Description

Ideally situated on the 15th floor in one of Fifth Avenue's most desirable prewar buildings between 76th and 77th Streets, this impeccably renovated five-room home enjoys exceptional Park and city views from each and every room.

A large square gallery opens onto a 43-foot expanse of entertainment space. It includes a wonderful living room with a wood burning fireplace, high ceilings and oversized wall-to-wall windows capturing amazing Central Park and Manhattan skyline views. The adjacent formal dining room has open unobstructed city views to the East. A convenient guest bathroom is also located off the gallery.

Immediately off the dining room is a bar/butler's pantry leading to an 18 x 11 renovated eat-in-kitchen with custom cabinetry and top of the line appliances, including a Subzero refrigerator, Wolf range and Miele dishwasher. A separate built-in washer/dryer complete the kitchen wing of the home.

The library/second bedroom is adjacent to the living room and also enjoys terrific views of Central Park and the city skyline. The ensuite bath has been beautifully renovated, and a large window captures more Central Park views.

The oversized master suite occupies the southern wing of the apartment and also benefits from the same outstanding views. The impeccably renovated and large master bathroom has a double vanity as well as a spa shower with a stone bathing bench. Two generous walk-in closets with custom built-ins complete the master suite.

965 Fifth Avenue was built in 1938 and designed by Margon & Holder, one of the designers contributing to the construction of the iconic El Dorado alongside Emery Roth. It is a full-service, white-glove, luxury cooperative in a prime and quiet stretch of Fifth Avenue. Residents enjoy a full-time doorman, an elevator operator, gym, as well as private and bicycle storage. Pied-a-terre purchasers are permitted. Pets are welcome.

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.
