Description
61 East 80th Street is a meticulously designed, magnificent, triple-mint townhouse, nestled on one of the Upper East Side's most coveted streets. Built in 1920, this 20-foot-wide townhouse spans over 9,000 sq ft of interior and exterior space, spread across six floors and currently configured as 3 bedrooms, with an alternate configuration of 5, with 4 bathrooms and 2 powder rooms. Among its luxurious features are a designer rooftop terrace, a breathtaking garden accessible from the first floor, a commercial-grade oversized elevator, five gas-burning fireplaces, and separately zoned HVAC with humidity control. The grand steel and hardwood staircase winds through the house, culminating in a striking skylight that bathes the home in natural light. Every detail has been carefully considered in this beautifully renovated, elegant home.
Upon entering through the grand foyer, you are greeted by soaring ceilings and streams of natural light from both north and south exposures. English walnut throughout creates a warm, inviting atmosphere, offering a seamless flow past a cozy sitting den and into the expansive chef's eat-in kitchen, which opens directly to the beautifully manicured garden. On the second floor, a sophisticated bar/den space sits between the living room with gas-burning fireplace-featuring a terrace overlooking the garden- formal dining room, currently configured as an office, boasts a gas-burning fireplace and full-size wine refrigerator.
The third floor is dedicated to the tranquil primary suite. The spacious bedroom, featuring a gas-burning fireplace and garden views, is complemented by a double-sized bathroom with a separate shower and soaking tub. A no-expense-spared, custom-built dressing room completes this serene retreat. The fourth floor is reserved for additional bedrooms paired with a double bathroom.
Ascend to the fifth floor, which offers over 1,100 square feet of open, loft-like space, with English walnut floors and ceiling, a gas-burning fireplace, perfect for entertainment or relaxation. A fully designed roof deck with a fire pit provides a peaceful escape, while the skylight above the staircase floods the home with light from above. The lower level offers a staff room, full bath, and an oversized laundry room, in addition to a spacious auxiliary space.
61 East 80th Street is ideally located just one block from Central Park, with the MET, the Guggenheim Museum, and some of the finest shopping and dining that New York City has to offer nearby. This exceptional townhouse is a rare opportunity to experience the epitome of Upper East Side living.

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 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.
