Beautiful Penthouse apartment bathed in sunlight with three large terraces on two levels, and a spectacular large greenhouse pavilion. Built in 1929 atop one of Greenwich Village's most distinguished buildings on Lower Fifth Avenue's Gold Coast, this gracious 3 bedroom duplex was the home of a well-known New York artist and her family for the last 50 years. High ceilings throughout, a woodburning fireplace, detail dating back to the Jazz Age, and an authenticity that makes this an exceedingly rare offering. The apartment has beautifully scaled rooms, beamed ceilings, and classic panoramic village views from four exposures. A stone staircase leads up to a nearly 1000' greenhouse atelier, a permanent feature built in the 20's, with the potential to be an entertaining space, starlit living room, or studio. 51 Fifth Avenue is an elegant pre-war building featuring a full time doorman, live in super, two automatic elevators, bicycle storage and a gymnasium. Storage, when available, is in the basement. Pets are welcome and a 25% down payment is required. Pied-a-Terre purchases are also allowed.
