Description

Nestled in the heart of Manhattan’s prestigious Plaza District, this gracious one-bedroom apartment at 24 West 55th Street presents a rare opportunity to create a bespoke home of timeless sophistication. Set within a classic prewar cooperative, the apartment offers generous proportions, high ceilings and beautiful architectural bones, providing an ideal foundation for a thoughtful renovation. Currently in estate condition, this aerie awaits its next chapter — a discerning buyer’s vision brought to life. The true highlight is the exceptionally large private outdoor space that spans the width of the home and invites seamless indoor-outdoor living. There is also an additional smaller balcony that would be ideal for morning coffee and perusing the newspapers. Perfect for entertaining or quiet reflection, this rare urban sanctuary is a feature seldom found in Midtown. Perfectly positioned just moments from cultural institutions, Central Park, Fifth Avenue’s luxury boutiques, and world-renowned dining, this address offers unparalleled access to the best of New York City living. The Rockefeller Apartments are comprised of two buildings joined by an elegant courtyard and the co-operative is widely regarded as one of the finest Art-Deco landmarks found in the city. The building permits 75% financing. Pets and pied a terre ownership are allowed. There is a 2% flip tax paid by the buyer.
