Luxury Home Provides Upscale Living in the Upper East Side’s First LEED-Certified Building

Perched on the Upper East Side, 151 E 85th Street 14JK is a blissful retreat from the outside world, bringing together aesthetics, functionality, and timeless style. The 3,601 square foot combo unit sits in The Lucida – the Upper East Side’s first LEED-certified building – offering easy access to upscale shops, gourmet restaurants, and Central Park. This is the only JK unit, creating a uniquely quiet and tranquil space with an extra large primary bath and a primary wing.  “COOK + FOX Architects did a great job with this building by making the units functional, using the double wide streets for extra light and openness, all while having top of the line amenities that luxury home owners want,” said Erin Wheelock, Keller Williams licensed real estate associate broker and the home’s listing agent.

Upon entering through the main door, 151 E 85th Street 14JK is immediately bathed in natural light through floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the surrounding cityscape. The living and dining rooms boast 10-foot ceilings and ample seating space, perfect for entertaining guests or enjoying a peaceful meal. Just adjacent to the left sits a fashionable powder room, while the right side holds a private suite of bathrooms. 

“This unit is one of a kind with open south views in the bedrooms, and radiant light through the day from the north.”
