This elegant Upper East Side residence at 980 Fifth Avenue starts with the building’s reputation for spectacular views; within are four bedrooms and an amount of living space most New Yorkers only dream of. Steps away you’ll find Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Museum, and other destinations that have immortalized the iconic neighborhood in film and legend. Asking $4,650,000, this sprawling co-op currently offers a cozy media room, plus numerous closets, a laundry room, a large pantry, central A/C, and fabulous city and park views.
The home begins with a 20-foot-long entry foyer. Expanses of wall space make it a perfect gallery.
The apartment’s interiors are anything but old-fashioned, with considered design showing through in ocean blue walls, built-in shelving, and mosaic tile flooring. Adjacent to the entry foyer are a home office and a powder room.
36 linear feet of living and dining space means entertaining is a pleasure. A spacious windowed eat-in kitchen features stone worktops, top-of-the-line appliances from Miele and Gaggenau, and a Dacor range. A laundry room and large pantry add to the functionality of the home’s heart.
The primary bedroom suite faces south for exquisite sunlight all day long. A wall of windows overlooks the neighborhood’s historic mansions. Two full walk-in closets and a luxurious bath round out the suite.
Down a private hallway are two more spacious bedrooms with large closets and a bath. Off the kitchen is another suite perfect for use as a media room, office or fourth bedroom.
The building features a newly-renovated modern lobby. Additional amenities at the full-service co-op include a rooftop observatory deck offering the kind of dazzling park and city views you’d expect from this perfectly-situated tower, plus a full-time doorman, concierge and live-in resident manager and private storage.
