Property Summary
Description
Located on Greenwich Village’s coveted Gold Coast, this elegant one bedroom residence at 39 Fifth Avenue sits within one of the neighborhood’s most distinguished prewar cooperatives, designed by renowned architect Emery Roth and developed by Bing & Bing in 1922. The building’s historic character and Spanish Renaissance–inspired façade are complemented by full service amenities and an exceptionally central Village location. The apartment has been thoughtfully renovated and is in excellent condition, combining modern comforts with preserved prewar details. Oversized west facing windows frame iconic open views over church steeples and townhouse rooftops, capturing dramatic sunsets and filling the home with warm natural light. A gracious entrance foyer with two large coat closets leads into an expansive living room with approximately 10-foot ceilings and a wood burning fireplace, creating an ideal setting for both entertaining and quiet evenings at home. The windowed kitchen is outfitted with handsome taupe wood cabinetry and top tier appliances, offering efficient workflow and ample storage. The very large bedroom enjoys the same striking western exposures and open skyline vistas, providing a serene retreat with space for both sleeping and a sitting or work area. The windowed bathroom features a generous marble shower, and storage is exceptional throughout, including a beautifully outfitted, oversized walk in closet in addition to multiple other closets. Classic prewar elements run throughout the home, including original hardwood oak floors, detailed plaster moldings, and period hardware, lending a sense of timeless character. 39 Fifth Avenue is a full service cooperative with 24 hour doorman, live in resident manager, individual storage units, central laundry room, and bicycle storage. Pied à terre ownership is permitted, as are pets and in unit washer/dryers, subject to board approval, and there is a 2% flip tax due at closing.
