Description

Welcome to this spacious, south facing and sunny classic five Fifth Avenue home at the corner of 68th street. The apartment features a fabulous 32 by 14-foot living room, a dining room, 2 generously sized bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. This space is ideal for entertaining or just as an ideal private New York City pied-a-terre, close to top museums, galleries, great shopping and amazing dining options. The gracious entry foyer flows directly into a fabulous and luminous living room with south exposure and indirect views of Central Park.

On the left side of the entry foyer, you will find a separate dining room. It is located right by a windowed kitchen that can also be accessed by a service entrance. On the private wing of the apartment, a convenient little corridor separates the public space from the bedrooms. Therefore, creating a sense of privacy for the apartment residents.

The functional layout provides 2 spacious winged bedrooms. Each bedroom has space large enough to accommodate a king size bed with a sitting area or with a desk. One of the bedrooms has a en-suite bath and a walk-in closet.

The primary bedroom, facing south has angled views of Central Park. The second bedroom is quiet; it overlooks the building’s courtyard and features custom built-ins. There are 2 marble bathrooms located next to each bedroom, one features a shower and the other one a large soaking tub. The apartment needs some TLC.

You could easily transform this fabulous space into the home of your dream. Sorry no W/D. A spacious and well-ventilated laundry room is located in the building premises for your convenience. There are hard wood floors and plenty of closets throughout. 870 Fifth Avenue is a white glove building at the corner of Fifth Ave.
