From the original listing · Realtor.comShow

Enjoy a remarkable full-floor residence overlooking Central Park, offering approximately 5,000 square feet of townhouse-scale living on a single level, with 57 feet of direct park frontage from one of Fifth Avenue's most distinguished addresses. An extraordinary expanse of oversized windows opens directly onto Central Park, capturing sweeping views west across the landscape and south toward the Manhattan skyline. Positioned at an ideal height to appreciate the Park's natural beauty, the residence offers an exceptional sense of light, openness, and connection to its surroundings. With proportions rarely found in a single-floor apartment and a compelling value proposition for its scale and location, this is a unique opportunity to experience the pinnacle of New York living. The home encompasses 12 rooms, five bedrooms, and five full bathrooms, with extraordinary light and exposures in every direction. Unusually large windows frame uninterrupted Central Park views to the west, complemented by sweeping perspectives north and south along Fifth Avenue. The combination of expansive window frontage, townhouse-like proportions, and open outlooks creates a sense of space and airiness throughout. Renowned architect John Saladino brings a sense of quiet sophistication throughout, balancing grand proportions with warmth and intimacy. While retaining the elegance and architectural character of a distinguished residence, the home has an ease and comfort that lends itself beautifully to modern family life. Its generous proportions feel inviting rather than formal, offering the space and flexibility to accommodate both everyday living and large-scale entertaining. A private elevator landing opens to an entry gallery and beautifully scaled entertaining rooms, including a gracious living room with coffered ceiling and decorative stone fireplace, a formal dining room for large gatherings, and a library that can also serve as a fifth bedroom. Generous wall space throughout provides an exceptional backdrop for art. The corner eat-in kitchen is bright and substantial, while the private bedroom wing is anchored by an impressive primary suite overlooking Central Park. The suite includes custom Saladino-designed closets, a sunlit windowed bath, and a private lounge wrapped in bespoke fabric walls. An additional bedroom suite also enjoys direct park views. The adjoining south wing lends a more relaxed dimension to the residence, with a second living room, dining area, kitchen, and washer/dryer. A second primary-scale suite captures both Central Park and southern skyline views and includes a walk-in closet, en-suite bath, and adjoining study, fitness room, or dressing room. Offered exclusively as the combined sale of 10A and 10B, the residence also includes two large dedicated storage units. Set at Fifth Avenue and East 75th Street, 936 Fifth Avenue is a distinguished cooperative offering white-glove service, including a full-time doorman and elevator attendant, as well as a fitness center and laundry room. The building permits 50% financing and cats and service dogs. A 4% flip tax is payable by the buyer.
