Property Description for 205 East 85th Street, 17-D

Perched high above the Upper East Side, Residence 17D at The Brompton offers an exceptional combination of scale, light, views, and private outdoor space rarely found in a condominium residence. This expansive four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home is surrounded by three private terraces totaling approximately 733 square feet, creating multiple outdoor settings for lounging, entertaining, dining, or simply taking in open city views, glimpses of Central Park, and beautiful sunset light. Oversized windows and open northern, western, and southern exposures fill the residence with natural light throughout the day. A gracious entry gallery sets an elegant tone upon arrival, creating a natural separation between the home’s expansive entertaining spaces and its two private bedroom wings. The large living room is wrapped in oversized windows and opens directly onto the main terrace, allowing for a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Just beyond, the windowed dining room connects easily to the living space, offering a refined yet comfortable setting for both intimate dinners and larger-scale entertaining. Soaring ceilings and beautifully maintained Italian oak herringbone floors add warmth, character, and sophistication throughout the main living areas. The custom windowed eat-in kitchen is designed for both function and comfort, featuring Corian countertops, maple cabinetry, and a full suite of premium appliances, including a Viking double oven, six-burner vented gas range, GE microwave, 48-inch Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, Viking wine refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, and garbage disposal. A built-in breakfast bar completes the space, offering a casual place to dine while enjoying open city views. Privately positioned down its own corridor, the primary suite feels like a true retreat. Bright and airy with dual exposures, and partial Central Park views, the suite features two large walk-in closets and a marble spa-like bath with a soaking tub, double vanity, and oversized glass-enclosed shower. Three additional bedrooms are thoughtfully separated from the central living areas, each offering generous proportions, an en-suite bath, and access to one of the home’s additional terraces. A dedicated laundry closet with a full-size, vented Miele washer and dryer adds everyday convenience, while central heating and air conditioning are seamlessly integrated throughout. The Brompton is a full-service condominium offering a 24-hour doorman, white-glove concierge service, renovated resident lounge with landscaped garden terrace, children’s playroom, fitness center, and furnished rooftop sundeck. Residents also enjoy preferred access to the on-site Equinox and a private East 86th Street entrance, placing transportation, dining, shopping, Central Park, and Carl Schurz Park all within easy reach. Monthly assessment of $849.01 through December 2027 for ongoing building capital improvements

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.
