Description

Residence 5B is a spacious, charming pre-war condominium with two bedrooms, two windowed baths and a windowed kitchen. A wood-burning fireplace, beautiful hardwood floors, great built-ins and through-the-wall AC, the apartment also features a formal dining room/den, making this a perfect home for gracious living and entertaining. This Rosario Candela building was respectfully modernized in 2006 and offers new mechanicals but retains its old-world feel. Situated in a vibrant Midtown location, with access to the finest retail stores, restaurants, Central Park, museums, Broadway theaters and Carnegie Hall, each just moments away, the building also provides privacy with only four residences per floor. Building amenities include doorman, central laundry room and ample private storage space, with the interiors and lobby featuring the designs of Sean Johnson Decor inspired by the nearby Museum of Modern Art. Pets are welcome.
