Property Description for 9 East 82nd Street
Live in a Mansion on a Masterpiece Block.
Offered for sale is a 25-foot wide, approximately 10,925 square foot elevatored mansion located on a prime townhouse block just off Fifth Avenue. Originally built in 1895 as part of a quartet of Neoclassical limestone and buff brick homes with terra-cotta ornament, 9 East 82nd Street presents a rare opportunity to create a modern masterpiece on a substantial Upper East Side block. Currently configured as 8 residential units, the building is completely vacant. It is built 25 by 65 feet, with a 32 foot, half-width extension in the rear, creating an intimate garden along with two setback terraces on the second and fourth floors as the extension steps back.
Designed by Henry Anderson, the set of four homes to which 9 East 82nd Street belongs creates a beautifully unified presence on the block. The home's main entrance has a decorated portico paired with a low stoop, placed opposite an understated, separate service entrance. 9 East 82nd Street and its next door neighbor were originally owned by Ellen Prentice Kellogg and her son John Harvey Kellogg, who, along with his brother W. K. Kellogg, created the famous "Corn Flakes" breakfast cereal.
Located within the Metropolitan Museum Historic District, the fine homes on East 82nd Street were all originally built to strict standards set forth by the only restrictive covenant governing new construction in this area at the turn of the century. All homes were to be "first class" in quality. The unifying scale, materials, and Neoclassical style of this block beautifully connects it to the steps and main entrance of the Metropolitan Museum across Fifth Avenue.

Quick Profile
Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.
With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.
Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .
There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
