From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Residences 2309 and 2311, The Sherry-Netherland, 781 Fifth Avenue. A one-bedroom and an adjoining studio on the 23rd floor, connected by an interior door and offered together. Used as one, they function as a two-bedroom, two-bath apartment with a separate living room and wet bar; closed off, they are two independent residences. Both have Central Park views and high ceilings. 2309 is a corner one-bedroom. A marble-floored foyer with a fitted wet bar leads to a living room with applied paneling, crown molding, a carved fireplace mantel, chandelier and sconces. The bedroom has windows on two exposures. The marble bath has a soaking tub, granite vanity and checkerboard floor. 2311, through the connecting door, is a generously sized studio with crown molding, two windows, room for a full sleeping and sitting area, and its own marble bath with soaking tub and checkerboard floor. It works as a second bedroom suite, a guest room, staff quarters or an office. Both apartments are sold furnished. The Sherry-Netherland was completed in 1927 by Schultze & Weaver, architects of The Pierre and the Waldorf-Astoria, and converted to cooperative ownership in 1954. It sits at Fifth Avenue and 59th Street, across from Central Park and The Plaza. Owners receive daily housekeeping, 24-hour doorman and concierge, attended elevators, valet parking, a fitness center, barber and salon, and room service from Harry Cipriani on the ground floor. Pets permitted. Pied-a-terre / LLC purchases permitted, subject to board approval.
