with personal requests for theater tickets, limousine service, and dining reservations, though Abigail Michaels concierge services. Amenities include a well- appointed gym, package room, and valet car service.
