Property Description for 1280 Fifth Ave, 16-C

Sweeping vistas, radiant natural light, and refined architectural details define this exceptional corner two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence at One Museum Mile - Robert A.M. Stern's Fifth Avenue crown jewel condominium, overlooking Central Park. From the living room, enjoy the changing seasons with oblique views across Central Park's treetops, dramatic southern exposures framing the Manhattan skyline, and eastern sightlines extending toward the East River.

Thoughtfully planned and impeccably maintained, this refined residence offers a seamless split-bedroom layout that balances modern precision with inviting warmth. A gracious entry foyer leads into a beautifully scaled corner living and dining room wrapped in oversized windows complemented by wide-planked hardwood floors.

The windowed kitchen is both striking and functional, anchored by a dramatic wall of glass that fills the space with natural light. Sleek stone countertops complement floor-to-ceiling Zebrano cabinetry, while a suite of premium appliances - including a Thermador five-burner cooktop and oven, Miele ventilated hood, integrated Thermador refrigerator and freezer, and Bosch dishwasher - make for effortless entertaining.

The generously proportioned primary suite is bathed in southern light and side views toward Central Park. A custom walk-in closet provides excellent storage, and the spa-caliber bath is finished in Jerusalem limestone with a Zuma soaking tub, polished marble surfaces, and refined millwork that feels both timeless and serene.

Privately situated on the opposite wing, the second bedroom offers open southern exposures and its own en-suite bath adorned with abalone shell mosaic detailing, Tundra Grey marble flooring, a frameless glass shower, and elegant stone-topped vanity. An in-unit washer and dryer, central HVAC, and abundant closet space throughout complete this elevated city home, offering comfort and ease high above Fifth Avenue.

Completed in 2010, One Museum Mile is one of Fifth Avenue's most architecturally distinguished contemporary condominiums. Conceived by Robert A.M. Stern with interiors by Andre Kikoski, the building reflects enduring materials and classical proportions reinterpreted for modern living. The amenity program rivals that of a private club, including a heated rooftop swimming pool, landscaped roof terraces with outdoor kitchens and sweeping Park and skyline views, a residents' lounge with fireplace, a state-of-the-art fitness center, children's playroom, teen lounge, poker and game room, a formal 20-seat dining room with Central Park views, catering kitchen, bicycle storage, cold storage, and on-site parking garage. Full-service staffing ensures seamless daily living.
Positioned moments from the Conservancy Gardens, the revitalized Davis Center at Harlem Meer, and the newly opened Gottesman Rink, the location offers immediate access to both recreation and culture. Museum Mile unfolds along Fifth Avenue, while Whole Foods on 125th Street and the established offerings of the Upper East Side are nearby. Transportation is effortless, the 2/3 and the 6 trains are within a 5-10 minute walk, placing Midtown approximately fifteen minutes away.

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.
