Master architect J.E.R. Carpenter’s 1030 Fifth Avenue is an elegant prewar cooperative designed in a neo-Italianate style and completed in 1925. Perfectly situated, this distinguished building is moments from Central Park, Neue Galerie, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and is convenient to many of New York City’s best schools, restaurants, museums, and galleries. Within this handsome limestone building, this wonderful residence wraps the southwest corner of Fifth Avenue and East 84th Street and presents grandly proportioned rooms, elegantly tall ceilings, beautiful herringbone-patterned hardwood floors, and period moldings. The apartment’s very welcoming and flexible layout lends itself to the notion of gracious entertaining and a comfortable and convenient lifestyle. Access to the residence is possible both from 1030 Fifth Avenue’s glamorous marble lobby or through a private entrance located on Fifth Avenue, replete with pretty sidewalk landscaping.

From the lobby entrance, a welcoming rectangular Gallery opens to a very attractive Living Room featuring western outlooks onto Fifth Avenue, the Metropolitan Museum’s iconic limestone façade, and the fountains and trees of David H. Koch Plaza. Adjacent, there is a handsome wood-paneled Library with similarly enticing outlooks and a wood burning fireplace. A Powder Room and coat closets are conveniently accessible from the Gallery Beyond, the stainless steel eat-in chef’s Kitchen features a windowed banquette, and is supported by a separate Butler’s Pantry area, a Powder Room/Laundry Room, and an Office.

The tranquil Primary Bedroom suite, separated from the rest of the residence by a long hallway, wraps the southwest corner of the building, offering wonderful views onto the Avenue, the Metropolitan Museum and the tree-lined side street, and features a windowed dressing room with very ample closets and an ensuite bathroom. There is one additional Bedroom with its ensuite bathroom. 1030 Fifth Avenue features an attractive canopied entrance on East 84th Street with pretty sidewalk landscaping, a divinely elegant marble lobby, and a private fitness center.
