Description
170 East 80th Street is a sprawling 22-foot wide Eco friendly, LEED certified mixed use property designed and masterfully constructed by world famous architect, Toshiko Mori. It is situated on the south side of 80th Street between Lexington and Third Avenues, within close proximity to Central Park, in the heart of the Upper East Side, but outside of the Historic District. The property, originally constructed at the turn of the century as a carriage house and once used by historic fabric artists D.D. and Leslie Tillett, is set behind majestic wrought iron carriage house doors, and is configured as a two unit property; a magnificent and tranquil ground level gallery space with its own separate entrance, and a separately accessed 6-bedroom, 6.5-bathroom private residence which is designed in such a way as to let in an abundance of natural light and air throughout. This roughly 11,000 sq. ft. one of a kind property utilizes environmentally sustainable materials and green architectural elements in its construction and includes a high end security system, a Mitsubishi environmental control system on multiple zones, and a Creston lighting system. The five-story residence, accessible via a private entrance and an elevator servicing all floors, unfolds as follows: The main floor, elevated by one flight of stairs, encompasses a vast floor-through space, housing a front living room, central kitchen, rear dining room, powder room, and wet bar. The dining room offers a captivating view of the waterfall below, while the kitchen boasts top-tier finishes and appliances. The third level hosts an expansive front living area, a rear bedroom with an ensuite bath, and a 400 sq ft private terrace. The fourth level features two sizable bedrooms, each with ensuite baths and generous closet space. The fifth level introduces two additional bedrooms with their own baths and striking pitched glass windows, flooding the space with abundant natural light. This level culminates in a private rooftop garden accessible via a staircase. A stand out feature of this magnificent property includes a 71' foot long gallery on the first floor that leads back to a stunning two-story 22' x 33' foot marble-faced waterfall surrounded by a sculpture garden and tranquility pool. The ground level is built full to 102' deep and utilizes every square foot of space to create a unique and serene aesthetic. The lower level unveils a fully finished, 2,300 sq. ft. basement with windows and 8-foot ceilings. This versatile space includes a 1,000-bottle wine cellar, a Finland cedar sauna, a full bathroom, and limitless potential for a home gym, media room, or den. Mixed-use zoning opens the door to a multitude of residential and commercial possibilities. Delivered vacant.
