955 5TH Avenue #2B

Classic in design and layout, one enters from a semi private landing, and is greeted by an expansive marble gallery with stunning custom bookshelves. The expansive great room offers one ample space for both living and dining while enjoying direct Central Park views. Tasteful moldings, 9" ceilings, and a handsome wood-burning fireplace with limestone mantle, are some of the wonderful prewar details reminiscent of the period.

The second bedroom has been outfitted into a comfortable den with tasteful built-ins, an elegant bathroom en suite, and quiet, sunny, courtyard views.
