Property Description for 936 Fifth Ave, 14-B
With corner views overlooking Central Park and vistas of three unique skylines, Unit 14B is a rare 3 bedroom, 4 bathroom offering at 936 Fifth Avenue, a luxury co-op building in the heart of New York’s Upper East Side. This high floor sun splashed residence features a center gallery layout of perfectly proportioned rooms, separating the private bedroom wing from the luxurious entertaining space. With oversized windows in every room, on a clear day you’ll see forever.
A welcoming entry opens to an expansive living room with views of the park to the north over the historic Harkness House just across the street. French doors lead to a formal dining room where you’ll host and entertain family and guests in grand style. Your dine-in renovated cook’s kitchen is perfectly appointed with stainless steel Sub-Zero, wine cooler, ample cabinetry, and kitchen island, providing more than enough counter space for even the most discerning home chefs. A stacked Bosch washer/dryer is tucked neatly behind a cabinet door. With windows on two sides, the kitchen boasts park views to the north and to the east the pretty townhouses vistas.
The primary bedroom is truly spectacular, overlooking the Central Park boat basin and lake with the splendid Dakota and San Remo Towers in the distance. The windowed primary bath has a double sink, deep tub and separate shower. The second and third bedrooms are equally spacious with gorgeous views of their own. There’s plenty of closet space throughout; additionally an oversized storage cage transfers with the sale.
Situated in the sweet spot of the East 70’s with an entrance on the tree lined East 75th Street, 936 Fifth provides privacy and white glove service. With only two apartments per floor and 28 apartments in the entire building, the co-op offers boutique living in a prime Upper East location. White glove service is provided by a full-time doorman, elevator attendant, resident manager and maintenance staff, and there’s a fully equipped gym. The co-op permits up to 50% financing, pied-a-terres, foreign buyers, and trust ownership. Dogs, sadly, are not allowed. There is a 4% flip tax to the buyer.
This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Fifth Avenue luxury with excellent amenities and breathtaking views. Schedule your private tour today!

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.
