For $5.8M, this Fifth Avenue co-op has ‘Mad Men’-era vibes and Central Park views

With its mid-20th-century sophistication and sleek design, this one-bedroom co-op at 825 Fifth Avenue, currently owned by an art collector, offers the classic Manhattan elegance of a bygone age, but the Central Park views from this covetable Upper East Side address are timeless. The apartment, asking $5,795,000, is set up as a showcase of art and design for a busy city lifestyle.

A thorough renovation resulted in carefully selected finishes that showcase custom lighting and sound and updated mechanicals. With interiors by Pembrooke & Ives, the apartment was once a two-bedroom home, and can easily be converted back to that configuration.

The elegant entry foyer, lined in sleek American black walnut millwork, artfully conceals a fully equipped kitchen. The sculpted oval dining area is served by a built-in wet bar.

In the current layout, the home’s main space is a palatial double living room with the Manhattan skyline on display. A walnut-clad sliding door conceals a laundry area, guest closet, and second bath. This sizable space could be easily converted to a second bedroom (see alternate floor plan in the gallery below).

The primary bedroom has plenty of closet space and skyline views. The attendant en-suite bath is a study in sophisticated design, lined in honed Thassos marble and polished white onyx.

The J.E.R. Carpenter-designed pre-war building offers a full-time doorman, porters, a concierge, an elevator attendant, and a private, residents-only restaurant with room service. The pet-friendly building is an all-cash co-op with a three percent flip tax.
