Agent's Note
From Curtis Bain. Details about the apartment are drawn from the listing information provided through RLS by Douglas Elliman Real Estate.
Built in 1928 and designated an individual landmark, 781 Fifth Avenue is the setting for Apartment 1101, a four-room home on the eleventh floor. The living and dining room runs 33 feet and overlooks Central Park and Wollman Rink, and the windows take in city, park and skyline views.
The library is the room I'd look at closely. It has custom woodwork and shares the same views, and the powder room beside it has a hidden shower, so it can work as an en-suite guest bedroom as well as an extra bedroom.
The kitchen is fully equipped, has a window, and comes with top-of-the-line appliances and a dishwasher. A wet bar sits among the entertaining rooms. The apartment also has its own washer and dryer and a laundry room with a sink, so you won't depend on the building's laundry for every load.
The primary bedroom has two large closets and a marble bath with five fixtures. The renovation covered new windows, central air, custom millwork, and audio/visual and lighting systems. Central Park is about 1 minute on foot, and the 5 Av/59 St station, served by the N, R and W, is about 1 minute away too. Dainobu is about 6 minutes on foot.
