RARE DUPLEX AT ICONIC 880 FIFTH AVENUE WITH A SPECTACULAR 700 sq-ft TERRACE

Elegant 1 BR/2BA (CONVERTIBLE 2BR) DUPLEX residence at 880 Fifth Avenue, 12L, featuring an expansive approx. 700 sq-ft south and west-facing terrace with dazzling open city and partial park views. A rare offering, this home is the perfect pied-a-terre or full-time residence for the discerning individual seeking gracious living in an iconic and distinguished Emery Roth-designed luxury Fifth Avenue cooperative.

REFINED LIVING IN A LUXURIOUS SETTING: Elegance and refined space define this exceptional apartment. One of only a handful of duplexes at this celebrated address, spanning approx. 1924 sf with the terrace, this home combines timeless architectural details with the rarity of expansive private outdoor space. The apartment’s gracious interiors open onto a magnificent south and west-facing terrace with sweeping open views of the city skyline and partial park views.

GRACIOUS LIVING – ENTERTAIN IN STYLE: Off a semi-private landing, enter the apartment into a foyer leading to the main level of the duplex. The welcoming layout of the home is designed for grand entertaining and gracious living, with room for multiple seating areas and art displays. Soaring, over 10-foot-high ceilings, a decorative fireplace, and oversized windows enhance the light-filled living room, which flows into a dining area with room for large gatherings. The windowed kitchen off the dining area offers custom cabinetry, generous storage and in-unit W/D.

SPECTACULAR TERRACE WITH PANORAMIC VIEWS : A graceful art-deco inspired banister leads to the upper level, and to the spacious bedroom, library/sitting room, and spectacular terrace. Currently configured as a 1BR with a sitting room/library adjacent to the primary bedroom, the spacious upstairs floor plan offers versatility and flexibility to create an additional separate bedroom or guest room, subject to board approval.

The primary bedroom suite and adjoining library/sitting room flow seamlessly and open directly onto the spectacular approx. 700 sq-ft. terrace. Framing panoramic open city views to the south and partial views of Central Park to the west, this urban oasis is perfect for al-fresco dining, cocktail receptions, relaxing and lush plantings.

The large primary bedroom suite, with direct access to the terrace, features abundant closet space, and a spa-like bath with soaking tub and rain shower. The library/sitting room, with pocket doors opened or closed to the primary bedroom for privacy, also has floor-to-ceiling windows and direct access to the terrace. Walk-in closets and a wall of closets on the upper landing provide abundant storage.

Rarely does a home combine such architectural distinction, private outdoor space, and a premier Fifth Avenue address, directly across from Central Park.
