Description
This "Cottage in the Sky" is a unique opportunity to restore and enhance a beautiful 2 bedroom 2 1/2 bathroom duplex co-op. Ideally situated on the northeast corner of 86th Street and New York's fabled Fifth Avenue. The house-like feel of this apartment is enhanced by the ability to enter on either floor. Large windows and an exceptionally big eat-in kitchen with dining area and in-unit washer and dryer make it a very attractive opportunity for the savvy buyer looking for a special home. The generous primary bedroom suite includes two very large walk-in closets and an ensuite bath. There is ample storage with 5 oversized closets and the second bedroom also has an ensuite bath.
Directly across the street is the former Vanderbilt townhouse where New York society was once entertained on a regular basis and which today is the Neue Galerie - home to Gustav Klimt's famed Woman in Gold. Every shareholder is guaranteed a DISCOUNTED parking space in the on-site garage. There is NO Flip tax and 50% financing is permitted.
1050 Fifth Avenue is a white glove co-op with attended lobby, elevator operator, and live-in superintendent. The building is pet friendly. Additionally, there is bike storage, private storage bins (as available), a new roof deck, as well as an in-house gym to round out this extraordinary building. Easily accessible from all parts of the city - express buses, subways, and the new Q Train are all close. Museums, churches, restaurants, and some of the world's best shopping are right outside your door. Fabled Fifth Avenue living awaits you!

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
