Property Description for 955 Fifth Ave, 7-A

Newly Renovated Two-Bedroom with Sweeping Central Park Views A rare opportunity to own a masterfully renovated residence with commanding Central Park frontage at one of Fifth Avenue’s most prestigious addresses. This home offers over 2,300 square feet of beautifully proportioned interiors, combining grand entertaining spaces with an impeccable, design-driven renovation. With sweeping park views and luminous western light, this elegant two-bedroom home delivers both glamour and livability. The residence was thoughtfully reimagined by renowned architecture and design studio Stonefox, building upon the refined modernism originally created by legendary designer Ward Bennett. The result is a sophisticated dialogue between classic prewar architecture and contemporary craftsmanship, executed with exceptional materials and state-of-the-art technology. The expansive living room spans nearly 30 feet of Central Park frontage and features oversized picture windows that flood the space with natural light by day and dramatic sunset views by evening. A fireplace anchors the room, while dual seating areas and discreet recessed art lighting create an ideal environment for both intimate living and grand entertaining. The inviting dining room is equally suited to formal dinners or relaxed gatherings. The stunning kitchen features Celador stone countertops, Imperial Vermont Danby marble backsplash, and top-of-the-line appliances, offering both beauty and performance for the serious cook. The primary bedroom suite is a serene retreat, highlighted by custom cerused oak millwork in the dressing rooms and a spa-like en-suite bath clad in honed Olympia White Vermont Danby marble. A newly redesigned second bedroom with a full bath and leather-topped writing desk provides exceptional flexibility for guests or a refined home office. Additional features include washer and dryer, Lutron lighting system, motorized window shades, and fully upgraded electrical and AV infrastructure throughout the apartment. A private storage room transfers with the residence. Built in 1938, 955 Fifth Avenue is an intimate and distinguished Rosario Candela prewar cooperative offering full-service amenities, including twenty-four-hour doormen, resident building manager, landscaped roof terrace with panoramic city and park views, well-equipped fitness room, and bike storage. Pets are permitted, and financing of up to 50% is allowed. 3% flip tax plus a one time $5,000 capital contribution fee for the gym. Ideally situated between East 76th and 77th Streets on Fifth Avenue, this prime Upper East Side location is moments from Central Park, Madison Avenue boutiques, and world-class cultural institutions including The Frick Collection and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, as well as some of Manhattan’s finest dining. This is a turnkey Fifth Avenue residence of uncommon quality—where timeless architecture, iconic views, and modern luxury converge.

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.
