Located in one of lower Fifth Avenue's most prestigious and sought after cooperatives, this 4 bedroom duplex penthouse is perched high above Fifth Avenue's "Gold Coast". Meticulously renovated in 2011 by architect Joe Serrins, the resulting contemporary design is both distinctive and highly functional.

Adjacent to the living room is a dining area, breakfast counter and a modern sun filled kitchen. A large sliding glass window and door allow for an open, indoor/outdoor experience with a South facing terrace perfect for a morning espresso.

The master bedroom suite boasts two spacious walk-in closets and a spa-like bathroom with shower stall, soaking tub and double vanity sink. An open staircase with leather wrapped bronze handrail leads to the upper level with two winged bedrooms, both of which have en-suite bathrooms.

Additionally, a full laundry room and separate utility closet combine to create a true sense of home.
