Description

An elegant corner co-op located directly on Central Park, this lovely 2-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home is a paradigm of classic Upper East Side luxury and charm. Features of the apartment include gorgeous parquet flooring, chic casement windows with northern and western exposure, airy beamed ceilings, a spacious maid's room, an in-unit washer/dryer, and sublime treetop views of the park.

Beyond a gracious foyer and gallery adorned with a large coat closet and a power room, the home flows into an expansive living and dining space that overlooks Central Park. The dining area flows into a windowed, galley-style kitchen equipped with tiled walls and floors, a separate service entrance, sleek countertops, and a suite of high-end stainless steel appliances. The master bedroom boasts his-and-hers walk-in closets and a private en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom has built-in shelving, a reach-in closet, and a windowed en-suite bathroom.

Situated in Lenox Hill across the street from Central Park, 875 Fifth Avenue is a white glove co-op built in 1941. The building was designed by Emery Roth and has a 24-hour doorman, a live-in building manager, attended elevators, a private fitness center, a bicycle room, a business center, a communal garden, and storage units. It is just steps from luxury restaurants, cafes, and shops, and is close to Central Park Zoo, The Mall, and The Frick Collection. The 6 subway line is three blocks away. Pieds-a-terre are welcome. No pets.
*This is a Nest Seekers exclusive.

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.
