Carnegie Hill · On Central Park
1158 Fifth
Avenue
Residence 4A. A classic eight at the tree line, with Central Park in four rooms.
Introduction
The grandeur of a true park-front prewar home, softened by an interior that feels calm, tailored and entirely livable.
Central Park views from four rooms, a wood-burning fireplace, and generous prewar proportions distinguish Residence 4A at 1158 Fifth Avenue. Set at the tree line, this approximately 2,500-square-foot classic eight combines gracious entertaining spaces, three park-facing bedrooms, and thoughtfully incorporated modern comforts.
A semi-private elevator landing opens to a nearly 20-foot gallery. The park-facing living room stretches nearly 25 feet, with the wood-burning fireplace as its natural focal point. A separate formal dining room, beamed ceilings, and richly toned wood floors create a classic Fifth Avenue setting equally suited to entertaining and everyday living.
