Set in the heart of the Metropolitan Museum Historic District, this grand and stately townhouse was built in the Queen Anne style by builder-architect Edward Kilpatrick in 1888 and was first occupied by Van Wyck and Mary Brinckerhoff. 16 East 82nd Street is five stories tall with intricate faade details, including three round-arched windows (formerly with stoop entry), a dentiled cornice and a steep roof with two gabled dormers. At 25’-wide and approximately 9,468 square feet of interior space, 16 East 82nd Street is currently configured as a ground floor doctor’s office below six residential apartments – four free market and two rent stabilized.This opportunity is rare and unique and the location is irreplaceable. There are 21 grand mansions on the block and this stately townhouse is only steps to Central Park and the finest of Madison Avenue’s retail shops. Future uses include live with income, long-term hold of a trophy investment asset, or single-family mansion conversion.
