Overview of 39 East 75th Street

Built in 1881 by noted architect Thom & Wilson for a prominent New York family during the Gilded Age, 39 East 75th Street is a historic Nineteenth Century Neo-Grec townhouse that was converted to a co-op in 1977. This intimate six story building houses just 12 apartments configured as duplexes and triplexes, offering townhouse style living with cooperative conveniences including an elevator, live-in superintendent, and butterfly video intercom system accessible via smartphone.

Located on a tree lined block between Madison and Park Avenues, the building sits just one block from Central Park in the heart of the Upper East Side. Residents enjoy proximity to world class museums like the Metropolitan Museum of Art, luxury boutiques along Madison Avenue, and fine dining establishments. The building features a landscaped common rooftop garden and permits pied-à-terre ownership, pets, and foreign purchasers with board approval, along with 65% financing and a 2% flip tax.

The apartments showcase classic prewar details including wood burning fireplaces, soaring ceilings ranging from 11 to 16 feet, and hardwood floors throughout. Many units feature private gardens, with one notable triplex boasting a 19x30 foot landscaped outdoor space. Common amenities across units include through the wall air conditioning, custom built ins, abundant closet storage, marble bathrooms, and oversized south facing windows offering garden and townhouse views. The building maintains remarkably low monthly maintenance costs while providing the elegance of townhouse living.

Sales History

Price/Room (Est)

Why are we displaying the estimated price per room?

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.

By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
