GOLDEN DAYS AWAIT

RARE GOLD COAST SPLIT 2BR - LEGENDARY ADDRESS - WORLD CLASS LOCATION

PIED A TERRE PURCHASES WELCOME

BY APPOINTMENT SHOWINGS ONLY

Open Houses not permitted

Enviably situated on lower Fifth Avenue on the coveted and iconic Gold Coast, there exists a residential treasure. A mere stone's throw from the glorious Washington Arch in nearby Washington Square Park, and perfectly perched in an address known around the world, this big, split two bedroom, 2 bath home is ready for you to write its next chapter. Well-situated in an iconic address known by Art Deco enthusiasts as one of its era's most premiere towers, and celebrated still for its top tier staff and service, this residence is a stand out for all the right reasons.


The entry gallery/hall unfolds into a sizable, open living/dining room with big windows onto 8th Street. This space offers the perfect setting for easy living and fun entertaining. The open kitchen has stone counters, and good cabinet space. The two big bedrooms are quiet and comfortable, with en suite baths and ideal closet space. Underfoot are attractive wood floors and above you are high ceilings. The pre-war touches in this home lend to its soulful, feel-good vibe.


One Fifth Avenue is pet and pied-a-terre friendly, and pristinely set on one of NYC's most enviable blocks. Here, a stone's throw from every downtown cultural, dining, shopping, and fitness destination, is a location that comes with bragging rights. Come home to a stellar, double-height lobby, a kind and helpful staff, a live-in Super and a wonderful home -- in a well-served building with building storage, bike room, and laundry.


Anchored in a glorious history, but well planned and perfectly suited for life today, this inviting home is a stand-out residence for all the best reasons. Golden days are right here.


(The monthly assessment will continue through December 2020. There is also a capital assessment of $20 per share to be billed monthly beginning March 1st and continuing through December 2020.)
