Mint Prewar Residence on Fifth Avenue

Magnificently renovated classic 8 in a prestigious limestone prewar cooperative, ideally located at Fifth Avenue and 73rd Street. This exceptional two year renovation achieved a stunning modern aesthetic while still preserving the impressive detail and proportions of this classic prewar home, all designed by David Kleinberg. Oversized windows, soaring ceilings, and luxurious finishes are just some of the highlights of this exquisite sundrenched residence.

No attention to detail has been spared from the top-of-the-line Scavolini designed chef’s kitchen and Dornbracht fixtures throughout, to the brand new systems including central air conditioning, electrical wiring, radiant heated floors in all bathrooms, Sonos sound system and state of the art home security system.

A limestone clad private landing opens into an elegant gallery fitted with a limestone floor with a rich dark wood border. The gallery has a coat closet and a newly added oversized powder room also clad in limestone & slate, and has a hammered steel sink. Off the gallery is the enormous corner living room, which has beautiful views over the Pulitzer Mansion and the elegant townhouses on East 73rd Street.

The living room has ample space for multiple seating areas, a wood burning fireplace with a limestone mantle, and a doublewide entrance into the adjacent dining room. The North-facing dining room can easily seat 18 guests and has oblique Central Park views and excellent wall space for art.

Located discretely off the dining room is the chef’s windowed eat-in kitchen facing South. A custom-made terrazzo floor carries through the kitchen into the den, maid’s room and laundry area.

Miele appliances including two dishwashers, a refrigerator & freezer, two wall ovens, a 5-burner induction cooktop, and coffee maker enhance the sleek modern designed space. There is also a triple zoned 84 bottle wine refrigerator, two sinks, and a breakfast area that can easily seat six. Flowing off the kitchen is a built-in home office that opens into an amazing den/library/media room.

A laundry area, maid’s room & full bathroom complete this wing of the residence.

The private bedroom wing is located off the gallery. The Southeast facing double master bedroom suite was created by combining two bedrooms. This generous space includes a sitting area and windowed dressing space that has three walls of oversized custom closets.

There are two full windowed marble bathrooms in the suite-one clad in Bianco Dolomite marble with a Jacuzzi, spa shower, and spacious vanity; the other has a handsome Olympic Grey marble with spa shower and vanity. The secondary bedroom located at the end of the bedroom corridor is the original master bedroom, and provides an ample suite complete with custom closets and en-suite marbled window bathroom with tub & shower.

920 Fifth Avenue is a white glove prewar cooperative designed in the Italian palazzo style by J.E.R Carpenter in 1922. The building is comprised of 14 stories and 26 apartments.

Carpenter was one of the two most prominent architects of the period, and he chose this building as his home. Residents enjoy the highest level of service and security, as well as a roof terrace and private storage. The brand new fitness center includes state of the art Technogym Equipment, a Peloton Bike and a full Pilates Reformer.
