Property Description for 205 East 85th Street, PH-2CD

A Remarkable Six-Bedroom Penthouse at The Brompton

Now available for rent, Penthouse 2CD is an exceptional six-bedroom, seven-and-a-half-bathroom residence offering approximately 6,000 square feet of beautifully proportioned living space. With three fireplaces, nearly 10-foot ceilings, and gracious rooms designed for both formal entertaining and everyday living, this remarkable home reflects the architectural vision of Robert A.M. Stern and the quality of a Related development.
A private entry opens into a grand 40-foot central gallery, drawing the eye toward a south-facing window and creating an impressive sense of arrival. The gallery provides a natural division between the residence's entertaining spaces and private bedroom wings.
The expansive, commercial-grade kitchen combines professional functionality with a refined residential aesthetic. Features include generous preparation surfaces, a six-burner range, two Sub-Zero refrigerators, a substantial pantry, and a separate butler's pantry. A bright and spacious dining area provides ample room for casual meals and everyday gatherings.
Beyond the kitchen, the formal dining room and living room occupy distinct corners of the residence and offer extraordinary scale. The south- and east-facing dining room and the south- and west-facing living room each feature a fireplace. Adjacent to the living room is a more relaxed space that can serve as a den, media room, or library.
Along the western wing, two en suite bedrooms are complemented by a central den or playroom, which may also function as a seventh bedroom. Farther removed from the principal entertaining spaces, an expansive guest suite offers proportions comparable to many primary bedrooms, along with a generous walk-in closet.
The eastern wing includes two additional bright and gracious en suite bedrooms, as well as the extraordinary primary suite. Oriented toward the south for abundant natural light and privacy, the suite features a fireplace, two full bathrooms, three walk-in closets, and a windowed dressing room or styling studio. Grand in scale yet serene in atmosphere, it provides a true private retreat within the home.
Additional details include chevron-patterned floors, nearly 10-foot ceilings, and a striking gilded powder room hand-painted by Richard Jordan.
Designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects, The Brompton is one of the Upper East Side's most distinguished full-service condominiums. Residents enjoy a full-time doorman and concierge, a landscaped roof terrace and garden, a children's playroom and recreation room, bicycle storage, and direct access to the Equinox Fitness Club.
Ideally positioned in the coveted East 80s, Penthouse 2CD offers exceptional scale, privacy, and service in one of Manhattan's most desirable residential neighborhoods. Available for private showings by appointment.

Upper East Side | Manhattan

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.
