It is our distinct pleasure to present Residence 7C at 1050 Fifth Avenue, an exceptional home at one of Manhattan's most coveted addresses, ideally situated at the corner of 86th Street & Fifth Avenue & directly across from Central Park. Previously a two-bedroom, two-bath residence, this remarkable home has been meticulously renovated & thoughtfully reimagined into a grand one-bedroom with one full bath & a beautifully appointed powder room. The result is a sophisticated, urban loft-like residence distinguished by an extraordinary sense of scale, volume & flow-offering expansive living & entertaining spaces that are both elegant & effortlessly livable, The current configuration transforms the former second bedroom into an elegant dining space, while retaining the proportions & graciousness of a classic Fifth Avenue home. The offering plan reflects the original two-bedroom, two-bath, providing an added measure of flexibility for a future owner who may wish to easily restore the residence to its original two-bedroom & two-bath layout.

From the gracious entry foyer, the residence unfolds into an impressive entertaining environment, with a spectacular living room & generous dining area that seamlessly flow together.

Premium appliances include a Gaggenau range, Miele dishwasher & Sub-Zero refrigerator with dual freezers, complemented by a separate pantry closet.

This tranquil retreat features custom built-ins with elegant sliding art panels, generous closet space & a dedicated study area with beautiful views of Central Park & the skyline.
