930 5TH Avenue #PHE

An exceptionally rare and prized offering of a 5-room 2-bedroom 2-bathroom penthouse duplex, with approximately 2,100 SF of sprawling outdoor space including a wrap-around first level terrace and a massive rooftop terrace showcasing expansive open views of Central Park, the New York City skyline, Billionaire's Row and beyond. Penthouse E at 930 Fifth Avenue has never been marketed before and presents an irresistible opportunity to fashion a remarkable and glorious Fifth Avenue trophy property atop an illustrious prewar cooperative on a prime corner of Fifth Avenue. Enter Penthouse E from a semi-private landing and be welcomed into a gracious and elegant central gallery off of which all rooms seamlessly flow. Streams of light draw you into an oversized living room with planting terrace beyond a wall of glass doors gazing South, capturing an enchanting medley of architecture stretching from the Upper East Side to Midtown along the lush background of Central Park and Billionaire's Row to the Southwest. Overhead, classically high prewar ceilings rise and there is a handsome marble wood-burning fireplace. In the North wing of the residence, a windowed eat-in kitchen leads you to a stunning glass-enclosed dining solarium equally ideal for quiet, sunny morning coffee or hosting a large party for dinner and cocktails at home beneath the stars. The solarium opens to a divine entertaining terrace with open city views to the North and East and a glorious vista of Central Park to the Northwest. Upstairs, an enormous rooftop terrace of approximately 1,200 SF is surrounded by a majestic panoramic showcase, with an open view over Central Park in the Southwest to the skyline of Lenox Hill in the East, and stretching as far South as Midtown and as far North as the George Washington Bridge. With three open exposures, the terrace features an awe-inspiring outlook of the cityscape of the Upper East Side, offering bird's eye views over glorious Upper East Side penthouses and iconic Manhattan architecture such as the Carlyle Hotel. There is one bedroom on each level of this penthouse duplex, but the space can be reimagined as per your needs. The primary suite currently occupies the Northwest corner on the first level of this home and is outfitted with extensive closet and storage space as well as an en-suite windowed bathroom with a stall shower and semi-enclosed water closet. Upstairs, there is a second bedroom also with en-suite windowed bathroom appointed with a soaking tub and bidet. Commanding the Northeast corner of Fifth Avenue and 74th Street, 930 Fifth Avenue is a top, full-service prewar cooperative on a prime corner of the avenue with Central Park at its doorstep. Designed by world-renowned architect Emery Roth and built in 1940, the lobby has been beautifully restored to its quintessential Fifth Avenue historic glory with marble floors, beautiful wood paneling and a marble fireplace. In addition to 24-hour doormen and a live-in resident manager, there is also a fitness center, private storage and a laundry room. Pieds-a-terre are permitted, though pets are not.
