129 5th Avenue #601

Rarely does a residence so perfectly balance the industrial soul of New York heritage with the serene elegance of a modern retreat. Located in the historic Lord & Taylor building, this exquisite residence at 129/131 Fifth Avenue offers a sprawling open-concept floor plan defined by soaring ceilings, original cast-iron columns, and an extraordinary private outdoor oasis.
Architectural Sophistication
The interior is a masterclass in "quiet luxury." Bathed in consistent southern light, the Great Room flows seamlessly into a gourmet chef's kitchen, featuring minimalist matte cabinetry, premium stainless steel appliances, and a substantial waterfall island.
The Primary Suite: A private enclave of comfort, featuring a massive, bespoke walk-in closet and a spa-inspired dressing area.
The Sunroom: A rare, glass-enclosed "flex" space that functions as a sun-drenched home office or a tranquil guest sanctuary.
The Private Terrace: An Urban Sanctuary
Step outside into a rare, triple-exposure (South, East, and West) setback terrace. Designed for the urban naturalist, this lushly landscaped deck offers a seamless transition from the interior, featuring a fire pit lounge and a dedicated dining area. The pièce de résistance is the private outdoor shower - a rare luxury that transforms this expansive outdoor space into a personal spa.
Unrivaled Location & Financial Insight
Situated at the epicenter of Flatiron, this home offers a lifestyle of unparalleled convenience. You are seconds from the culinary landmarks of Eataly and Madison Square Park, surrounded by the iconic Beaux-Arts architecture of Fifth Avenue.
Investor's Insight: This boutique, 21-unit cooperative is one of the most financially sound in the neighborhood. With no underlying mortgage and a shared ownership stake in the ground-floor retail space, the building maintains remarkably low monthly maintenance, providing long-term value and stability.
Flexibility: The building's welcoming policy toward pied-à-terre, guarantors, and pets makes it a versatile asset for the international or local buyer alike.
