Property Description

Fully renovated and turnkey, this immaculate 19th century brownstone sits on one of Manhattan's very few privately shared gardens. While situated within the garden community and the park-like landscape, the home still enjoys its own secluded sitting area and a hardwired gas grill. 157 East 65th Street is a grand, 5-bedroom, 4+ bathroom fully gut-renovated townhouse offering nearly 6,000 square feet of living space and rare access to the secluded gardens, invisible from the street and known only to neighboring residents. Built in the 1920s to replicate an English garden, Jones Wood Garden is a picturesque sanctuary that feels as though it were lifted from the pages of a fabled story, preserving the history of Old New York within the 12 brownstones along East 65th and 66th Streets.

Modern touches define the interiors of this six-level home, which is connected by a stunning central staircase and elevator, thoughtfully designed for both elegance and functionality. There are two entrances - a formal foyer that feels gracious and welcoming and a service corridor with a mudroom.

The light filled dining room features a wood-burning fireplace and direct access to the quarter-acre shared private garden, while the chef's kitchen impresses with radiant-heated tile floors, stone countertops, walnut cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, custom sinks, built-ins, pantry, and a desk workspace. A tucked away marble-clad powder room completes this level.

Ascending to the parlor floor, the great room stuns where solid oak, rift and quarter sawn floors anchor the space beneath the nearly 12-foot soaring ceilings. Three magical floor-to-ceiling windows flood the room with light, while the main picture window, measuring 7 by 9', perfectly frames views of the manicured gardens and elegant fountain. This level also offers two wood-burning fireplaces, a library with custom millwork, and a complete wet bar with an ice maker and wine fridge.

The primary suite, occupying the entire third floor, features four oversized windows framing serene garden views and two limestone wood-burning fireplaces. The marble-clad five-fixture bath boasts radiant-heated floors, dual vanities, a soaking tub with separate shower, and a handmade mosaic-tile floor. A corridor of custom closets provides abundant storage, while an additional front room offers flexible space for a sitting room, office, dressing room or additional bedroom.

The fourth floor offers two sun-filled bedrooms, each with an ensuite bath and private dressing area. Both feature bright exposures, high ceilings, and walk-in closets with ample storage.

On the fifth floor, a bedroom overlooking the garden boasts a private terrace, while an adjacent lofty den, bathed in natural light from a skylight and features 10-foot ceilings, opens onto a south-facing terrace. This versatile loft can serve as a home office, additional sixth bedroom, or creative studio, with the terrace offering an exceptional setting for entertaining.

The excavated lower level features a full-height gym, a multipurpose room, a powder room, and a separate laundry area, all complemented by robust technology infrastructure, mechanicals, and abundant storage. The space is exceptionally clean, organized, and meticulously maintained.

Additional features of the home include a private elevator serving all floors and a Savant Pro system that seamlessly integrates automated Lutron lighting, motorized shades, Sonos sound system, and a state-of-the-art digital security suite with cameras, intercom, and key-fob/key-card access. Individual climate control ensures every room remains perfectly comfortable year-round.

Located in the heart of Lenox Hill, this home is moments from the neighborhood's world class restaurants and shopping along with picturesque tree lined blocks and cafes and shops, while still offering quick access to Midtown. Fully turnkey, it provides everything the Upper East Side has to offer, simply bring your decorator and mo
