Description
Incredible Opportunity to imagine and design your dream home. A blank canvas on a beautiful Upper East Side townhouse street. Magnificent 25 foot wide, five-story red brick & limestone townhouse with approximately 12,500 square feet of interior space. This iconic property is delivered vacant having undergone a two year structural renovation with all of the interior walls removed, and the demolition portion of construction completed. A full set of Landmarks-approved architectural and design plans by JG Neukomm Architects have been completed. Here is the potential to create a stately mansion which would include a rear garden, a large roof deck and a professional-grade elevator that connects all 7 levels, including the basement and the roof terrace. Uniquely situated with three exposures that create a light filled home including a large basement with nearly 20 foot ceilings, perfect for a swimming pool, basketball, or squash court. Ceiling heights on other floors range from 10'8" to 15'9". This is the perfect property for a buyer looking for a home fully customized to their taste where the heavy lifting has been done for them. DOB & LPC approved plans can also be provided upon request.Originally built in 1913 - 14, the Mrs. J. William Clark House was designed by the firm of Trowbridge & Livingston, architects responsible for such landmark structures as the B. Altman & Co. Building and the New York Stock Exchange. The building is part of an outstanding group of Federal Revival red-brick town houses known as the "Pyne-Davison Blockfront" which extends along Park Avenue and between 68th & 69th Streets.

About Upper East Side
View All Upper East Side ListingsThe Upper East Side remains the gold standard for classic New York elegance. Known for 'Museum Mile' and its low-traffic, tree-lined streets, the neighborhood offers a refined lifestyle away from the midtown bustle. While famous for its historic cooperatives, the area has seen a recent surge in ultra-luxury new construction condos, particularly along the Second Avenue Subway corridor, making it a top choice for both traditionalists and modern buyers.
