Summary

  • The Bubble House in Lenox Hill, NYC, is listed at $5.75 million USD, first time in 50 years
  • Designed by Maurice Medcalfe, it features 12 oval windows and a Space-Age stucco façade

The Bubble House, a rare architectural gem on the Upper East Side, is officially on the market for the first time in over five decades.

Originally a 19th-century brownstone, the residence was radically reimagined in 1969 by architect Maurice Medcalfe of Hills & Medcalfe. His renovation introduced a smooth stucco façade punctuated by twelve convex oval windows — a sculptural reinterpretation of the bay window that earned the home its nickname. These distinctive apertures remain its most iconic feature, flooding the interiors with natural light and lending the building a distinctly Space Age character.

Located on a quiet, tree-lined block in Lenox Hill, the Bubble House stands in stark contrast to its traditional neighbors. Its presence among brick and limestone townhouses is a deliberate interruption — one that has intrigued passersby for decades. Spanning approximately 4,736 square feet across four stories and a basement, the home retains its mid-century layout with four bedrooms, five bathrooms and a garden-level office. While the interiors are modest compared to the façade, they feature recessed lighting, streamlined mantels and white carpeting — elements that reflect the era of its transformation.

Listed at $5.75 million USD through Leslie Garfield, the Bubble House enters the market for the first time in five decades. Take a look around the property in the gallery above and head over to the realtor’s website for more information.
