Located on the prestigious corner of Fifth Avenue and East 76th Street, the exquisite 950 Fifth Avenue cooperative, a masterpiece by renowned architect James E.R. Carpenter, presents an impeccably renovated duplex that masterfully blends contemporary elegance with classic pre-war aesthetics. This full-floor, 4-to-3-bedroom conversion radiates sophistication, with each room bathed in abundant southern light that cascades across the entire building length.
The private elevator opens into a grand entry gallery that introduces the home's symmetrical design, leading to a southwest corner living room with 10'5" ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, offering unobstructed Central Park views transforming the room into a living canvas that shifts with the seasons. A wood-burning fireplace adds a touch of tradition to this modern living space. Adjacent lies a library/media room, rich with custom millwork, and a seamless extension into the stately dining room, also featuring a wood-burning fireplace.
The culinary enthusiast will delight in the expansive chef's kitchen, equipped with top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances, custom stainless steel custom cabinetry, and an adjoining versatile staff room or gym with ensuite half bath and efficient laundry room. The elegant layout continues with a discreet powder room just off the entry gallery.
The architectural drama ascends with the double-height and windowed central staircase leading to the private upper quarters. The southwest corner master suite is a sanctuary with its own wood-burning fireplace, a bespoke oak dressing room, and a luxurious windowed master bath adorned with statuary white marble. The upper level also hosts two additional spacious bedroom suites, each with its own windowed marble bath, and a paneled study that doubles as a cozy den.
This home is not just a residence but a statement of luxury, with rift white oak flooring, custom lighting, and multi-zoned central air conditioning throughout, ensuring comfort in this timeless renovation. 950 Fifth Avenue offers an intimate and refined living experience, with just seven full-floor duplex residences across its fourteen floors, ensuring utmost privacy, discretion and security for its discerning residents.
