3 E 84th St APT 3, New York, NY 10028

Graced with grandly proportioned rooms and enchanting treetop views, this extraordinary full-floor ten-into-eight room residence offers three large bedrooms plus a staff suite, four full bathrooms, and a powder room. Designed in 1928 by Raymond Hood and John M. Howells—the celebrated visionaries behind Rockefeller Center and the Daily News Building—the building was commissioned by Joseph Medill Patterson, publisher of The News, and remains a jewel of New York’s Art Deco heritage. With only eleven residences, it provides a lifestyle of rare privacy and prestige. From the moment the private elevator doors open into the gracious entry gallery, the apartment reveals itself as a home of timeless elegance. Every detail has been carefully curated to balance the sophistication of prewar architecture with the comforts and conveniences of today. State-of-the-art systems further enhance daily living, including a six-zone HVAC system with Daikin thermostats and a Crestron system that manages audio-visual features, lighting, and electric shades in the primary suite—all seamlessly integrated for ease and comfort. The grand living and dining rooms, each framed by French doors that open to Juliet balconies, invite both large-scale entertaining and intimate gatherings. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, evoking warmth and tradition, while the adjacent library transforms into a state-of-the-art screening room with a discreet drop-down screen, Epson high-definition projector, and Bowers & Wilkins surround sound—an effortless blend of old-world refinement and contemporary sophistication. The library also features a beautifully appointed bar ideal for entertaining. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen is a statement of both design and function. Outfitted with custom SieMatic cabinetry, Calacatta marble countertops, a center island that seats five, and Miele appliances, it is a space that inspires culinary creativity. A separate laundry area with Bosch washer and dryer adds seamless practicality to the daily rhythm of the home. The private quarters are a sanctuary unto themselves. The primary suite is expansive and serene, featuring two custom-fitted closets and a windowed en-suite bathroom designed as a true retreat, complete with radiant heated floors, a steam shower, deep soaking tub, double sinks, and a separate windowed water closet. Two additional spacious bedrooms, each with their own en-suite windowed bath, provide comfort and privacy for family or guests. A staff bedroom and bathroom add flexibility to suit a variety of needs. The building itself is steeped in history and architectural grandeur. It offers a discreet and exclusive setting just off Fifth Avenue and Central Park, enhanced by attentive service including a doorman on duty from eight in the morning until midnight and a live-in resident manager. Additional amenities include private storage and bicycle storage. A two percent flip tax is payable by the purchaser and the building allows up to 50% financing.
