520 5th Avenue 48B (1BR 1.5BA) - Amazing Manhattan Condo

Soaring high above Fifth Avenue, this northeast-corner one-bedroom residence offers 808 square feet of refined living with iconic Manhattan views. Framed by four dramatic arched windows (each approximately 10' x 10'), the home overlooks Fifth Avenue with sweeping sightlines to the Chrysler Building and One Vanderbilt, filling the space with natural light throughout the day.

The gracious layout features a welcoming entry foyer, an open chef’s kitchen ideal for both everyday living and entertaining, and a serene primary bedroom with a luxurious en-suite four-fixture bathroom. A separate powder room and an in-unit washer/dryer add everyday convenience rarely found at this level of design.

Rising nearly 1,000 feet, 520 Fifth Avenue is the tallest residential tower on Fifth Avenue and a bold new expression of classic Manhattan elegance. Residences begin more than 400 feet above street level, offering breathtaking river-to-river vistas stretching to Central Park, Bryant Park, the Empire State Building, and beyond.

Designed by the renowned architectural firm Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates, the building’s timeless limestone and terracotta façade is inspired by surrounding landmarks such as the New York Public Library, Grand Central Terminal, and Bryant Park. The dramatic arched windows—soaring up to 60 feet at the base—are a defining feature of both the exterior and the residences.

Interiors are curated by AD100 designer Vicky Charles of Charles & Co, known for her work with Soho House and Hollywood’s elite. Finishes include wide-plank white oak floors, sculptural millwork, and fully vented kitchens with reeded walnut islands, honed Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, Miele appliances, and an Italian five-burner Ilve range. Spa-like bathrooms feature radiant heated floors, Calacatta Lincoln marble, custom walnut cabinetry, and thoughtfully designed storage.
