Property Description for 880 Fifth Ave, 18-G

Welcome to Residence #18G, a masterfully gut-renovated collaboration between Robert A.M. Stern Architects, Stern Projects, and Daniel Fierro Interiors. Nestled within one of Manhattan's most prestigious addresses, this one-of-a-kind terraced Fifth Avenue haven, perched high above Central Park, seamlessly weaves indoor and outdoor living. Every inch of this approximately 1,400-square-foot combined indoor/outdoor residence has been thoughtfully curated to create an unparalleled residential offering.

Enter the residence through an airy and expansive corner living room with a neatly placed coat closet boasting nine shoe boxes, a pebbled leather-lined drawer for scarves and hats, a lighted clothing pole, and elegant nickel hardware by E.R. Butler. The dining alcove is situated beside custom, high-gloss, rounded Macassar walls and sits perfectly between the kitchen and formal living room. Tucked behind the Macassar walls are Christopher Peacock storage cabinets with African Walnut interiors, which house a china cabinet, an AV command center with a Sonos system, and a dual-temperature-zone Wolf Sub-Zero wine cooler.

Both beauty and functionality are fulfilled in this custom Christopher Peacock kitchen. Two Charles Edwards ceiling fixtures further illuminate this bright, windowed kitchen, where a full-slab marble backsplash meets hand-painted, high-gloss cabinets with American Walnut interiors. The room is outfitted with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, six-burner Wolf stovetop, Wolf electric double ovens, a range hood, a microwave, a Miele dishwasher, a Miele washer-dryer, an instant hot-water dispenser, and a water-filtration system.

The formal living room boasts handcrafted Venetian plaster walls that accentuate the natural light flooding into the room from both the terrace and living room exposures. Decorated with a custom Chesney's solid-slab fireplace mantel and Hearth Cabinet firebox, the room further achieves both warmth and beauty. Custom built-in bookshelves, Modulightor art lights, and Bowers & Wilkins speakers put the finishing touches on the formal living oasis, which seamlessly engages the terrace for indoor and outdoor living.

Situated directly off the formal living room, the nearly 500-square-foot private eagle's-nest terrace offers sweeping Central Park and open city views to the east, south, and west. Charles Edwards lighting fixtures further enhance the usability of this versatile outdoor oasis, which is truly an extension of the living room. Diagonally set pavers create the setting for McKinnon and Harris furniture (not included), accommodating dining and lounging for 16, as well as Penoyer-Newman planters maintained by Town & Country Landscaping. An irrigation system nurtures the greenery, and a custom retractable awning provides shade and shelter as desired. With a renewed terrace membrane, pavers, copper flashing, and meticulous brickwork, every detail has been attended to, honoring the beauty of this harmonious outdoor oasis.

The guest bath is decorated with a celestial palladium-leaf ceiling that illuminates the room's padded walls, along with a monolithic slab basin featuring a THG hammered-nickel sink and Samuel Heath crystal-handled taps. Best & Lloyd sconces cast a soothing glow over the private enclosure, which features a heated, full-slab marble floor, a TOTO wall-hung WC, and a solid mahogany lid.

The primary bedroom features de Gournay silk wallpaper illuminated by Jerome Sutter bedside lighting, creating a tranquil sanctuary tucked away from the rest of the residence. Electronic darkening and solar shades provide seamless privacy and ideal sleeping conditions. The Christopher Peacock clothing closets, fitted in African Walnut, feature drawers lined with pebbled leather and clad with nickel trim, a fireproof safe, lighted double-hung clothing bars, and twin dressers, offering a tactile and refined living experience.

Full-slab marble walls, a shower, and a vanity top are situated above a tastefully crafted, heated glass-and-marble mosaic floor in the primary bathroom. The mirrored vanity boasts custom nickel Samuel Heath hardware, two TOTO porcelain sinks, Samuel Heath fixtures, and dual Robern anti-fog medicine cabinets with a lighted shaving/makeup mirror. A blissful THG rain shower cascades from the ceiling, illuminated by Charles Edwards lighting, completing the ensemble alongside a TOTO WC.

In addition to the basement storage, the property boasts further storage situated off the hallway. Honoring the harmony of order and the art of concealment, an expansive Christopher Peacock closet clad in African Walnut offers an ironing board, suitcase storage, a full storage drawer, a lighted clothing pole, and 17 shoe boxes, all neatly situated off the hallway. The apartment transfers with the use of a storage bin in the basement, thoughtfully outfitted with a custom cabinet system and providing ample space for cherished belongings.

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.
