825 5TH Avenue #15FLR

A radiant jewel in the sky, the entire 15th floor at 825 Fifth Avenue is enveloped in magnificent natural light-golden by day and twinkling by night; in any light, revealing a canvas that is nothing short of transcendent. This one-of-a-kind home has no parallel on the market today, and likely never will again. A true rarity in one of Manhattan's most storied cooperatives which the architectural critic Christopher Gray referred to as the tall, elegant, redhead of Fifth Avenue, this full-floor offering is the singular opportunity to own an ultra-luxury residence unlike any other-unrepeatable, extraordinary, and crafted to perfection. As proclaimed in Cole Porter's lyric- Night and day, this is the one! Masterfully reimagined by Pembrooke & Ives and years in the making, this triple-mint, down-to-the-studs renovation combines state-of-the-art infrastructure with graceful, classical proportions and sublime detailing throughout. Direct elevator access opens into a sweeping, sun-drenched entrance gallery that sets the tone for the entire residence. Spanning all four exposures, the apartment is luminous, bathed in natural light and showcases panoramic views from every angle and room. Three private terraces elevate the sense of indoor/outdoor serenity-including a spectacular 36-foot-deep western terrace adjoining the grandly scaled living and dining rooms, and two sunrise-facing terraces at the northeastern and southeastern corners. Interior highlights include an opulent corner library with wet bar, expansive kitchen with butler's pantry, a sun-filled solarium, and a magnificent double-width living/dining room facing Central Park. The sumptuous primary suite offers dual baths and a dressing room, and is complemented by two additional bedrooms, or flexible home office spaces, and two and a half more bathrooms. Every inch of this residence speaks to meticulous craftsmanship, intelligent design, and an uncompromising standard of luxury living. In a cooperative building renowned for discretion and prestige, this home is a once-in-a-lifetime masterpiece ready to welcome its next steward.
