Description

Welcome to Residence 9Α — a grand nine-into-ten‐room prewar home that features 4-bedrooms, 4-bathrooms, plus a staff room. Perched above one of Manhattan’s most coveted stretches of Fifth Avenue, this home offers sweeping views of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Central Park, and the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir.
An impressive 28-foot gallery sets a dramatic tone upon arrival, leading directly into an oversized Living Room anchored by a beautifully adorned marble wood-burning fireplace and framed by magnificent park vistas visible through oversized windows. Adjacent is a grand dining/library combination, which can be alternatively used as a formal dining room for entertaining. If desired, these two gracious spaces can also be seamlessly combined to create a truly extraordinary great room with five side-by-side oversized windows that overlook the elegant limestone facades of East 83rd Street and offer side views of Central Park.
The gallery leads to a generously scaled wet bar, ?a breakfast room, and a large, windowed chef's kitchen, which includes a home-office / seating area. A separate service wing includes a staff room, bathroom, and a pantry/laundry room, providing exceptional convenience, flexibility and functionality.
The private quarters are separated from the entertaining spaces by a separate hallway off the gallery. The four main bedrooms, including the corner primary suite, enjoy western exposures with views of the Met Museum and Central Park. Throughout the residence are classic prewar details, including nearly 10-foot ceilings, generous closet space, oversized windows, herringbone hardwood floors, and through-the-wall AC.
1016 Fifth Avenue is a distinguished 1926 cooperative, masterfully designed to evoke an Italian Renaissance palazzo. Residents enjoy a beautifully restored gray-marble lobby, an exceptional live-in Resident Manager, 24-hour doormen, daytime handymen, and a newly renovated state-of-the-art fitness center. Private storage conveys with the residence. There is a 3% flip tax. 50% financing permitted. Pets allowed.
