Discover an exceptional sense of space in this oversized one-bedroom, one-bathroom residence at The Aristocrat, a full-service cooperative on one of Midtown Manhattan's most desirable blocks, moments from Fifth Avenue, Central Park, and the Museum of Modern Art. Residence 5A combines classic Manhattan charm with thoughtful recent improvements. Freshly painted throughout, with beautifully refinished and stained hardwood parquet floors, the home is move-in ready while offering the opportunity to make it your own.
An inviting entry foyer leads to an impressive living room with ample space for comfortable seating and entertaining. A separate, windowed dining area, conveniently situated beside the kitchen, offers wonderful flexibility for everyday dining, a home office, or additional living space. The windowed kitchen has been refreshed with new appliances and countertops, while upgraded 100-amp electrical service adds modern functionality. The bedroom easily accommodates a king-size bed and additional furnishings, offering a peaceful retreat from the energy of the city. Ample closet space, classic beamed ceilings, and an en suite bathroom complete this inviting home. An especially valuable feature: in-unit washer/dryer installation is permitted, subject to building approval.
Built in 1949, The Aristocrat is an intimate, well-maintained, 13-story cooperative offering full-time doorman service, a beautifully renovated lobby, central laundry, bicycle storage, additional storage (subject to availability), and a fantastic superintendent. The fifth-floor hallway was also renovated in late 2025. The building is pet-friendly and welcomes pieds-à-terre, co-purchasing, and international buyers. Subletting is permitted with Board approval. Situated on a distinguished Midtown block surrounded by landmark architecture, acclaimed restaurants, world-class shopping, and cultural institutions, the location is nothing short of exceptional. Central Park, MoMA, Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, Broadway theaters, and Fifth Avenue are all within easy reach, with numerous subway lines providing convenient access throughout the city.
