OPEN HOUSES ARE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. ADVANCE SCHEDULING REQUIRED Searching for the perfect large luxury apartment with nearly 3,000 square feet, more than 200 square feet of 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, Unit 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, encompassing Central Park, the Manhattan skyline and open sky. The 26th floor also offers an unusual degree of privacy, with only two households regularly using the hallway, creating a sense of separation that is increasingly difficult to find in a building of this scale. The current owners selected 26D for its exceptional proportions, open layout and dramatic outlook, then worked closely with their architect and contractors on an extensive gut renovation, rebuilding the apartment to their specifications. The result is a highly customized residence with sophisticated finishes, integrated technology and thoughtful architectural details throughout. Expansive living and dining areas flow from east to west, surrounded by windows and opening directly onto the balcony through two doors. Custom-designed planters provide the opportunity to create an elevated garden. Two original concrete columns were uncovered, cleaned 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 serious cooking and entertaining. An approximately 18-foot island provides exceptional preparation and gathering space and incorporates 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. The pantry houses a large EuroCave wine refrigerator that the owners are willing to leave without representation or guarantee. The flexible configuration currently provides three bedrooms, with the original fourth bedroom incorporated into the primary suite to create an expansive walk-in dressing room with substantial closet capacity and a separate windowed alcove currently used as a home office. The space can be converted back to a fourth bedroom if desired. The primary suite also includes additional storage and a renovated bathroom with a large walk-in shower and accessibility features. Two additional bedrooms offer excellent natural light and ample closets. A second full bathroom with a tub serves these bedrooms, while a separate powder room provides additional convenience for guests. The original engineered flooring was removed and replaced with a new subfloor and white oak hardwood finished in a pale grey stain. Custom washi paper panels created by a Japanese artist enhance selected closet and bathroom doors, adding another distinctive design element. The home is equally impressive behind the scenes. Lutron solar shades and lighting are installed throughout and can be operated from wall controls or compatible smartphones and tablets, with blackout shades in the bedrooms. Five HVAC wall units, three serving the living and dining areas and two serving the bedrooms, are individually programmed through the extensive Savant smart-home system, which also controls lighting, shades and fans. For buyers who value premium home audio, the owners intend to make a collection of high-end equipment available with the apartment as part of an acceptable sale, including four Linn Akurate 212 speakers, additional smaller Linn speakers and three NAD M10 integrated amplifiers. Together with the Savant system and concealed wiring throughout the residence, the equipment creates a sophisticated A/V environment without exposed wiring or the disruption and expense of installing new infrastructure. Certain removable components may otherwise be retained by the sellers. The owners can also introduce the purchaser to Innovative Audio, an A/V company familiar with the apartment and its systems. Additional conveniences include an in-unit washer and dryer. Fifth on the Park at 1485 Fifth Avenue is a full-service luxury condominium offering an extensive collection of amenities. Residents enjoy a 24-hour attended lobby with doorman and concierge, three elevators, fitness center, playroom, residents' lounge with catering kitchen, landscaped outdoor terraces with grilling areas, bicycle storage, live-in superintendent, on-site property management and an on-site valet parking garage. A standout amenity is the building's 55-foot heated indoor lap pool with adjacent sundeck. Large enough for dedicated lap swimming yet equally suited to a more leisurely swim, it offers residents the convenience of year-round swimming without leaving the building and is one of Fifth on the Park's most distinctive amenities. Current common charges for Unit 26D are approximately $3,500 per month. Current real estate taxes are just $356.50 annually, or approximately $29.71 per month, benefiting from the building's long-term 421a tax abatement, which is reported to remain in effect through June 2034. Located in South Harlem directly across from Marcus Garvey Park, Fifth on the Park combines neighborhood character with exceptional convenience. The park's Richard Rodgers Amphitheater hosts a broad calendar of cultural programming, including the Classical Theatre of Harlem's free summer theater and performances associated with the annual Charlie Parker Jazz Festival. Some of Harlem's best-known neighborhood destinations are close at hand. Whole Foods and Trader Joe's provide everyday convenience, while Settepani, Barawine, Archer & Goat, Indian Summer, Red Rooster and Sylvia's reflect the diversity of Harlem's dining scene. Along Lenox Avenue, Sottocasa Pizzeria, Cucina Italian Tavern and Pastitalia offer additional options within easy reach of home.
