The Absolute Best One Bedroom on Fifth Avenue

For those who require the best in everything, Residence 7A at 955 Fifth Avenue is a must-see. With sweeping Central Park views and an impeccable modern renovation, this luxurious one bedroom home invites you to enjoy the good life. Imagine peaceful moments watching the foliage change colors, hosting cozy evenings by the fireplace or throwing the chicest holiday parties this season.

A unique layout at 955 Fifth, 7A is not the typical pre-war warren of rooms but over 2,300 square feet of graceful spaces that flow. Architecture and design studio Stonefox renovated the apartment with the most beautiful materials and latest technology while building on the modern minimalism originally created by the design world darling of the ‘70s-'80s, Ward Bennett.

The grand double living room with almost 30 feet of Central Park frontage, has two extra-large picture windows which fill the space with sunlight. A wood burning fireplace, dual seating areas, and discrete recessed art lighting, create the perfect room for relaxing and entertaining. The dining room with a distinctive Candela curved wall and window allows for elegant or informal dinners. The luminous new kitchen with Celador countertops, Imperial Vermont Danby marble backsplash, and top appliances is a dream to cook in. The breakfast room / study with eastern views of the Carlyle Hotel could easily be converted back to a bedroom if so desired. The sumptuous bedroom suite features cerused oak millwork in the dressing rooms and a luxurious en-suite bathroom clad in honed Olympia White Vermont Danby marble. Additional elements include a marble guest half bath, washer/dryer, Lutron lighting, motorized shades, and all new electrical and AV wiring.

Built in 1938, 955 Fifth Avenue is an elegant and intimate Rosario Candela designed, pre-war co-op with full service and amenities: 24-hour doormen, resident building manager, landscaped roof terrace with stunning views of Central Park and the cityscape, well-outfitted gym, and bike storage. A private storage room transfers with the apartment. Pets, and up to 50% financing are permitted. 3% flip tax paid by the purchaser.

955 Fifth Avenue is located between 76th and 77th streets in the most glamorous part of the Upper East Side near wonderful restaurants, Madison Avenue shopping, the Frick Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and of course Central Park.
