Description
860 Fifth Avenue, Residence 6K
2,900 Sq Ft | 3 Bedrooms | 3 Baths | Central Park View Co-op | Fifth Avenue, East 60s
Expansive Central Park views unfold from the living room, formal dining room, primary bedroom, and one of the guest rooms -- complemented by a large park-facing balcony that brings outdoor living to Fifth Avenue without interrupting the living room's expansive Central Park views.
A proper foyer opens into a grand L-shaped living room of exceptional proportion. The living room anchors the residence, flowing seamlessly into both the formal dining room and entrance foyer -- an open public-room layout ideal for modern entertaining while preserving classic Fifth Avenue scale. Western exposures deliver beautiful afternoon light over Central Park, while eastern exposures bring bright morning light, creating a luminous home from sunrise through late day.
The home's two-bedroom-wing layout creates exceptional privacy between the primary suite and guest accommodations -- a configuration that is rare and is especially prized in Fifth Avenue co-ops.
The windowed kitchen is designed for daily living and entertaining, featuring white lacquer cabinetry, granite countertops, a Miele cooktop and a Miele wall oven, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Miele microwave, two wine refrigerators, and a butler's pantry. There is a breakfast area with warm terracotta flooring. Off the kitchen is separate laundry room with a full washer & dryer, and sink. A service entrance in the kitchen adds great convenience.
The primary suite occupies its own private wing with two exposures -- direct Central Park views and northward vistas up Fifth Avenue. The suite is anchored by a three-way mirrored dressing area and generously sized fitted walk-in closet, with additional closets totaling four and a marble bath with double vanity, soaking tub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower.
The secondary wing includes two spacious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite marble bath. One guest room faces Central Park; the other enjoys bright morning light from the east and built-ins.
The residence has been impeccably staged. The curated furnishings may be purchased separately for a truly turnkey move-in.
Designed by Sylvan Bien in 1950, 860 Fifth Avenue is a premier white-glove cooperative with full-time doorman, elevator operators, porter, live-in resident manager, fitness room, bike room, central laundry, and an on-site garage with discounted shareholder rates. Pets (subject to board approval), pied-a-terre ownership, co-purchasing, and secondary residence use permitted. Financing up to 50%. 2% flip tax payable by purchaser.
For those who understand Fifth Avenue, the pricing represents an unusually attractive basis for this scale, view exposure, and outdoor space in the East 60s.
