Description

NEW PRICE! A sleek and luxuriously appointed Fifth Avenue home with direct views of Central Park, The Plaza Hotel and Grand Army Plaza through oversized picture windows in a glorious Gold Coast white-glove cooperative. Residence 3C at Parc V presents a gracious 6-into-5 room layout, boasting high ceilings and elevated doorways that lend an air of grandeur throughout. This sprawling home offers an elegant double living room, an expansive formal dining room, an enlarged windowed eat-in kitchen, and a serene primary suite.

With approximately 2,400 SF of interior space, Residence 3C is perfect for those seeking an extravagant pied- -terre or a full-time residence with flexibility for up to 3 bedrooms as originally configured in one of Manhattan's most coveted locales.

A marble foyer crowned with tiered molding overhead welcomes you home, ushering you into a grand living room where Central Park, The Plaza Hotel and illustrious New York City architecture all unfold before you. There is a handsome, intricately carved decorative marble fireplace anchoring the room, crafting an air of sophistication enhanced by rich, dark-stain herringbone wood floors that can be found throughout the entire home.

With extensive contiguous Fifth Avenue frontage stretching over 30 ft, views of Central Park continue from the formal living room into an adjacent second entertaining or lounging area. Here, there is a marvelously equipped wet bar with a dedicated prep sink, an undercounter wine fridge, an integrated undercounter refrigerator and a mirrored back bar to reflect the park foliage outside.

The wet bar extends seamlessly into a wall of custom modern millwork providing additional shelving and storage.

For those who entertain at scale, the formal dining room easily accommodates the largest of gatherings or dinner parties, serviced by an adjacent triple-windowed chef's kitchen with a dedicated breakfast area for your more casual meals. Clad in white marble and abundant custom cabinetry from floor to ceiling, the kitchen is complete with a suite of all top-of-the-line appliances including a French door-style Subzero refrigerator/freezer, a Viking stove with suspended hood as well as an integrated Miele dishwasher. The entertaining areas are all serviced by a central powder room discreetly located off of the gallery, and there is an additional full bathroom with a stall shower off of the kitchen.

The sumptuous primary suite features an array of custom built-ins and closeting, including one large walk-in which has been fully outfitted with custom millwork and storage.

An enlarged 5-fixture primary bathroom is dressed completely in marble, warmed by cove lighting overhead. There is a deep, marble-encased soaking tub, a separate glass-enclosed stall shower as well as an oversized floating double vanity to provide added storage.

Additional features found throughout this home include custom marble window ledges (with built-in HVAC units), electronic shades and dimmable recessed lighting. There is also a Miele washer and dryer in-unit.

The Parc V is one of Fifth Avenue's finest white-glove cooperatives, perfectly situated at the southern edge of Central Park and surrounded by some of Manhattan's most prestigious landmark buildings, including The Plaza, The Sherry Netherland and The Pierre, and at the center of the city's finest culture, shopping and dining.

Built in 1963 by renowned architectural firm Emery Roth & Sons, the limestone-clad Parc V offers its discerning residents full-time lobby attendants, a live-in resident manager, a newly renovated fitness room, private storage, a central laundry room and a parking garage. The lobby has just undergone a stunning designer renovation, and service includes mail and newspaper delivery right to your door. Monthly maintenance is inclusive of utilities.

Financing is up to 50% and there is flip tax of 2.5% payable by buyer. Pieds-a-terre are welcome. Unfortunately, pets are not.
