Sweeping vistas, radiant natural light, and refined architectural details define this exceptional corner two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence at One Museum Mile - Robert A.M. Stern's Fifth Avenue crown jewel condominium, overlooking Central Park. From the living room, enjoy the changing seasons with oblique views across Central Park's treetops, dramatic southern exposures framing the Manhattan skyline, and eastern sightlines extending toward the East River.

Thoughtfully planned and impeccably maintained, this refined residence offers a seamless split-bedroom layout that balances modern precision with inviting warmth. A gracious entry foyer leads into a beautifully scaled corner living and dining room wrapped in oversized windows complemented by wide-planked hardwood floors.

The windowed kitchen is both striking and functional, anchored by a dramatic wall of glass that fills the space with natural light. Sleek stone countertops complement floor-to-ceiling Zebrano cabinetry, while a suite of premium appliances - including a Thermador five-burner cooktop and oven, Miele ventilated hood, integrated Thermador refrigerator and freezer, and Bosch dishwasher - make for effortless entertaining.

The generously proportioned primary suite is bathed in southern light and side views toward Central Park. A custom walk-in closet provides excellent storage, and the spa-caliber bath is finished in Jerusalem limestone with a Zuma soaking tub, polished marble surfaces, and refined millwork that feels both timeless and serene.

Privately situated on the opposite wing, the second bedroom offers open southern exposures and its own en-suite bath adorned with abalone shell mosaic detailing, Tundra Grey marble flooring, a frameless glass shower, and elegant stone-topped vanity. An in-unit washer and dryer, central HVAC, and abundant closet space throughout complete this elevated city home, offering comfort and ease high above Fifth Avenue.

Completed in 2010, One Museum Mile is one of Fifth Avenue's most architecturally distinguished contemporary condominiums. Conceived by Robert A.M. Stern with interiors by Andre Kikoski, the building reflects enduring materials and classical proportions reinterpreted for modern living. The amenity program rivals that of a private club, including a heated rooftop swimming pool, landscaped roof terraces with outdoor kitchens and sweeping Park and skyline views, a residents' lounge with fireplace, a state-of-the-art fitness center, children's playroom, teen lounge, poker and game room, a formal 20-seat dining room with Central Park views, catering kitchen, bicycle storage, cold storage, and on-site parking garage. Full-service staffing ensures seamless daily living.

Positioned moments from the Conservancy Gardens, the revitalized Davis Center at Harlem Meer, and the newly opened Gottesman Rink, the location offers immediate access to both recreation and culture. Museum Mile unfolds along Fifth Avenue, while Whole Foods on 125th Street and the established offerings of the Upper East Side are nearby. Transportation is effortless, the 2/3 and the 6 trains are within a 5-10 minute walk, placing Midtown approximately fifteen minutes away.

Pets are permitted. Real estate taxes reflect a non-primary residence, the taxes will be 17.5% lower if the unit qualifies as a primary residence. For buyers considering a 1031 exchange, additional information is available upon request.
