1010 5TH Avenue #8B

Overlooking Fifth Avenue and the majestic Metropolitan Museum of Art is this impeccably renovated apartment. As you enter the impressive 27Ft. entry gallery with spherical glass fixtures and stripe limestone floor, there is an element of surprise and playfulness. The stately 30 Ft living room features oak herringbone floors and a 6 ft. hand crafted stone mantle piece, surrounding the WBFP flanked by built-in bookcases. You are drawn to the oversized West facing windows to view the magnificent facade and fountains of the world renowned museum before you. The bedroom wing leads to the glamorous MBR suite with marble bath, and there are ample, well designed, custom fitted closets with antiqued mirrored door. The second bedroom with marble bath en suite has beige linen walls with nail head details, like the primary bedroom this enjoys a stunning view of The Met. The generous sun-filled third bedroom is organized and designed for two, with two closets and marble bath en suite. A paneled library painted in a dark lacquer makes a rich study just off the gallery. The formal dining room is now the main gathering room designed for casual entertaining with a Sonos Entertainment system. The serving pantry leads you to a large eat-in kitchen featuring Clive Christian cabinetry, and appliances by Viking & Sub Zero. There is a big walk-in pantry, a home office/homework station, and large dining area with a built in banquette. In addition there is a maids room that is now large laundry room. The renovation was done with the integrity of the past while moving forward to the comforts of today. 1010 Fifth Avenue is a white glove, full service co-op. There is a new gym off the lobby of the building and storage space that transfers with the apartment.
