Property Description for 880 Fifth Ave, 7-G
Apartment 7G in Emery Roth's 880 Fifth Avenue is a two bedroom, two bathroom apartment and the pinnacle of sophistication.
Meticulously renovated, the home boasts Southern exposures with side views of Central Park and approx. 1,425 square feet. Designed to re-imagine elements of classic New York architecture while simultaneously incorporating modern functionality, the apartment exudes a restrained refinement brought to life by way of the custom moldings, paneled walls and bordered hardwood floors.
The entry foyer, complete with generous walk-in closet, graciously welcomes you and leads either to the living room or the dining area. The dining area is the perfect space for an evening of entertaining and the spacious living room offers a relaxing respite from city life. The windowed chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, Wolff oven and vent, Sub-Zero fridge and Miele microwave make cooking at home a delight. King-sized master suite with en suite bathroom features a large soaking tub and glass shower plus a custom outfitted walk-in closet. The second bedroom, a nursery in its current iteration, would make for an ideal home office should one prefer. Brand new HVAC system, double-paned large picture windows, full-sized washer and dryer and gas fireplace are a few of the many highlights added during the recent renovation where no detail was overlooked.
880 Fifth Avenue, a premier Fifth Avenue cooperative, welcomes you into a striking marble and glass lobby with a meticulously maintained interior garden. One enjoys a remarkably high staff to resident ratio, live-in resident manager, three elevator banks, a separate entrance from 69th Street, a stunning gym and a 24-hour attended parking garage with a discounted shareholder rate. 880 Fifth is debt-free with no deferred maintenance and allows up to 50% financing. Pied-a-Terre ownership is permitted though regrettably, no dogs. The building also offers a professional air conditioned laundry room and the use of a storage unit transfers with purchase.

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.
