1165 Fifth Ave. #1A

Within the glorious Museum Mile and across from Central Park’s East Meadow lies a charming, spacious pre-war seven room home. Impeccable details abound including original herringbone wood floors, beamed ceilings and a gracious foyer and entryway. A multifunctional gallery provides flexibility in this home and great opportunities for entertaining. It can be used to expand the dining area for a special occasion or to extend the living space off the formal living room.

As in many homes, the kitchen is often the center of activity – and this spacious windowed eat-in country kitchen has state-of-the-art appliances, generous counter and storage. Adjacent to the kitchen is a full size laundry room and storage area. Along with ample closets within the home, there is a large private storage space in the basement dedicated to the apartment. Accentuating the home is its unique layout which separates the living and sleeping quarters. A long hallway with entrances on both ends contains the three bedrooms which all have a view of Central Park. The master has an ensuite bath with extensive closet space including two separate walk-ins. As a special addition – live-work space is possible thanks to the maisonette entrance on Fifth Avenue which has shared waiting area.

This classic pre-war 24-hour doorman building is pet friendly and has a gym/exercise room. It was designed by James Edwin Ruthven Carpenter, one of Fifth Avenue’s premiere architects. Enjoy Carnegie Hill shopping and restaurants on Madison Avenue, Central Park’s Conservatory Gardens and nearby North Meadow Recreation Center. The area’s numerous museums offer a grand variety of exhibits and activities – and the Fifth Avenue mansions each has a story to tell.
