Carmelo Anthony's former Manhattan home is available for rent, offering the opportunity to live like an NBA All-Star— that is if you're ready, willing, and able to pony up $43,000 a month . The five-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bathroom residence on Fifth Avenue spans a bit more than 4,000 square feet, perched on a high floor with sweeping views of Central Park. The apartment was Carmelo's home base during his time with the New York Knicks, renting it in 2015 while navigating the peaks and valleys of his illustrious career.
Housed in a pre-war building originally constructed in 1925 and restored in 2012, the apartment blends classic design with modern finishes. Think glossy oak flooring, coffered ceilings, and custom millwork. A private elevator opens directly into a long entrance gallery and foyer, leading to an expansive combination living and dining room centered around a gas fireplace with a polished stone surround.

The chef's kitchen is equipped with Italian custom cabinetry, Caesarstone countertops, and premium Miele and Bertazzoni appliances. Meanwhile, the primary suite features unobstructed views of the park, a private sitting room, two walk-in closets, and a spa-like bathroom with radiant heated floors and Dolomiti marble, notes the listing, which is being held by Ruthie and Ethan Assouline of The Assouline Team at Douglas Elliman.
The 55-unit building offers both pre-war charm and modern amenities. Think a 24-hour concierge, a 2,600-square-foot fitness center, and a residents' lounge. For an additional fee, residents can get access to the private club at 1214 Fifth Avenue, complete with an indoor pool and media room. Notably, it also drew high-profile buyers—Bill and Melinda Gates reportedly purchased a $5 million condo here in 2018 for their daughter Jennifer Gates, paying all cash. The unit was listed for $4.75 million in 2022 but was taken off the market before it was sold.

Over the years, Anthony's real estate portfolio has included several standout properties. His previous residence, a full-floor condo in Chelsea, was listed for $12.85 million in 2020 and reappeared on the market in 2022 after undergoing a total redesign. Located next to the High Line, the 4,556-square-foot unit featured five bedrooms, four bathrooms, Calacatta Gold marble countertops, and custom walnut cabinetry. He's previously owned a big spread in Littleton, Colorado; a 13,000-square-foot mansion in New York's Westchester County; and a 1929 Spanish-style home in the Beverly Grove area of Beverly Hills that he shared with his ex-wife La La Anthony, according to records.
