Property Description for 1056 Fifth Ave, 4-C

FIFTH AVENUE. STUNNING DIRECT PARK VIEW

When you enter into the spacious foyer of this perfect 2-3 bedroom at 1056 Fifth Avenue you will enjoy the beautiful direct views of Central Park. That is nearly 35 feet of direct Park view between the living room and adjoining rooms. Originally a classic six, this renovated ready to move in apartment is located on Museum Mile just above the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

From the foyer enter the sunny expansive living room and enjoy the Central Park view through the oversized sound proofed windows. The living room has a wall of built in cabinets and book shelves. Directly to the south of the living room is an oversized bedroom, which has enclosed the adjacent solarium to make an even larger bedroom or, as used now, a convenient office area. The bedroom is completed by a sizable dressing room/closet and an en-suite bath.

There is a separate sunny large second bedroom/den off the foyer that has an adjoining bath. A windowed study, with its own bath, can be as easily used as a third bedroom.

Opposite the living room is a dining room that is serviced by an open kitchen, with top line appliances, including a built in wine refrigerator. The apartment has numerous closets and storage areas, a built in sound system and washer/dryer. The apartment comes with a storage cage in the basement.

1056 Fifth Avenue is an elegant full service building designed by George F. Pelham and built in 1951. Garage and laundry room. There are full time doormen and a resident manager. Sorry no pets. Pied-a- terre on a case by case basis.

Carnegie Hill | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Carnegie Hill is a small neighborhood at the northern tip of the Upper East Side that borders Central Park. It is steeped in history, great wealth, architecture and culture. It is known for its world-class museums and its rows of historic mansions. Nothing much changes here as the entire area is landmarked, preventing the proliferation of high-rise developments. Thus the buildings stay a human scale, the sky is aplenty and the neighborhood kind of feels like a small town to its long time residents.

The name Carnegie Hill is derived from the industrial magnate Andrew Carnegie, when Carnegie decided to build himself a mansion at 91st Street and Fifth Avenue….

Carnegie Hill is a family neighborhood with old fashioned upper crust money. The mid-rise co-ops that line the avenues are among the most prestigious addresses in the city. The avenues are lined with small restaurants, boutique shops

The residential towers that have proliferated on the eastside of Third Avenue in the East 90s simply do not exist between Lexington and Fifth.
