Description
Garden Duplex with Townhouse Feel - Welcome to Residence 1R at 432 East 85th Street Tucked on a quiet Upper East Side block, Apt. 1R is a 2 bedroom + den, 2 bathroom duplex with a genuine townhouse feel and a rare private two-tier garden. Prewar character—exposed brick, built-ins, and hardwood floors—meets easy indoor-outdoor living, with French doors drawing the eye straight to the greenery as you enter. The upper floor functions as a true sleeping wing: a serene primary bedroom with walk-in closet, two windows, and Friedrich through-the-wall A/C sits alongside a flexible den/recreation area, a second bedroom, and a full bath finished with tiled walls, tub, and fixtures. Thoughtful storage keeps this level calm and clutter-free. Downstairs, the living/dining area is anchored by a classic brick fireplace and custom shelving. The open marble kitchen features stainless-steel appliances including a gas range, dishwasher, and sink disposal. A second full bath offers a rainfall shower and sleek, modern fixtures. Additional conveniences include a welcoming foyer and a storage room at the lower entry. Your garden lives like two distinct outdoor rooms: a lower decked terrace for dining and lounging, separated by a planting strip from an upper stone-paved patio wrapped in mature greenery—ideal for morning coffee, evening gatherings, and four-season container gardening. 432 East 85th Street is an intimate, self-managed prewar walk-up co-op with laundry in the building and an intercom system. Washer/dryers in unit are allowed with board approval. Pied-à-terre and co-purchasing are permitted; no gifting and no guarantors. Only cats allowed. Convenient to neighborhood dining, markets, and multiple subway options, including the Q and 4/5/6 lines. *Some images may be virtually staged.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its quiet, 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.
