Property Description for 785 Fifth Ave, 3-C

NEW PRICE! A sleek and luxuriously appointed Fifth Avenue home with direct views of Central Park, The Plaza Hotel and Grand Army Plaza through oversized picture windows in a glorious Gold Coast white-glove cooperative. Residence 3C at Parc V presents a gracious 6-into-5 room layout, boasting high ceilings and elevated doorways that lend an air of grandeur throughout. This sprawling home offers an elegant double living room, an expansive formal dining room, an enlarged windowed eat-in kitchen, and a serene primary suite. With approximately 2,400 SF of interior space, Residence 3C is perfect for those seeking an extravagant pied-a-terre or a full-time residence with flexibility for up to 3 bedrooms as originally configured in one of Manhattan's most coveted locales.

A marble foyer crowned with tiered molding overhead welcomes you home, ushering you into a grand living room where Central Park, The Plaza Hotel and illustrious New York City architecture all unfold before you. There is a handsome, intricately carved decorative marble fireplace anchoring the room, crafting an air of sophistication enhanced by rich, dark-stain herringbone wood floors that can be found throughout the entire home.

With extensive contiguous Fifth Avenue frontage stretching over 30 ft, views of Central Park continue from the formal living room into an adjacent second entertaining or lounging area. Here, there is a marvelously equipped wet bar with a dedicated prep sink, an undercounter wine fridge, an integrated undercounter refrigerator and a mirrored back bar to reflect the park foliage outside. The wet bar extends seamlessly into a wall of custom modern millwork providing additional shelving and storage.

For those who entertain at scale, the formal dining room easily accommodates the largest of gatherings or dinner parties, serviced by an adjacent triple-windowed chef's kitchen with a dedicated breakfast area for your more casual meals. Clad in white marble and abundant custom cabinetry from floor to ceiling, the kitchen is complete with a suite of all top-of-the-line appliances including a French door-style Subzero refrigerator/freezer, a Viking stove with suspended hood as well as an integrated Miele dishwasher. The entertaining areas are all serviced by a central powder room discreetly located off of the gallery, and there is an additional full bathroom with a stall shower off of the kitchen.

The sumptuous primary suite features an array of custom built-ins and closeting, including one large walk-in which has been fully outfitted with custom millwork and storage. An enlarged 5-fixture primary bathroom is dressed completely in marble, warmed by cove lighting overhead. There is a deep, marble-encased soaking tub, a separate glass-enclosed stall shower as well as an oversized floating double vanity to provide added storage.

Additional features found throughout this home include custom marble window ledges (with built-in HVAC units), electronic shades and dimmable recessed lighting. There is also a Miele washer and dryer in-unit.

The Parc V is one of Fifth Avenue's finest white-glove cooperatives, perfectly situated at the southern edge of Central Park and surrounded by some of Manhattan's most prestigious landmark buildings, including The Plaza, The Sherry Netherland and The Pierre, and at the center of the city's finest culture, shopping and dining. Built in 1963 by renowned architectural firm Emery Roth & Sons, the limestone-clad Parc V offers its discerning residents full-time lobby attendants, a live-in resident manager, a newly renovated fitness room, private storage, a central laundry room and a parking garage. The lobby has just undergone a stunning designer renovation, and service includes mail and newspaper delivery right to your door. Monthly maintenance is inclusive of utilities. Financing is up to 50% and there is flip tax of 2.5% payable by buyer. Pieds-a-terre are welcome. Unfortunately, pets are not.

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.
