Full-Floor Residence on Fifth Avenue with Expansive Central Park Views

Presenting a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make this stunning 11-room apartment your own. Situated in a coveted Emery Roth-designed building on Fifth Avenue, this full-floor residence boasts breathtaking, panoramic views of Central Park and beyond, offering an unmatched living experience. Although requiring a full renovation, the apartment offers excellent "bones" and an unparalleled layout, perfect for customizing to your exact tastes.

Designed with a classic separation of public and private spaces, this expansive apartment offers endless potential. The large formal entry gallery opens into the grand living and dining rooms making it perfect for hosting a large crowd or enjoying more intimate gatherings. With the flexibility to convert the apartment into a 5-bedroom home with a library or a 6-bedroom residence, there is no shortage of space for comfortable living.

From sunrise to sunset, the apartment is bathed in natural light, thanks to an abundance of large windows. The corner living room and adjacent dining room feature a combined 50 feet of Central Park frontage, with views of the iconic Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, the West Side, and Midtown to the south. The pin-drop quiet primary bedroom, which faces east and north, overlooks the charming brownstones of East 94th Street, while the south-facing rooms benefit from full, bright sunlight throughout the day. Western-facing windows offer spectacular sunsets, and even the north-facing rooms enjoy indirect light, creating a sun-drenched atmosphere across the entire space. Additionally, there are open northern views over the landmarked Willard D. Straight Mansion that stretch all the way to the George Washington Bridge.

The generously sized, corner-positioned primary bedroom offers ample opportunity for expansion, including the addition of a luxurious walk-in closet and an expanded en-suite bathroom. Both the living room and primary bedroom feature decorative fireplaces, providing the perfect setting for an eco-friendly hearth firebox to add warmth and character to the space.

1125 Fifth Avenue, a prestigious 1925 Emery Roth-designed building, is home to just 14 full-floor residences, offering privacy and security within an elegant setting. Residents of this full service cooperative enjoy access to an attractive new fitness room, and each unit comes with its own storage cage. The building permits financing up to $1,100,000 and there is a 3% flip tax paid by the buyer.

Located on the south corner of East 94th Street and Fifth Avenue, one of the most desirable blocks in the Carnegie Hill Historic District, this home offers convenient access to Central Park, a variety of beloved neighborhood boutiques and restaurants, top-tier schools, and excellent transportation options. This prime location, coupled with the opportunity to create your dream home, makes this property a rare and coveted find.
