Welcome to this classic 10-room prewar residence at 45 East 82nd Street — a rare combination of scale, light, and timeless elegance. Encompassing approximately 3,600 square feet, this home offers sweeping open views in every direction—north, south, east, and west—and has been thoughtfully updated for a seamless, move-in-ready experience.
A semi-private elevator landing opens to an elegant foyer that flows into a grand, south-facing living room bathed in natural light, with open Midtown views and generous space for multiple seating arrangements. Adjacent is a sophisticated library/home office with custom built-ins.
The formal dining room faces east and features 9’8” ceilings, easily accommodating both large gatherings and intimate dinners. Pocket doors open to a bright, white chef’s kitchen, outfitted with premium appliances, a vented range, and custom banquette seating for eight—perfect for casual dining or morning coffee in the sun.
The primary suite, located off the library for maximum privacy, is a serene retreat with open southern and western exposures toward Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum. It includes a luxurious five-fixture bath and multiple walk-in closets.
The opposite wing houses three spacious bedrooms, each with abundant light and excellent closet space, plus two additional full baths. Two former staff rooms have been repurposed as a laundry room with exceptional storage and a fifth bedroom with en-suite bath, offering great flexibility.
Throughout, elegant hardwood floors, nearly 10-foot ceilings, intricate moldings, and through-wall HVAC enhance comfort and style. Additional highlights include custom closets, built-ins, and Sonos sound in the entertaining areas and primary suite.
Located just one block from Central Park and The Met, this distinguished cooperative offers 24-hour doorman service, a live-in superintendent, private storage, bike room, and exceptionally low monthly maintenance. Pets are welcome.
