Property Description for 405 East 82nd Street, 5-J
Classic One-Bedroom with 10-Foot Ceilings and Exceptional Flexibility
Apartment # 5J is a wonderfully proportioned one-bedroom with approximately 10-foot ceilings, original wood floors and a comfortable, quietly residential feel. Located in a well-maintained elevator building, this inviting home offers the space and flexibility that make it equally appealing as a first home, pied-à-terre or investment property.
The living room is well proportioned and enjoys a peaceful rear-facing outlook, while the adjacent kitchen is open to the living space and features classic white cabinetry, a generous breakfast bar and ceramic tile flooring. The original wood floors lend the apartment warmth and character, complementing the home's high ceilings and traditional proportions.
The bedroom is also positioned at the rear of the building, creating a remarkably quiet sleeping environment and offering ample room for a king-size bed. Generous closet space throughout the apartment provides excellent storage, while the bathroom is a clean white ceramic, thoughtfully positioned racks, with a bathtub and shower; all well maintained.
The building itself is incredibly well cared for, with an elevator and a convenient laundry room in the basement. Adding significant appeal for both homeowners and investors, subletting is permitted from the time of purchase, subject to board approval (providing a level of flexibility that is increasingly difficult to find).
Located on a lovely tree-lined block, just moments from the Q subway and numerous bus routes, the home is surrounded by beloved family-run restaurants, gourmet markets including Agata & Valentina, and the bucolic Carl Schurz Park. It offers an ideal combination of residential tranquility and convenient access to the best of the Upper East Side.
Whether you're looking for a first Manhattan home, a pied-à-terre or a flexible investment opportunity, Apartment # 5J presents an appealing combination of scale, character, location and value.
We welcome you to schedule a private viewing.

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.
