Property Details
Description
A 50' expanse from the Living Room to the Formal Dining Room and breathtaking southern views across 86th Street, over the Neue Gallery, Central Park, and the majestic prewar buildings of Central Park West to the glittering towers of Billionaire's Row. The north and east corner windows of the Formal Dining Room look to open sky over townhomes below and to beautifully planted penthouses across to 87th Street.
Every room of this 17th floor, classic 8 room home, has the golden glow of sunlight from sunrise to sunset. There is a lovely terrace with full glass doors from the Living Room and one of the four bedrooms. All the windows are expansive as the late 1950s and early 1960s buildings offered the best of both post war in design such as walls of windows, multiple en-suite bathrooms, and lots of closets combined with prewar classic layouts, large, windowed kitchens with breakfast rooms and staff accommodations. This home has it all.
The primary bedroom is private as it has its own entry/dressing area with direct access to the en-suite bathroom rather than from the main bedroom area. There are three large closets and four additional closets functioning as drawer and additional hanging spaces.
The three secondary bedrooms are each voluminous, offering household members equally spacious personal spaces. The fourth bedroom can also function as the media room with easy access from either the dining room or from the bedroom hall.
There are 4.5 bathrooms, fantastic closet space throughout including huge coat closet, a perfect flow and distribution of space, an entry hall that opens to a central gallery connecting the entertaining spaces. Approximately 2,916 square feet with great walls for art collectors, 17A is a perfect blank canvass for your designer and contractor.
Washer and dryers are permitted in the apartment, 50% financing, low maintenance at $6,650 cats and dogs are welcomed.
1050 Fifth Avenue is one of the most sort after buildings not only on Fifth with the park your own backyard, but in Carnegie Hill area. There are currently four apartments in contract in the building.
Known for its stunning modern features, the building lobby has full walls of windows looking out to the park and down Fifth, filling it with light all day. The onsite parking garage with special rates for shareholders, is accessible from the basement of the building. 1050's proximity to multiple private and public schools, and houses of worship is another reason to want to live here. Within four blocks are several museums, including the Met and Guggenheim, cafes, fine dining and around the corner on Madison are grocers and specialty food shops.
There is a monthly assessment of $1,197 per month ending December 2026 and a monthly bulk Spectrum charge of $53.25.
