Property Description for 880 Fifth Ave, 7-F
Blending classic grandeur with modern luxury and functionality, this exceptionally well-positioned classic-8 corner apartment boasts 53' of Central Park frontage, all outside rooms and is located in a premier Emery Roth cooperative.
Upon entering the home, you will be greeted by an elegant gallery from which the remainder of the home flows. A coat closet, and powder room with beautiful quartz countertop, complete the space and set the tone for what's to come.
Ideal for entertaining, the generous living room with hidden bar sits to the North and to the South a formal dining room that comfortably seats 10 or more. Adjacent to the dining room is the gorgeous, windowed, chef's eat-in kitchen. The kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances from Wolf, a Sub-zero fridge, custom cabinetry with automotive finish, breakfast bar, built-in wine cooler and an instant hot water dispenser. The strategically placed pantry and serving area remain out of view. The entire bedroom wing overlooks the Park and the spacious and tranquil master suite boasts iconic Central Park South views. Of the two additional bedrooms, one would make a fine home office, library or guest space.
A few of the many additional features added during the complete renovation include a full-sized front loading Electrolux stacked washer and dryer located next to the staff room, a new multi-zoned thermostatically controlled air-conditioning system, deluxe sound proof windows, Lutron system for lighting and black out shades. The unusual and welcome asset of the staff room is its accessibility by way of a side door off of the main hallway.
880 Fifth Avenue boasts a striking marble and glass lobby plus meticulously maintained interior garden that gives you the ever elusive "it's good to be home" feeling from the moment you enter. You will enjoy a remarkably high staff to resident ratio, live-in resident manager, three elevator banks, a separate entrance from 69th Street and a 24-hour attended parking garage with a discounted shareholder rate of $495 per month and one of the finest coop gyms in the city. 880 Fifth is a debt-free building with no deferred maintenance and allows up to 50% financing. Pied-a-Terre ownership is permitted. Regrettably, no dogs. The building also offers a professional air conditioned laundry room and the use of a storage unit is included.

Quick Profile
Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.
With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.
Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .
There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
