Description
MOVE RIGHT IN. Located directly across the street from the Metropolitan Museum, this beautiful 7 room residence has been lovingly restored to seamlessly blend timeless charm with modern sophistication. Newly renovated and move-in ready, this stunning home features rooms of grand proportion, abundant prewar details, and excellent light throughout, as well as brand new Pella windows, refinished hardwood floors, and through-wall AC.
A gracious entry foyer leads to all major areas of the home. The oversized living room, bathed in northern light and overlooking serene 83rd Street, features a wood-burning fireplace and ample space for multiple seating arrangements. The stately, square dining room is equally suited for both grand entertaining and intimate gatherings.
Adjacent to the dining room, the windowed galley kitchen features top-of the-line appliances, great pantry space and separate utility sink. Off the kitchen is a den/bedroom, separate staff room, full bathroom and brand-new washer and dryer.
The sprawling primary bedroom suite extends an impressive 25 feet, featuring built-in storage and a dedicated desk area. The newly renovated windowed bath offers spa-like indulgence with mosaic tile floors, a soaking tub, and a stall shower. Two large closets provide ample storage. The second bedroom also enjoys its own newly updated en-suite bath and there is powder room in the hall as well.
Designed by John B. Peterkin and built in 1926, 1016 Fifth Avenue is an elegant and stately pre-war cooperative with one of the most beautiful and distinctive lobbies in the city. This white glove building offers a full-time doorman, live in resident manager and new, state of the art fitness center. Pets and pieds-à-terres are welcome, and 50% financing is permitted.

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.
