Property Description for 980 Fifth Ave, 9-A

Designed by AD100 designer David Kleinberg, this sun-drenched home is located in a premier Fifth Avenue co-operative and boasts direct spectacular views from every room of Central Park and the iconic Manhattan skyline. The current owner completed a gut renovation in 2023, including all-new HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. There is radiant heat in the kitchen and all bathrooms, brand new Panorama windows in every room, and a top-tier AV/IT system including Lutron-controlled motorized shades and lighting schemes, plus in-ceiling Sonos speakers. The apartment is wired with 2Gig Fiberoptic WIFI, and six rooms have integrated TV/streaming setups. There are three bedroom suites and three full bathrooms.

The luxurious gallery features a high-gloss lacquer cove ceiling, Venetian plaster walls, custom chevron white oak wood flooring, and custom millwork closets with a nickel-framed mirror to reflect the direct park views. In the corner is the enormous 26'7" long living and dining room, which features a stunning high-gloss lacquer ceiling and a mirrored wall to reflect the picturesque park views. Adjacent is the library which features custom wire-brushed, cerused white oak millwork. Also off the gallery is the expansive windowed eat-in kitchen which features radiant heat flooring and a fully customized Bulthaup white lacquer kitchen system, with Porcelanosa countertops and backsplashes. There are top-of-the-line appliances from Gaggenau, Miele, and Subzero. Directly off the kitchen is a butler's pantry with custom white lacquer Bulthaup kitchen cabinets, Porcelanosa countertops and backsplashes, panelized Perlick refrigerator drawers and wine cooler, and mirrored walls to reflect beautiful park views. Off the service entrance is a pantry with extensive, customized millwork for additional storage and a laundry room with a Maytag washer/dryer, sink, and custom millwork.

Immediately off the gallery is a third bedroom that could easily function as a study or library as it is complete with a custom millwork and leather-wrapped bookshelf or closet system. The full bathroom off the entry hall can also be accessed directly from the third bedroom and features floor-to-ceiling Siberian White slab walls and a shower with a custom glass door. Beautiful, polished nickel Waterworks plumbing fixtures are featured here within the stone shower and at the custom vanity backlit by a round mirror and flanked with a mirrored medicine cabinet. The water closet walls are a beautiful, custom plaster and the shower can be concealed enabling it also to function as an elegant powder room. Multiple closets with custom white oak interiors and chevron white oak flooring can be found in the hallway leading to the primary and secondary bedrooms. The second bedroom off the hallway features a Porcelanosa-tiled en-suite bathroom, with custom lacquer millwork and medicine cabinets, a custom glass shower encloser, and a bathtub/shower with Waterworks fixtures. There are three custom white-oak closets.

Finally, you enter the primary suite with a large dressing room, a separate shoe closet, a private office, and a hidden linen closet, all made of custom, white oak millwork. The bright, large bedroom features custom chevron wood flooring, a generous window seat with city and Central Park views, and built-in custom shelving. The primary bathroom features floor-to-ceiling Goddess White slabs, custom mirrors, a custom lacquered millwork makeup area, nickel trimmed vanity, custom mirrored medicine cabinets and a custom millwork storage closet. The large shower has two showerheads, Waterworks fixtures, niches with LED lighting, and a custom, polished nickel and glass shower enclosure. A separate water closet features a Toto toilet.

Upper East Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.

With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.

Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .

There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
