Nestled in the heart of the Upper East Side, this newly renovated townhouse has undergone significant cosmetic upgrades, formerly designed by renowned interior designer Bunny Williams and Architectural Digest's Harry Schnapper, embodies timeless elegance and sophisticated living while maintaining the charm of its history. Once a renowned art gallery and a former long term single family house.
The home boasts exquisite craftsmanship, featuring custom woodwork, Stark Carpet, and antique P.E. Guerin hardware throughout. Enter on the garden level through a grand gallery adorned with intricate mosaic hardwood floors, leading to a bright and airy solarium. Floor-to-ceiling windows capture the natural light and open onto a beautifully landscaped 35-foot garden complete with a tranquil fountain and koi pond, offering an idyllic urban oasis.
On the second floor, the formal dining room showcases luxurious Gracie Studio wall coverings, paired with a stately fireplace framed by a grand marble mantle-perfect for intimate gatherings. The primary suite, a serene full floor retreat, includes a private sitting room, a cozy fireplace, and an indulgent ensuite bathroom designed for relaxation.
This elegant five story + cellar residence including elevator is near Madison Avenue's world-class shopping and galleries, Central Park, and iconic cultural institutions such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Frick Collection. A truly rare offering in one of Manhattan's most coveted neighborhoods with parking and no standing frontage.
