Property Description for 795 Fifth Ave, 3804

The Pierre Tower -38th Fl - on the Park

Steeped in history, this spectacular tower residence perched on the Northwest corner of the 38th floor in the iconic Pierre Hotel is a stunningly renovated aerie. Once owned by Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Burge and then by Giancarlo Giammetti, the longtime business partner of Valentino fashion designer Valentino Garavani, this apartment is stylish and perfect for entertaining and sophisticated living. The gracious layout includes 2-bedrooms, 2-bathrooms, and soaring 11-foot ceilings. No attention to detail was spared in this Peter Marino renovation - elements include Parquet de Versailles floors, faux treated walls, and custom lighting for artwork.

Upon entering, the apartment there is an ebony paneled foyer accented by antique mirrored panels that opens into the gallery. Flowing discretely off the gallery is the renovated kitchen, which has ample storage. The breathtaking 31-foot Northwest corner living/dining room has four casement windows capturing the expanse of Central Park over to Central Park West up to the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir and beyond. Natural light floods the room all day. The generous proportions allow for multiple seating areas and a dining table for entertaining.

Opening off the living/dining room through an entryway flanked by custom bookcases on either side is the second bedroom. This room is currently configured as a library, but with a dressing room & full bathroom it can easily transition into a proper bedroom. This room has handsome oak paneling, custom bookshelves, and open North Park views over townhouses. Hidden off the library is a custom dressing room and marbled bathroom with soaking tub; this bathroom has access back to the main foyer allowing it to function as the guest bath as well. Completing this home is the master bedroom outfitted with Venetian plaster walls and two large casement windows overlooking Central Park and the stunning Manhattan midtown skyline. It has a spacious walk-in custom closet and luxurious marbled bathroom. The room has two entrances, one off the main gallery and another through a hidden doorway into the living/dining room.

Residents of The Pierre enjoy access to all hotel services including 24-hour concierge, daily maid service, valet service, and Fitness Center. They also enjoy room service from the Perrine Restaurant.

Upper East Side | Manhattan

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.
