Welcome home to Apartment 5F at the landmarked Wilbraham—a truly one-of-a-kind residence offering timeless charm in the heart of Manhattan’s dynamic NoMad neighborhood. This stylishly restored historic bachelor flat blends rich architectural details with modern-day comforts, making it a rare and inspiring find. The home features a handsome den, a convenient Pullman kitchen, and a spacious bathroom with a massive soaking tub—perfect for unwinding after a day in the city. The centerpiece is the stunning period-perfect main parlor, boasting 11’+ ceilings, gleaming hardwood floors, restored mahogany woodwork, and towering 10’ windows overlooking iconic Fifth Avenue—a perfect perch to catch parades or simply enjoy the energy of this ever-evolving neighborhood. Originally constructed in 1890 as a bachelor apartment hotel for “professional men of means,” and enhanced in 1935 by noted architect Emery Roth, the Wilbraham is a landmarked gem with a dramatic, fully restored lobby that transports you back in time. Live just steps from Madison Square Park, the Empire State Building, Madison Square Garden, and Eataly—with quick access to Penn Station, the LIRR, NJ Path, and major subway lines (B, D, F, M, N, Q, R, W, 1, 2, 3). Surrounded by NoMad’s world-class dining, shopping, and wellness destinations—including hot yoga at ID Yoga on the 2nd floor, just three floors above—Unit 5F offers the ultimate mix of history, style, and unbeatable location. A rare opportunity for buyers who appreciate architecture, artistry, and the authentic old-school New York.

NoMad | Manhattan

Quick Profile

NoMad, North of Madison Square Park, is a rectangular swath of land that is bordered by East 25th Street to the south, East 29th Street to the north, Sixth Avenue to the west, and depending who you ask, Madison or Lexington Avenue to the East. It’s had its acronymed name for over two decades but not every New Yorker calls the neighborhood NoMad.

Historic architecture, trendy hotels and restaurants and high-priced apartments - NoMad wasn’t always the coveted neighborhood that it is today. It’s gone through many transformations over the years. Including a red light district known as the Tenderloin in the 1880’s. It was a popular shopping destination and a place where high society held court in the mid 19th century. It was part of New York City’s Silicon Alley in the 1990’s.

As of lately, world class chefs and restaurants have moved into NoMad. It’s tied with Midtown Manhattan for having the most Michelin stars (six stars to date). Besides NoMad’s architecture, nightlife, and restaurants, we can’t forget the added perk of being close to other great neighborhoods and cultural institutions. NoMad’s central location makes it easier to get just about anywhere in the city. You can walk to Chelsea, West Village, Union Square or Grand Central Station in no time at all. The N, R, 1, 6, B, Q, F, and M are very close or just a few blocks away. Penn Station is also within walking distance.
