Description

Located on one of the prettiest and most special tree-lined streets on the Upper East Side, this charming and pristine house feels so much wider than its 16 feet due to the placement of the stairs, the ceiling heights in the house and the low buildings to both the north and south, The four story plus basement, single-family townhouse with a rare 50' private garden flanked by other townhouse gardens on all sides, is bright and sunny and has a wonderful sense of volume. With four bedrooms, a very special library, a formal dining room, and an eat-in kitchen (with top appliances) which opens to the professionally landscaped and lit garden, this house is elegant, serene and perfect. A fully finished basement with a temperature controlled wine cellar, laundry, storage and a playroom allows you to live in New York City with the benefits of a house in the suburbs. 429 East 84th Street has updated central air conditioning, two recently refurbished wood burning fireplaces, beautiful original wood details throughout and a perfectly restored brownstone stoop and facade. Originally built in 1899, the house is one of six houses built together, each the mirror image of the one next door. Located two blocks from the amazing Q train and close to the 4,5,6 trains, the location is convenient and fun and has easy access to the FDR and airports. The neighborhood is brimming with great food shopping, cute restaurants and coffee spots and activities including Carl Schurz Park (with a great playground, dog runs, basketball and pickleball), The Penrose, Quatorze, Asphalt Green, Whole Foods, Agata & Valentina, The Milton, Jones Wood Foundry, Shake Shack, Schaller & Weber, Levain, Soul Cycle and Rumble - just to name a few. Low taxes and a great block association make this house even more appealing.

Building Information

The Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
