Property Details
Description
Understated grandeur and opulence define this magnificent loft-style home in the coveted Beaux Arts style landmarked building that needs no fancy name. "43 Fifth Avenue" is an address that speaks for itself. This one-of-a-kind parlor-level unit was Marlon Brando's first apartment when he moved to this stately building offering luxurious "Parisian Apartments." Since the walls of this apartment are shared with no other unit, it offered a rare degree of privacy even by Fifth Avenue standards. The extra large corner bedroom with both South and West exposures gets all day light through three massive prewar windows, as well as delightful views of treetops and beautiful gardens of the 174 year old landmarked First Presbyterian Church. The bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed, large furniture, a home office and more. The newly designer-renovated chef's kitchen features gorgeous custom teal cabinetry and high-end commercial caliber stainless steel appliances and fixtures, including a full-size range hood. The gut-renovated marble-tiled bathroom is equally impressive, with white-lacquer vanity, high-end fixtures, and modern glass shower with rainfall shower head. Numerous built-ins, abundant closet space, through-wall AC, a smokeless fireplace, and an in-unit Miele washer/dryer are all part of the modern conveniences. 43 Fifth Avenue is a coveted boutique white-glove landmark in the Greenwich Village Historic District. The stately building is dressed in a limestone facade accented by wrought-iron balconies and majestic bay windows. Your guests cross the dry moat to be welcomed into a breathtakingly ornate grand lobby with marble floor and elegant Art Nouvea bas reliefs lining the walls. In addition to the 24 hour doorman, owners enjoy additional storage, a resident superintendent, and of course all of the benefits of this unbeatable Fifth Avenue location, including some of the city's finest cafes, restaurants and shopping.
