The apartment's gracious interiors open onto an approximately 700 square foot south and west-facing terrace with sweeping, open views of the city skyline and partial park views.    A large foyer leads to the main level of the duplex. Perfect for both grand entertaining and gracious living, the generously sized living room with decorative fireplace easily accommodates multiple seating areas and art displays. Filled with light from oversized windows and the open southern exposure, the living room flows into a spacious dining area with room for large gatherings. The windowed kitchen off the dining area offers custom cabinetry, generous storage and an in-unit washer/dryer.   An additional gym or home office space is also located on this floor, along with a Juliette balcony, and additional full bathroom.        A graceful art-deco inspired banister leads to the upper level, and to the spacious bedroom, library/sitting room, and spectacular terrace. Currently configured as a one-bedroom with an open sitting room/library adjacent to the large primary bedroom, the spacious upstairs floor plan offers versatility and the flexibility to use the space to fit one's own needs.   The bedroom and sitting room open directly onto the spectacular approx. 700 sq-ft. terrace. Framing panoramic open city views to the south and partial views of Central Park to the west, this urban oasis is perfect for al-fresco dining, cocktail receptions, relaxing and lush plantings.    The large primary bedroom suite features abundant closet space, and a spa-like bath with soaking tub and rain shower. The library/sitting room, with pocket doors opened or closed to the primary bedroom for privacy, also enjoys floor-to-ceiling windows and direct access to the terrace. Walk-in closets and a wall of closets on the upper landing provide abundant storage.     Rarely does a home combine such architectural distinction, private outdoor space, and a premier Fifth Avenue address, directly across from Central Park.   Completed in 1948, 880 Fifth Avenue is an exceptional full-service cooperative designed by famed architect Emery Roth and ideally located across from Central Park. Residents benefit from a gorgeous lobby and an array of amenities including full-time doormen and concierge, live-in resident manager, fully equipped gym with yoga and Pilates room, storage for each apartment, and direct access to a valet parking garage with reduced rates for shareholders (subject to availability). The building permits 50% financing and allows pied-e-terres, trust ownership, and pets on a case-by-case basis. 3% flip tax paid by purchaser.   880 Fifth Avenue offers a rare opportunity to live with timeless elegance in one of Manhattan's most distinguished addresses.
