Description

The best value on Fifth Avenue. Re-imagined and perfectly situated on a high floor in one of J.E.R. Carpenter's finest Carnegie Hill prewar cooperatives, this gracious and elegantly renovated classic six room home combines the best of old world style and grace, with modern finishes throughout. One enters the home from a semi-private landing into a gracious entrance gallery. Both the grand living room with wood-burning fireplace, as well as the master bedroom suite face south with sunny oblique Central Park views. The split second bedroom also has its own bathroom en suite. The formal dining room has been ingeniously opened to beautifully designed chef's kitchen, creating a very comfortable, less formal dining/family room. A separate staff room with full bathroom is perfectly situated in its own wing opposite the kitchen. Special features include high ceilings, washer/dryer, beautifully finished original oak floors, thru-wall air conditioning, several spacious closets including a master bedroom dressing room, and original prewar moldings. 1170 Fifth Avenue is a distinguished and luxury full service cooperative designed in 1926 and offers residents a live-in Super, private gym, bike storage as well as a separate private storage cage which trades with the apartment. Situated in the heart of Carnegie Hill, close to museums, fine restaurants, top schools, and charming neighborhood shops, this coveted cooperative also permits pied a terre as well as pets. Separate Special Assessment of $272.51/mo. until March 2021.

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.
