Description
Triple mint two bedroom, two bath, Fifth Avenue maisonette facing directly on Central Park in full service white glove Carpenter building. Enter this sophisticated prewar apartment through the impressive attended lobby of 1170 Fifth Avenue and into your own gracious mirrored and paneled foyer. The oversized living room faces directly onto Fifth Avenue with views of Central Park's East Meadow and the building's own lush and manicured garden. There is a wood-burning fireplace with a Chesneys limestone surround flanked by custom built-ins, large double-glazed windows, high ceilings, Nu-Lux recessed gallery lighting, and timeless hardwood floors.
The corner primary bedroom is also on Fifth Avenue with greenery around both windows. It has a massive walk-in closet and handsome adjoining marble bath. The second large bedroom has two generous outfitted closets and a fully renovated windowed bath.
The windowed kitchen is a cook's dream with a Sub Zero refrigerator, two Fisher Paykel dishwasher drawers, Wolf range, custom cabinetry, plenty of counterspace, as well as a hidden Miele washer and dryer.
Every room in this exquisitely renovated apartment faces externally, with no "courtyard" exposures, through new extra large windows that create a quiet and serene environment and provide bright and charming Park and garden views.
The apartment features central air conditioning, a full security system, a Crestron stereo system, Nanz hardware, and new wiring and plumbing throughout. The apartment also comes with its own private storage in the basement.
1170 Fifth Avenue was built in 1926 by famed architect J.E.R. Carpenter as a cooperative. The building features 24-hour doormen, live-in resident manager, bike room, fitness room, storage, and it is surrounded by top schools, museums, shops, public transportation, and restaurants. Central Park is your backyard!

Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
