Apartment 3K is one of the most pleasant places to live in Manhattan. It is a pristine two-bedroom, two-bath residence at 880 Fifth Avenue, an exemplar of the Art Deco style in architecture, designed with mid-century panache by Emery Roth at one of the finest locations in the City. Welcomed by a doorman and concierge, one traverses a stunningly beautiful Moderne lobby replete with divine viewing garden. Ascend in an exquisite, bas-reliefed manned elevator to arrive in the generous entrance gallery of an exceptional apartment. An expansive living room unfolds to the south, overlooking a verdant block of East 69th Street lined with Beaux Arts townhouse facades. Flanking the central gallery is a handsome dining area. The newly renovated, windowed chefs kitchen contains custom tile and cabinetry, granite counters, a Viking range, top of the line appliances and a Viking wine fridge. The separate bedroom wing is comprised of a large sunny master chamber with ensuite marble bath. A lovely second bedroom and a hall bath for guests is now used as a library. This carefully planned apartment is in superb, move in condition, featuring new oversized windows, through wall AC, fine oak flooring and myriad closets. The site was once occupied by two historic mansions housing NY Governor Averill Harriman and mining magnate and philanthropist Adolph E. Lewisohn, just opposite an entrance to Central Park. 880 Fifth Avenue offers consummate 24h white glove service overseen by a wonderful resident manager, a garage with discounted rates for residents, a cutting-edge gym with a yoga/Pilates space, an individual storage bin for each apartment and bike and laundry rooms. Pieds a terre and cats OK. Sorry, no dogs.
