    What's special

    At 19.17’-wide and approximately 3,450 square feet with a functional, excavated basement, 159 East 82nd Street encompasses a traditional Upper East Side townhouse layout, with modern amenities, a fully landscaped garden, an outfitted roof deck and three to five bedrooms depending on your needs. Located on a tree-lined, townhouses block in a premier Upper East Side location, this renovated, sunlit house retains its original facade of classic ornamentation and has a high and wide stoop gracing the front forecourt. Upon stoop entry, the house lays out as a triple parlor floor with gracious ceilings, a formal dining room, an entertaining wet bar, and a picturesque living room facing south. House upgrades include two-zone Central Air Conditioning, Control 4 whole house automation system which currently controls audio, central cooling, and video security and alarm with endless other capabilities. The paved roof deck was built to support a pool with structural steel. The garden, which abuts townhouses on all sides, is beautifully appointed by Michael Trapp with mature plantings, an operable fountain, and a built-in natural gas barbecue. The garden level features a classic contemporary chef’s kitchen with top of the line appliances, informal dining and a large den with original marble mantle and open exposure to the garden. 159 East 82nd Street is conveniently located near Whole Foods Market, Equinox, Museum Mile, Central Park, The MET, the new Safra Community Center, the finest of Madison Avenue's retail shops, and all private and public schools including PS6 district, offering a rare blend of convenience and luxury. Located outside of the Upper East Side Historic District with approximately 2,800 square feet of unused air rights, this townhome offers the ability to add additional square footage, similar to many neighboring homes.
