Description
This oversized one-bedroom cooperative at the iconic Rockefeller Apartments offers a gracious and grand layout, generous proportions, and lovely north-facing exposures overlooking 55th Street. A signature feature of the home is the distinctive circular dining nook, framed by a curved wall of windows that brings architectural character and additional natural light into the space. The expansive living room provides ample space for both comfortable seating and entertaining, while the separate dining nook creates a natural setting for meals just off the kitchen. Included is the ornate decorative fireplace anchoring this expansion layout. Throughout this pin drop quiet residence, the building's celebrated prewar architecture is evident in its elegant proportions, distinctive casement windows, and thoughtful layout. The grand bedroom is exceptionally spacious, easily accommodating a king-sized bed along with substantial additional furnishings while still maintaining an open and airy feel. Generous closet space throughout the apartment further enhances the functionality of this remarkably well-proportioned home. Considered one of New York's finest examples of 1930s International Style residential architecture, the Rockefeller Apartments at 24 West 55th Street and 17 West 54th Street are twin buildings connected by a beautifully restored landscaped garden oasis.

Residents may enter from either 54th or 55th Street, with both entrances serviced by full-time doormen. Developed by Nelson Rockefeller in 1936 and designed by architects Wallace K. Harrison and André Fouilhoux, the Rockefeller Apartments are celebrated for their distinctive curved casement windows, limestone facades, and enduring architectural significance. Building amenities include 24-hour doormen, porter staff, a live-in superintendent, laundry room, storage as available, and the landscaped courtyard garden. Financing up to 75% is permitted. Pied-à-terre ownership, foreign buyers, and pets are allowed. Washer/dryers are not permitted in-unit. Washer Dryers are allowed with board approval.
