Property Description

Classic Fifth Avenue Elegance with Grand Scale and LightPLEASE NOTE: SOME PHOTOS HAVE BEEN DIGITALLY STAGED.With an entrance on pretty, tree-lined East 73rd Street, 920 Fifth Avenue is ideally located and recognized for its lovely limestone-clad façade and the architecturally pleasing apartments within. Designed by J.E.R. Carpenter in 1922, the residences are defined by their generous proportions and scale, tall ceilings, and elegant detail. From a private elevator landing, this gracious and welcoming residence offers a marvelous circular floor plan with endless flexibility and delightful, high-floor light and open outlooks. This residence retains its magnificent prewar details?fireplaces, hardwood floors, 10-foot ceilings, and architectural detail ?while offering abundant potential for customization to a modern lifestyle.The amply-sized Gallery opens to an impressively-scaled corner Living Room, nearly 28 in length and featuring oversized windows facing north and east with sweeping views above the surrounding, landmarked townhouses. Adjoining is the Formal Dining Room, equally grand in scale, perfect for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining. Both rooms are blessed with fireplaces. Beyond, the spacious windowed eat-in Kitchen offers abundant storage and a breakfast area or laundry room, with potential to be transformed into a chefs dream. Bedrooms are serene and private. A distinct hallway separates the Bedrooms from the public areas, a Carpenter hallmark. The current oversized Primary Bedroom features a Dressing Room and two ensuite bathrooms, as well as very open eastern views and endless morning sunlight. There are two additional Bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath and very ample closets. 920 Fifth Avenue is one of the Upper East Sides most prestigious cooperatives, with a white-glove staff, 24-hour doormen, a resident manager, state-of-the-art fitness center, private roof terrace for shareholders, and private storage. Financing up to 50% is permitted, and there is a 2% flip tax payable by the purchaser. Pets are welcome.
