Description

Just steps from Central Park, this stunning two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence features an elegant flow for sophisticated living and entertaining in a revered, full-service Fifth Avenue cooperative. This exceptional home welcomes you inside with a sweeping, light-filled layout featuring hardwood floors, and crown moldings. From the gracious foyer, you're invited to relax or entertain in the open living and dining areas. The windowed kitchen features excellent cabinet space and a six-burner Viking range, while adjacent built-ins do double duty as a convenient work-from-home space or a buffet and bar for effortless hosting. The serene primary suite provides a generous footprint for a king-size bed and a sitting area and a side Park view. Two large closets, including a walk-in, attend to wardrobe and linens, and the en suite bathroom dazzles with swaths of marble accented by rich gold hardware and exquisite Sherle Wagner fixtures. The second bedroom offers impressive proportions, two roomy closets and easy access to the full guest bathroom. Motorized window shades and custom closet fittings add comfort and ease to this remarkable Lenox Hill haven. 860 Fifth Avenue is a sleek postwar cooperative designed in 1949 by Sylvan Bien, the prolific architect of several Upper East Side landmarks, including The Carlyle hotel. Residents of the elegant enclave enjoy 24-hour doorman service, live-in superintendent, fitness room, dedicated storage, a bike room and an on-site parking garage offering discounted rates for shareholders. Pets, pieds--terre and washer-dryers are permitted with board approval. Fifty-percent financing allowed. A 2 percent flip tax is paid by the buyer. Central Park's 842 acres of iconic outdoor space and recreation are right outside your door. Museum Mile delivers word-class works of art while the renowned boutiques and cafs beckon from Madison Avenue. Transportation is effortless with 4/5/6, N/Q/R/W and F trains, excellent bus service and CitiBikes all nearby.

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. 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.
