Description

This seven room apartment is located in a premier prewar cooperative directly across the street from the Metropolitan Museum and Central Park. Light filled and grand, the home has 3 exposures including an OPEN VIEW South to midtown with a gracious flow, generous proportions and a good separation between the entertaining and private spaces. There are wonderful pre-war details including a wood-burning fireplace, moldings, large windows and newly redone herringbone hardwood floors. The living and dining room are very over-sized and the dining room has a beautiful open view South to midtown! In the bedroom wing there are 2 large bedrooms, including a corner primary with a view East and 2 windowed bathrooms. There are also 2 staff rooms which could be made into a 3rd bedroom and a staff bath. The large, eat-in kitchen includes a washer/dryer and has a lovely tree lined courtyard and an open South exposure.

The kitchen, staff room and dining room are configured in such a way that in creating a true third bedroom, you could also still have a dining room, kitchen and a small staff room. The layout is fabulous with lots of options. In addition there are ample closets throughout the apartment, redone beautiful prewar details and skim coated walls.

1016 Fifth Avenue is a stunning limestone and beige brick building with a gorgeous grey marble lobby that is one of the most unique on Fifth Avenue. The building offers white glove services including full-time doormen, a live-in resident manager, private storage bins for each apartment and a gym. Pets and pied-a-terres are welcome.

There is an assessment of for $14,958.30 payable in Q4 of 2023 for capital improvements.

The 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.
