Overview
Welcome to this spacious convertible 3-bedroom duplex on a great Upper East Side block!
There are many special pre-war details throughout the apartment, including exposed brick, a working fireplace, nearly 10-foot ceilings, built-ins, and hardwood floors, just to name a few.
Currently, the home is set up as a 2-bed, 2 full bath with a convertible third room that could be used as another bedroom or a second living room/den, and even a dining room if needed. With about 1,200 square feet of space, there are a lot of flexible living options.
As you enter the parlor level, you’ll come into a gracious entry foyer, and expansive living room that receives beautiful light throughout the day. The wood burning fireplace and mantle are the focal points of the room.
The primary bedroom on this floor faces south and stays sunny and bright. It could fit a king size bed, and also has both a sizable closet and built-ins for storage.
The downstairs second bedroom is also oversized and could fit a king, with a closet and in unit laundry. Both the washer and dryer are full sized, brand new, and the dryer vents out. As bonus, they fit next to each rather than being stackable.
In the kitchen you’ll find updated finishes, with stainless steel appliances, a full-sized dishwasher, fridge, and gas stove. There are plenty of both upper and lower cabinets, as well as counter space.
The convertible third space offers a lot of flexibility. It also features a closet and large paned windows that bring in natural light throughout the day.
Both bathrooms are in great condition with brand new Toto toilets and excellent storage.
This is a well-run, self-managed building, with no underlying mortgage, and very attractive maintenance for the neighborhood. The exterior has been maintained and preserved for maximum curb appeal on the street. No pets allowed.
E 78th is arguably one of the best blocks in the neighborhood, offering both charm and convenient neighborhood amenities. There are multiple coffee shops, great restaurants, bars, and shops (including Orwashers, a 100-year-old artisan bakery, that sells some of the best fresh sourdough daily) all within minutes (if not seconds!) from your doorstep. Agata and Valentina, a popular specialty grocery store, is around the corner at E 79th and 1st Ave. Whole Foods is nearby, as well as Morton Williams, Butterfield Market, and Eli’s Market.
There are several train lines for easy access to the rest of the city. The Q at both E 72nd and 2nd Ave, and E 86th and 2nd Ave. The 6 train at E 77th and Lexington Ave, and the 4,5,6 at E 86th and Lexington Ave.

Upper East Side
Overview of Upper East Side
The Upper East Side (UES) is the epitome of classic New York wealth and culture. Stretching from Central Park to the East River, it is home to Museum Mile, Madison Avenue fashion, and some of the most prestigious addresses in the world. For buyers seeking Upper East Side Manhattan real estate, it offers a lifestyle of polished elegance and safety.
Living in the Upper East Side ranges from the ultra-luxury of Fifth Avenue to the bustling, younger energy of Second Avenue. As a premier Manhattan NYC neighborhood, it remains the gold standard for residential stability and top-tier schools.
Real Estate & Housing Market
The market for homes for sale in the Upper East Side is surprisingly diverse. While famous for $20 million townhouses and co-ops, the eastern avenues (Yorkville) offer excellent value for studios and one-bedrooms.
It is valid to say it has two markets: the "Gold Coast" west of Lexington (historic, expensive, co-op heavy) and the area east of Lexington (more condos, more rentals, more affordable).
Lifestyle & Community
The lifestyle on the UES is refined. Residents spend weekends at the Met or the Guggenheim, jogging in Central Park, and dining at established bistros. It is less trendy than downtown but more livable.
The community is generational. You will see grandmothers and toddlers who both grew up in the neighborhood. It feels established, clean, and manicured.
Transportation & Accessibility
The Upper East Side was transformed by the Second Avenue Subway (Q train), which relieved pressure on the 4/5/6 line. Now, the area feels incredibly connected to Midtown and downtown.
The crosstown buses through the park (at 65th, 79th, 86th, 96th) are vital lifelines to the West Side.
Parks, Schools & Amenities
Central Park is the neighborhood's front yard. Carl Schurz Park on the East River is a hidden gem with a dog run and promenade.
Amenities are world-class. The area has the highest concentration of private schools in the city (Dalton, Spence, Chapin) and top hospitals (Lenox Hill, Mt Sinai), making it a magnet for families and professionals.
Who This Neighborhood Is Best For
The Upper East Side is best for families, culture lovers, and anyone who wants a classic, safe, and green New York City experience.
