MOVE RIGHT IN. Located directly across the street from the Metropolitan Museum, this beautiful 7 room residence has been lovingly restored to seamlessly blend timeless charm with modern sophistication. Newly renovated and move-in ready, this stunning home features rooms of grand proportion, abundant prewar details, and excellent light throughout, as well as brand new Pella windows, refinished hardwood floors, and through-wall AC.

A gracious entry foyer leads to all major areas of the home.

Designed by John B. Peterkin and built in 1926, 1016 Fifth Avenue is an elegant and stately pre-war cooperative with one of the most beautiful and distinctive lobbies in the city. This white glove building offers a full-time doorman, live in resident manager and new, state of the art fitness center. Pets and pieds-à-terres are welcome, and 50% financing is permitted.
