Description

This private-floor home in one of Fifth Avenue’s premier fully-staffed boutique (only 12 residences) prewar buildings offers panoramic and unobstructed Central Park and skyline views from every room. The Fifteenth Floor at 969 Fifth Avenue is a gracious 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home with a grand double exposure living room, separate dining room, large master bedroom with en-suite bath, eat in kitchen and two additional bedrooms. Features include a wood-burning fireplace, in-unit washer/dryer, through-wall A/C and direct manned elevator access for privacy and security.

Oversized arched single-pane windows throughout the residence provide a perfect vantage point for the changing seasons of Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum, landmarked buildings of Central Park West including the Dakota and Beresford, and the Northern horizon all the way to the George Washington Bridge. 969 Fifth Avenue is perfectly situated on 5th Avenue and 78th Street, one of the very best blocks in the city. ‘The Henry Cook Block’ located between 78th – 79th Street and Fifth – Madison Avenues is the last remaining stretch on Fifth Avenue with all of its original landmarked low-rise mansions intact, thus affording the apartment uniquely open views to both the West and North. Please note that certain photos (where indicated) have been virtually staged and alternate floor plans have been provided for illustrative purposes. A 3% flip tax is payable by purchaser.
