Property Description for 405 East 82nd Street, 5-HJ

A Rare Opportunity to Create a Larger Upper East Side Residence

Two adjacent one-bedroom residences, Apartments 5H and 5J offer a compelling opportunity to create a more expansive, personalized home in a well-maintained Upper East Side elevator building. With approximately 10-foot ceilings, quiet rear-facing exposures and well-proportioned layouts, the apartments provide an appealing canvas for those seeking greater scale, flexibility and the opportunity to shape a residence around their own vision.

Each apartment brings its own distinctive character. Apartment 5H features wide-plank white oak floors, an open kitchen with a breakfast bar and a renovated bathroom finished in white marble. Apartment 5J offers a more traditional aesthetic, with original wood floors, classic white kitchen cabinetry and ceramic tile flooring. Together, they present an opportunity to combine contemporary finishes with timeless architectural character.

Both homes enjoy peaceful views over neighboring backyards, creating a welcome sense of quiet and privacy. Depending on the feasibility of a combination, the additional space could allow for a more generous living and dining area, an expanded primary suite, additional bedrooms or a dedicated home office. The flexibility to explore a bespoke layout makes this an especially appealing proposition for buyers whose needs extend beyond the conventional one-bedroom apartment.

The building is exceptionally well cared for, with elevator service and a convenient laundry room in the basement. Subletting is permitted from the time of purchase, subject to board approval, offering additional flexibility for both homeowners and investors.

Set on a lovely tree-lined block, just moments from the Q subway and numerous bus routes, the property is surrounded by beloved family-run restaurants, gourmet markets including Agata & Valentina, and the bucolic Carl Schurz Park. The setting combines residential tranquility with convenient access to the best of the Upper East Side.

Whether envisioned as a spacious primary residence, a flexible Manhattan pied-à-terre or a long-term investment, the opportunity to combine Apartments 5H and 5J offers the potential to create something distinctive, with greater scale and a personal point of view in a sought-after residential setting.

Private viewings are welcomed 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.
