Vyumba vinne kwenye Central Park na kivutio cha moto cha kuni kinatofautisha Residence 4A, nyumba ya vyumba nane yenye ukubwa wa takriban futi mraba 2,500 katika moja ya anwani maarufu za Fifth Avenue za Carnegie Hill.

Imeingia kutoka kwenye eneo la lifti lililo na watu wachache, makazi yanafunguka kwenye galleria ya karibu futi 20 inayoweka kipimo chake cha kipekee. Sebule inayoangalia park ina ukubwa wa takriban futi 14 kwa 25 na ina kivutio cha moto wa kuni, wakati chumba cha kulia cha rasmi kinatoa mazingira mazuri kwa ajili ya kukaribisha wageni. Mpangilio wa sasa unaoweza kubadilishwa unatoa vyumba vitatu, viazi vitatu vya dirisha, ofisi ndogo au chumba cha nne kilichowezekana, ofisi ya nyongeza au chumba cha wafanyakazi, jikoni kubwa iliyo na madirisha inayoweza kupokeya na chumba cha kufulia cha pekee.

Ukarabati wa kina uliofanywa na mwenye nyumba wa awali ulianzisha mpangilio wa sasa na kuanzisha miundombinu muhimu na viamalumbembe vinavyobaki katika hali nzuri sana. Maalum ni pamoja na sakafu za mbao za cherry za Brazil, madirisha ya kigae tatu yanayotengeneza kimya cha kushangaza, mfumo wa kuzunguka wa Mitsubishi VRF wa kupashia hewa na map closet makubwa yaliyofanywa kwa maple thabiti.

Jikoni kubwa yenye madirisha ina fanicha za SieMatic, kaunta za limestone na sakafu, kisiwa cha katikati, barafu ya Sub-Zero kwa ajili ya chakula na divai na vifaa vyote vya Miele, pamoja na vichwa viwili vya kuosha sahani, ovens za ukuta na mfumo wa kahawa wa ndani. Chumba cha kufulia cha pekee kina mashine ya kufulia na kikundi cha kutolea maji pamoja na sinki ya uchafu. Viazi vitatu vimemalizwa kwa limestone na vifaa vya Duravit na Hastings.

Inapofanywa vizuri na kutumika mara moja, 4A inafaa sawa kwa urekebishaji wa mabadiliko madogo au mabadiliko makubwa zaidi. Mpango mbadala unaonesha uwezekano mmoja wa kuvutia: sebuleni inayokabiliwa na bustani, suite ya msingi iliyopanuliwa, vyumba vitatu pamoja na maktaba au ofisi, viazi vitatu na nusu na scullery au pantry ya pekee. Mpango mbadala ni wa dhana na unakasirishwa na idhini zote zinazohitajika kutoka bodi, usanifu na serikali.

Vyumba vinavyoteuliwa vinaonyeshwa kwa njia ya mtandaoni na jinsi vinavyoonekana leo, huku picha za hali ya sasa zikifuatia picha zilizopangwa.

Imeandaliwa mwaka 1924 na C. Howard Crane na Kenneth Franzheim, 1158 Fifth Avenue ni ushirikiano wa kabla ya vita wa huduma kamili unaotambulika na uso wake wa Kifaransa wa Renaissance na aulini ya octagonal yenye urefu mara mbili. Rahisi ni pamoja na doorman wa wakati wote na concierge, meneja wa wakaazi, kituo cha mazoezi, hifadhi ya baiskeli na hifadhi binafsi. Museum Mile, Hifadhi ya Central Park na Madison Avenue ziko karibu. Ufadhili unaruhusiwa hadi asilimia 40%. Kodi ya 2.5% inapaswa kulipwa na mnunuzi.

Four rooms on Central Park and a wood-burning fireplace distinguish Residence 4A, an approximately 2,500-square-foot, eight-room home at one of Carnegie Hill’s signature Fifth Avenue addresses.

Entered from a semi-private elevator landing, the residence opens to a nearly 20-foot gallery that establishes its exceptional scale. The park-facing living room measures approximately 14 by 25 feet and is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, while the formal dining room offers an equally gracious setting for entertaining. The flexible current layout provides three bedrooms, three windowed baths, a den or potential fourth bedroom, a separate office or staff room, an expansive windowed eat-in kitchen and a dedicated laundry room.

A comprehensive renovation completed by a prior owner established the current layout and introduced substantial infrastructure and finishes that remain in excellent condition. Highlights include Brazilian cherry wood floors, triple-pane windows that create remarkable quiet, a multi-zone Mitsubishi VRF air-conditioning system and extensive custom closets fitted in solid maple.

The large windowed kitchen features SieMatic cabinetry, limestone counters and floors, a center island, Sub-Zero food and wine refrigeration and a full complement of Miele appliances, including two dishwashers, wall ovens and a built-in coffee system. A separate laundry room contains a washer and vented dryer along with a slop sink. The three baths are finished in limestone with Duravit and Hastings fixtures.

Beautifully maintained and immediately livable, 4A is equally well suited to a light cosmetic refresh or a more ambitious transformation. An illustrative alternate plan presents one compelling possibility: a dramatic park-facing living and dining room, an expanded primary suite, three bedrooms plus a library or office, three-and-a-half baths and a separate scullery or pantry. The alternate plan is conceptual and subject to all required board, architectural and governmental approvals.

Select rooms are shown both virtually staged and as they appear today, with current-condition photographs following the corresponding staged images.

Designed in 1924 by C. Howard Crane and Kenneth Franzheim, 1158 Fifth Avenue is a full-service prewar cooperative distinguished by its French Renaissance façade and dramatic double-height octagonal lobby. Amenities include a full-time doorman and concierge, resident manager, fitness center, bicycle storage and private storage. Museum Mile, the Central Park Reservoir and Madison Avenue are moments away. Financing is permitted up to 40%. A 2.5% flip tax is payable by the purchaser.
