Property Description
A Distinguished Fifth Avenue Duplex with Central Park Views.
A rare offering at 1040 Fifth Avenue, this beautifully renovated four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath duplex brings together the gracious proportions and architectural character of a classic prewar residence with the comfort and sophistication of contemporary living.
One of only 27 residences in this intimate, white-glove Rosario Candela-designed cooperative, the apartment is entered through a semi-private elevator landing that opens to an elegant entrance gallery. From there, generously proportioned rooms unfold across two floors, distinguished by high ceilings, herringbone floors, custom moldings, abundant built-in storage, and two wood-burning fireplaces. Original prewar details are complemented by central air conditioning and sophisticated technology throughout.
The expansive living room enjoys Central Park views and is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, creating an elegant setting for entertaining or relaxed everyday living. An adjoining library/den, thoughtfully finished in rich blue tones, offers a more intimate space for reading or quiet conversation. With its electronic blackout shades, the room can also be transformed into a private movie room, creating a versatile space for both everyday living and entertaining.
The formal dining room, with a Juliet balcony, comfortably accommodates both large gatherings and more intimate dinners and flows naturally into the beautifully designed eat-in kitchen. With its impressive domed ceiling, generous breakfast area, oversized island with seating, and abundant natural light from a newly added window, the kitchen is as inviting as it is functional. It features two sinks, two dishwashers, and a show-stopping custom eight-burner BlueStar range and hood, with an interchangeable built-in grill option. A sophisticated collection of additional appliances includes Gaggenau, Viking, and Miele.
A striking staircase leads to the private upper level, which also has its own separate entrance, creating a beautifully defined bedroom level with additional living spaces and a sense of privacy from the entertaining rooms below.
The spacious primary suite also features a Juliet balcony, en-suite bath, custom closets, and a large walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms each have en-suite baths and beautiful Central Park views. A multi-purpose fourth bedroom is currently configured as a media room and private gym, while a separate windowed home office provides a quiet and private workspace.
Thoughtfully integrated technology enhances the home without compromising its classic character. Custom electronic shades are installed throughout, while lighting, HVAC, and shades can all be controlled conveniently from a smartphone. Hidden built-in speakers, discreetly integrated so they are virtually invisible, are located throughout the main entertaining rooms and primary suite.
Built in 1930, 1040 Fifth Avenue is one of the Upper East Side's distinguished prewar cooperatives, known for its privacy and attentive white-glove service. The location places Central Park, the city's renowned museums and cultural institutions, along with chic restaurants, boutiques, and excellent schools, just outside your door.
A private storage room transfers with the sale. The cooperative does not permit financing. A 2% flip tax is payable by the purchaser.
