Description

Highly coveted and rarely available, this southwest corner home floats above the treetops on the 17th floor of 1050 Fifth, with incomparable Central Park and skyline views plus a private terrace suspended over the city. With a one-of-a-kind floorplan and a recent high-end, gut renovation, this meticulously crafted, Triple Mint gem has it all and must be seen to be believed!

With over 50 linear feet of west-facing frontage on Central Park, together with southern exposure over the Metropolitan Museum to the midtown skyline, every single window of this modern treasure celebrates New York with a stellar view. Whether relaxing at home or entertaining in the loft-like space, this home provides a rarely seen sweep of views across Central Park to the marvelous vistas and evening lights of some of the most iconic NYC landmarks.

One enters this oversized urban retreat through a proper foyer with coat closet.

Custom sliding doors reveal a spectacular great room, designed with several living areas surrounded by picture windows to take in the views. A grand living room, open dining room, sitting area and eat-in kitchen, join to provide an expansive arc of stellar vistas and light. Just beyond, a glass door opens to the ultra-rare private terrace, offering spectacular 180-degree views of Central Park, from the Plaza to the George Washington Bridge - ideal for morning coffee or a glass of wine to savor the sunset.

The nighttime views from this home are postcard perfect!

Adjoining the dining room, a custom walnut and marble dry bar features Sub-Zero wine fridge, four refrigerated drawers, and abundant storage - perfect for amazing dinner parties or the ease of everyday living.

Open and contemporary, with an eminently flexible floorplan, the home is currently configured with two large split bedrooms, each with en suite bath, and a hall powder room. The oversized second bedroom boasts glorious views, dual pocket door entries, separated by a row of handsome floating bookshelves, two closets, and a designer marble bathroom with bathtub/shower and Toto washlet.

The private primary bedroom suite features north to south Reservoir and Park views, two large custom walk-in closets, and a clever Travertine and slate bathroom with floating walnut double sink vanity, and separate Toto washlet and dual head shower.

Central audiovisual system with four wall-mounted flat-screen televisions. If desired, this home may be available inclusive of furnishings, to truly start enjoying on day one.

A luxury ultra-full-service cooperative, 1050 Fifth Avenue was built in 1959 at the height of mid-century modernism and is situated on the northeast corner of Fifth Avenue and 86th Street in the heart of the Upper East Side and Museum Mile.
