1056 Fifth Ave, 15-DE

Situated in one of Manhattan's most distinguished and sought-after neighborhoods-directly across from Central Park and moments from the Metropolitan Museum of Art-this exceptional 9-into-8 room residence at 1056 Fifth Avenue offers an extraordinary combination of scale, sophistication, and modern living.

Encompassing approximately 2,800 square feet with sunny open exposures and picturesque side views of Central Park and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, the space has been masterfully combined from 2 apartments into a gracious and elegant residence. The home impresses with its abundant natural light, grand proportions, and designer renovations.

The expansive layout includes four spacious bedrooms, four renovated full bathrooms, a large entry gallery, a gracious living room with decorative fireplace, a formal dining room, an eat-in kitchen, and a media room/den that can also serve as a fifth bedroom. Throughout the home, handsome Brazilian cherry wood herringbone floors, custom built-ins, ornate decorative mouldings, venetian plaster and recessed lighting convey contemporary elegance.

A windowed eat-in chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, sleek quartzite countertops and ceramic backsplash, double-basin stainless steel sink, large pantry closet, and dimmable undercabinet and cove lighting. Premium, professional-grade stainless steel appliances include a Wolf 5-burner gas range with a charbroiler grill and oversized ventilating hood, Subzero refrigerator and wine fridge, as well as built-in Wolf ovens, Bosch dishwasher and Whirlpool microwave. An adjacent dining/breakfast area accommodates both everyday meals and larger gatherings. Located just off the kitchen is a full-size stacked LG washer and dryer, and there is also a separate service entrance.

The private bedroom wing comprises four ensuite bedrooms. The corner primary suite serves as a tranquil retreat, offering dual exposures, wall-to-wall closets with custom built-ins, a walk-in closet, and a windowed ensuite marble bathroom with a double sink vanity and an oversized glass enclosed walk-in shower. The additional bedrooms are spacious and refined, with designer finishes and custom built-ins. A large den, currently configured as a media room, can also serve as a fifth bedroom.

Renovated bathrooms, exceptional closet space, custom window treatments, and through-wall air conditioning ensure comfort throughout the home. Additionally, the hallways on the 15th floor are shared by only two other residences, and have just been renovated with an elevated designer look.
