Property Description for 875 Fifth Ave, 3-D
Set in one of the finest prewar cooperatives on Fifth Avenue's Gold Coast, Apartment 3D at 875 Fifth Avenue is an elegant 2 bedroom/3 bathroom property that has been in the same family since the building's construction in 1941 and is awaiting its next chapter.
Through the genius of renowned architect Emory Roth, the intuitively laid out floorplan offers large rooms arranged with careful thought to privacy, comfort and ease of lifestyle. 42 feet from tip to tail, the living room and dining room meet at a gracious central hall foyer with deep entry closet and stylish period dry bar. The living room features an elaborate period stone mantel carved by local craftsmen on Long Island. The square dining room is perfect for banquette or round table seating. The distinctive angled casement windows with brass hardware, high ceilings, Miami Art Deco style crown moldings, newly refinished, hardwood floors and brass door handles are prized signature elements of architect Emory Roth's Jazz Age Moderne style.
The windowed kitchen includes a breakfast room. The original staff room can be reclaimed from this space with its ensuite full bathroom to provide for a third small bedroom. The bedroom wing offers split primary and secondary bedrooms. The nearly 24 foot long primary bedroom, easily accommodating a king sized bed, faces leafy 69th Street and features an oversized bathroom with separate bathtub and shower. The second full bathroom is in the hallway, allowing use as a guest powder room. Both bedrooms feature many spacious closets. Shareholders may apply to the board to install a washer/dryer. A remarkable opportunity to create a home to your exact specifications, Apartment 3D is an irresistible window into New York's golden past.
Located across from New York's Central Park, 875 Fifth Avenue is a premiere full service white glove cooperative with 24 hour doormen, porters and live-in superintendent. The building offers a gym (fee), storage, business center, industrial laundry room, and garden. 50% financing and pied-a-terres are permitted, but no pets are allowed. 4% flip tax is paid by the buyer. Easy transportation includes the Fifth Avenue bus line, Eastside subways 4, 5 and 6. The finest Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue shopping, Michelin starred restaurants and iconic entertainment are nearby in this prime gold coast location.
There is a $217/month capital assessment in place through March 2026.

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.
