Description

Perched above the treetops of Central Park, and situated at one of the city’s most prestigious addresses, this glorious residence is offered to the market for the first time in more than fifty years. Throughout the residence, Rosario Candela’s celebrated genius as the architect of New York’s greatest residential edifices is in full evidence: the apartment’s proportions are expansive and pleasing, and the floor plan is utter perfection in terms of grandeur and elegance. The delightful entertaining rooms are all prominently situated to enjoy the glorious views of the Park. Majestic in scale, the Living Room, nearly 40 feet in length, offers views to the south and west as it wraps the corner, and the handsome Library and stately Dining Room follow en enfilade along the Avenue. Meanwhile the ample private wing, consisting of four bedrooms, is brilliantly situated along the southern flank of the building. The service component of the residence includes a large and bright eat-in Kitchen supported by an extensive Butler’s Pantry, a Laundry Room, an Office, and a double Staff Room. Perfectly located at East 77th Street, 960 Fifth Avenue is among the most celebrated and coveted addresses on the Upper East Side. Building amenities include a fabulous terraced penthouse gym, private storage, a full-time in-house French chef to cater dinners and parties, and use of the celebrated Georgian Room at 1 East 77th Street for private entertaining.
