Description

Welcome to The Muse on Fifth, located at 825 Fifth Avenue. Residence 12C - a residence of refined elegance with sweeping Central Park views is located in one of Fifth Avenue’s most distinguished buildings.

Designed by the acclaimed Pembrooke & Ives, the home boasts a spacious double living room with breathtaking vistas of Central Park and Midtown’s iconic skyline.

Exquisite materials from around the globe have been expertly crafted to create an interior that exemplifies timeless sophistication. This rarely lived-in apartment was initially conceived as a two-bedroom with easy conversion options.

Step into the grand entry foyer, where American Black Walnut veneer millwork conceals a fully equipped kitchen and a convenient coat closet. The dining area, artfully oval in shape and equipped with a wet bar and television, flows into the expansive, double-wide living room adorned with a Chenseys fireplace mantle and sweeping views over Central Park, Central Park West, and Midtown.

Behind a beautifully designed Walnut sliding door is the laundry area, guest closet, and guest bath. White Oak floors grace the apartment in its entirety.

The primary bedroom, offering tranquil views of the Upper East Side’s historic architecture, provides ample storage and closet space. Its en-suite bathroom is elegantly finished with honed Thassos marble, polished white onyx, and glassos.

Every detail in this remarkable home is executed with museum-quality finishes, from custom lighting and sound to mechanical systems integrated seamlessly for a luxurious living experience. The comprehensive renovation reaches deep into the structure, resulting in a level of quality that would be difficult to replicate today.

Designed by J.E.R. Carpenter, 825 Fifth Avenue is one of the most desirable pre-war buildings on Fifth Avenue. It offers its residents the highest level of service and security, including full-time doorman, porters, concierge, elevator attendant and a private, residents-only restaurant with room service.

Kindly note, this is an-all cash co-operative with a 3% flip-tax and welcomes pied-a-terre residents and pets.
