Perched high above Fifth Avenue, on the twelfth floor of 1050, this mint condition two bedroom has it all: location, light and views. There is a particular quality of light that feels almost borrowed from the park itself. It drifts in from the south, washes across the floors, and settles quietly against a horizon of treetops, the limestone crown of the Metropolitan Museum, and the distant geometry of Midtown. From here, Central Park is not simply a view. It is a living canvas, shifting with the hour, the season, the weather. The city hums below, but inside, there is calm.
The apartment has been reimagined with a steady and disciplined hand. A gracious foyer, lined with custom closets, opens into a dining area and then to a broad living room where the park unfurls beyond. The proportions are generous, the lines clean. Solid hardwood floors have been soundproofed underfoot. Millwork is precise and quietly confident. Recessed lighting and electronically controlled sunshades respond to mood and moment, allowing the architecture and the view to remain the true focal points.
In the kitchen, beauty and performance move in tandem. Sub Zero, Wolf, and Bosch appliances are seamlessly integrated. A built in Miele espresso system stands ready for early mornings that begin with light spilling over the park. Taj Mahal quartzite counters catch that light in soft relief, while porcelain tile floors ground the space in durability and restraint. An in-unit Asko washer and dryer, along with fully updated plumbing and electrical systems, reflect a renovation that considered not only how the home looks, but how it lives.
The primary suite faces south, serene and open to sky. Custom millwork frames a dressing area and an ample walk-in closet. The en suite bath is rendered in marble and porcelain, finished with refined fixtures and bespoke cabinetry that feel tailored rather than ornate. The second bedroom, currently designed as a den or guest suite behind glass paneled pocket doors, is equally balanced in scale and grace, with its own marble bath accented by silver leaf glass tile that catches the light like a quiet flourish.
Built in 1959 by Melvin D. Lipman and Bernard Spitzer, 1050 Fifth Avenue remains one of the Upper East Side’s most established cooperative addresses. A full time doorman and live in staff provide attentive service. Residents enjoy a roof deck, fitness room, common storage, and a garage with guaranteed parking at favorable rates. Pets are welcome. Financing up to fifty percent is permitted. There is currently a monthly assessment of $652 dollars in place through December 2026.
