Description

This magnificent residence is situated in Fifth Avenue's most notable building designed by Rosario Candela. It is a grand-scale apartment with exquisite detail and perfectly proportioned rooms. The entertaining rooms radiate off the gracious entrance gallery, which is accessed by a private elevator vestibule. The thirty-foot living room with wood burning fireplace and eleven and a half foot ceilings has spectacular treetop views of Central Park and the Central Park West skyline. It leads to both the Park-facing library and the impressive formal dining room. An exceptionally wide bedroom hallway leads to the two master bedrooms along Fifth Avenue. The enormous master bedroom has a large bath, generous closets and a dressing room, which was originally a full second master bath. The large eat-in-kitchen, designed by renowned architect Gwathmey Siegel, includes a breakfast room, laundry room and expansive pantry and storage. A stairway off the kitchen leads up to a suite of three staff bedrooms and a full bath. Other highlights of the apartment include a powder room, a wet-bar off the library, a generous storage room, and through the wall air conditioning. The building permits the installation of central air conditioning.

834 Fifth Avenue was built in 1931 and is located in a highly sought-after New York City location. Residents have access to a variety of white-glove services including a doorman, fully attended lobby, elevator attendants, a fitness room and private storage and laundry rooms for each apartment. There is a 3% building flip tax payable by the purchaser and financing is not permitted.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, 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.
