Smješten na razini krošnji drveća, neposredno preko puta parka, ovaj prekrasno preuređeni klasični stan sa šest prostorija spaja profinjene proporcije predratne arhitekture s promišljenom, sveobuhvatnom obnovom. Izvorno koncipiran kao stan s tri spavaće sobe, dom je preoblikovan u prostrani stan s dvije spavaće sobe i bibliotekom, uz očuvanu eleganciju, raskošne dimenzije i osjećaj formalnosti primjeren adresi na Petoj aveniji.

Ulazi se preko poluprivatnog podesta, a potom kroz reprezentativni predvorje obloženo bogatim drvenim panelima, s pogledom prema formalnoj blagovaonici i prostorima za primanje gostiju. Dnevni boravak naglašen je mramornim kaminom s kaminom na drva, upotpunjenim pozlaćenim brončanim zidnim svjetiljkama iz 19. stoljeća i zidom prozora s trostrukim ostakljenjem koji gledaju na Central Park. Neposredno uz njega nalazi se biblioteka, intimnije utočište obloženo hrastovim panelima s naglašenom prirodnom teksturom, s ugradbenim policama izrađenima po mjeri i vlastitom kupaonicom, pa jednako dobro može služiti kao dnevni boravak, ured ili druga spavaća soba.

Glavna spavaća soba s pogledom na park mirna je i prostrana, s tapeciranim zidovima, garderobnim ormarom izrađenim po mjeri, vunenim sagom Doris Leslie Blau te vlastitom kupaonicom obloženom mramorom, s podnim grijanjem, kadom za namakanje i odvojenim tušem bez kade. Druga spavaća soba krasi ručno oslikana tapeta de Gournay, vuneni sag, ugradbeni spremišni prostori, veliki ormar i praktičan pristup poluprivatnoj kupaonici za goste.

Kuhinja u obliku galerije opremljena je kuhinjskim elementima izrađenima po mjeri, mramornim radnim pločama te kompletnim setom uređaja marki Gaggenau, Miele i Sub-Zero. U cijelom stanu nalaze se ručno rezani hrastovi podovi u uzorku riblje kosti, stropovi s gredama, ukrasne stropne letvice, reljefne zidne obloge, prilagođena vrata od punog mahagonija, zonirani sustav centralnog klimatiziranja, ovlaživanje zraka, prozori s trostrukim ostakljenjem, rasvjeta izrađena po mjeri te potpuno obnovljene električne i vodovodne instalacije i vertikale. Perilica i sušilica rublja u stanu te privatno spremište zaokružuju ovu nekretninu.

Projektirao ga je arhitekt i investitor Frederick Fillmore French, a dovršen je 1922. godine u suzdržanom renesansnom stilu. 1140 Fifth Avenue i danas je jedna od istaknutih predratnih zadružnih zgrada na Petoj aveniji. Stanarima su na raspolaganju brižljiva usluga s recepcionarima, nosačima i kućnim upraviteljem. Zadruga dopušta financiranje do 60 %, a porez na preprodaju u iznosu od 2 % plaća kupac.

Perched at tree level directly across from the park, this beautifully reimagined classic six blends the gracious proportions of pre-war architecture with a thoughtful, comprehensive renovation. Originally configured as three bedrooms, the home has been transformed into an expansive two-bedroom with library, while retaining the elegance, scale, and sense of formality befitting its Fifth Avenue address.

Arrive via a semi-private landing and enter through a gracious foyer wrapped in rich wood paneling, with sightlines into the formal dining and entertaining spaces beyond. The living room is anchored by a marble mantel surrounding a wood-burning fireplace, complemented by 19th-century gilt bronze sconces and a wall of triple-paned windows overlooking Central Park. Just beyond, the library offers a more intimate retreat with cerused oak paneling, custom built-in bookcases, and an ensuite bath, allowing it to function equally well as a den, office, or second bedroom.

The park-facing primary suite is serene and substantial, with upholstered walls, a custom-fitted closet, Doris Leslie Blau wool carpeting and a marble-clad ensuite bath with heated floors, soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. A second bedroom features hand-painted de Gournay wallpaper, wool carpeting, built-in storage, a large closet and convenient access to a semi-private guest bath.

The galley kitchen is finished with custom-built cabinetry, marble countertops and a full suite of Gaggenau, Miele and Sub-Zero appliances. Throughout the apartment, details include hand-cut herringbone oak floors, beamed ceilings, crown moldings, raised paneling, custom solid mahogany doors, zoned central air, humidification, triple-paned windows, custom lighting and fully updated electrical, plumbing and risers. An in-unit washer/dryer and private storage complete the home.

Designed by architect-developer Frederick Fillmore French and completed in 1922 in a restrained Renaissance style, 1140 Fifth Avenue remains one of Fifth Avenue's distinguished pre-war cooperatives. Residents enjoy attentive white-glove service from doormen, porters and a resident superintendent. The cooperative permits 60% financing and has a 2% flip tax payable by the buyer.
