Searching for a large luxury apartment with nearly 3,000 square feet, private outdoor space and unobstructed views of Central Park, the Manhattan skyline, sunrises and sunsets? You may want to expand your search.
Perched on the 26th floor of Fifth on the Park, Residence 26D offers approximately 2,890 square feet, a 245-square-foot private balcony, floor-to-ceiling windows and unobstructed 270-degree views across east, west and south exposures. With only two households regularly using the 26th-floor hallway, the residence enjoys unusual privacy within a full-service luxury condominium.
The current owners selected 26D for its exceptional proportions, open layout and dramatic views, then undertook an extensive gut renovation. The result is a highly customized home with sophisticated finishes, integrated technology and thoughtful architectural details.
Expansive living and dining areas flow east to west, opening directly onto the balcony. Custom planters offer the opportunity for an elevated garden. Original concrete columns were uncovered and polished, while a custom window seat with built-in storage occupies the southwest corner.
At the heart of the home is a chef-quality kitchen designed for cooking and entertaining. An approximately 18-foot island provides exceptional preparation and gathering space, incorporating a wine refrigerator and two dishwashers. Custom cabinetry, Sub-Zero refrigeration, a GE Monogram gas double oven and grill, and an enclosed walk-in pantry complete the kitchen.
Originally configured with four bedrooms, the residence offers a flexible layout, with the former fourth bedroom incorporated into the primary suite as an adjacent bedroom or separate windowed home office. This versatile space can be restored to its original bedroom configuration if desired. The primary suite also features a walk-in closet and a custom renovated en-suite bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower. An additional utility closet adjacent to the bathroom offers the potential for use as another walk-in closet.
Two additional bedrooms enjoy excellent natural light and ample closets, with a second full bathroom featuring a bathtub nearby. A separate powder room provides convenience for guests.
White oak hardwood floors finished in a pale grey stain extend throughout, complemented by custom washi paper panels created by a Japanese artist.
Lutron solar shades and lighting are installed throughout, with blackout shades in the bedrooms. Five individually programmable HVAC units are integrated with Savant, which also controls lighting, shades and fans. Concealed wiring supports integrated audio. Additional conveniences include generous storage and an in-unit washer and dryer.
