Canterbury Mews consists of two buildings sharing a courtyard, with historical significance. The cooperative offers various apartment options and flexible policies for buyers and residents.
Canterbury Mews is a cooperative consisting of two buildings that share a serene courtyard, located at 229 East 81st Street and 229 1/2 East 81st Street. The front building is a four-floor walk-up constructed in the early 20th century, featuring eight apartments, while the back building is a charming three-story mid-19th-century clapboard house with three apartments. The co-op welcomes various purchasing arrangements, including guarantors and pied-Ă -terres, and allows sublets after two years, making it an attractive option for both residents and investors.
Residences within Canterbury Mews boast unique architectural details, such as high ceilings, exposed brick walls, and hardwood floors. Many apartments feature modern amenities like updated kitchens with stainless steel appliances, including dishwashers, and renovated bathrooms. The apartments are designed to maximize natural light, with south-facing windows and skylights in some units, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere.
Located in a prime Upper East Side neighborhood, residents enjoy proximity to a variety of restaurants, shops, and public transportation options, including the Q and 4, 5, 6 subway lines. The building's private garden backyard offers a peaceful retreat from the bustling city, enhancing the overall living experience. Notably, the co-op allows cats but has a no-dog policy, catering to pet owners who prefer a quieter environment.
Canterbury Mews is not only a residential haven but also a historical site, making it a unique choice for those seeking a blend of charm and modern convenience in Manhattan. The quick application process and flexible financing options further add to its appeal for potential buyers.

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.
