Sweeping Views Over Central Park from the Fourteenth Floor



The Fourteenth Floor at 944 Fifth Avenue has the best views in the most coveted location on the Upper East Side. Not on offer for over sixty years, this perfectly scaled apartment is approximately 5,000 Sq Ft and enjoys glorious views over Central Park, as well as spectacular south, east and north views of the city skyline, presenting an unmatched opportunity to enjoy the best New York has to offer in one of its most refined settings. It is the highest full-floor apartment in this prestigious white glove building.



A private landing opens into a gracious foyer that leads to a living room perched over Fifth Avenue with sublime Central Park views. The living room and library can be combined to create a massive living space with over 70 feet of frontage on the Park. The enormous dining room offers a lavish entertainment venue with eastern exposures. Expansive openings between rooms provide a beautiful flow with full park views. Additional features include three wood burning fireplaces and stunning 10'6" ceilings throughout.



The grand corner primary bedroom has its own wood burning fireplace and four big windows framing magnificent south and west park views. It includes two ensuite baths as well as abundant walk-in closets.



An impressive hallway leads to three large, south facing bedrooms, as well as two staff rooms with baths and a laundry room. A second corner bedroom enjoys full south and east views. All have ensuite baths.



The large kitchen with north facing windows adjoins a butler's pantry that can easily be combined to expand into a larger kitchen.



Designed by architect Nathan Korn in 1925 in the Italian Renaissance Palazzo style, the building's provenance was the heyday of the "Roaring Twenties" and a golden era of residential building in New York. It converted to a cooperative in 1953. The splendid limestone facade is eloquently embellished with fine details. Residents are conscientiously served by a dedicated resident manager, as well as several doormen and handymen. A classic white glove building, 944 Fifth Avenue provides its residents privacy and superior service in a coveted Central Park setting. The building now permits 50% financing.
