If the location of this five-bedroom co-op at 1165 Fifth Avenue–with Central Park just out the window and across the street–weren’t enough to make it a big deal, it’s a veritable sky-townhouse with co-op convenience. Asking $7,495,000, the 12-room duplex is a combination of two apartments, resulting in space galore, divided among colorful, livable, renovated rooms.
Enter on the 15th-floor entry foyer. A large living room features a wood-burning fireplace. Adjacent is a formal dining room. Nine-foot ceilings and herringbone floors frame the space.
A suitably grand-sized gourmet kitchen is welcoming, colorful and up to the task with a center island, white European-style cabinetry, and high-end appliances. A separate breakfast room invites casual dining, and two windows offer views of the park.
The primary bedroom on the other side of the 15th floor is a corner space with closets galore and a marble bath. The bedroom is joined by a corner library with a second full bath.
A custom stairway accesses the 14th floor. On this level, you’ll (eventually) find three more bedrooms and three baths.
Also on this lower level are a media/game room and a cozy den with a wood-burning fireplace. The apartment also has a separate laundry room and a colorful home office.
Despite the co-op’s timeless good looks, it comes with 21st-century necessities like central air-conditioning, upgraded electricity, and new windows. The co-op building offers a 24-hour doorman, a resident manager, a bike room, central laundry, a gym, and storage.
