Property Description for 114 East 65th Street

Exquisitely renovated inside and out, this 20'-wide triple-mint single-family townhouse delivers the extreme rarity of triple exposures with its entire Western side untouched by a neighboring building offering light and openness that is incomparable to other houses.

Built for Gilbert C. Brown between 1899-1900 in the Beaux-Arts style by Buchman & Deisler, this landmarked 5-story home was extensively restored by renowned architect Campion Platt with no detail overlooked. Featuring a gracious floorplan with 5 bedrooms, 5.5 bathrooms, 5 wood-burning fireplaces, 3 gas fireplaces, 2 staff rooms with separate kitchen, and beautifully proportioned rooms with exceptional finishes, and walls of windows that provide abundant natural light throughout the house. Other features include elevator access to all floors, high 9'-11'7 ceilings, wine cellar, multi-zone central air conditioning, full security system with custom lockbox entrance system, integrated Crestron sound system, and electronic window treatments. Truly turn-key and ready for immediate occupancy.

CELLAR

The cellar is comprised of two windowed staff rooms, separate windowed staff kitchen, full bathroom, spacious laundry room with Miele Professional washer and dryer, abundant closet space including two large cedar closets, central hardwired audio/visual room, custom wine cellar, travertine floors throughout and direct elevator access. The home is also equipped with a state-of-the-art Sanitron ultraviolet water purification system.

GARDEN LEVEL

A gracious marble vestibule welcomes you into a fully secured video lockbox system that allows visitors to be allowed into the vestibule without being given full access to the house through the foyer. The vestibule also has a separate service entrance with custom white oak built-ins that leads directly to the kitchen, pantry, and cellar entrance. Upon entry into the foyer, you are greeted by a striking white marble staircase with lucite handrail, white marble floors, and a custom water wall. Additionally, the foyer offers a windowed powder room with travertine vanity, handmade sink made from a single geode, lacquered plaster walls, and bespoke gunmetal framing on the walls and around the window.

At the back of the floor is a large chef's kitchen with Terrazzo floors, custom white lacquer cabinetry, oak center island with one-off glass countertop, polished black granite countertops, ceramic tile backsplash, top-of-the-line appliances including full Miele suite with refrigerator, freezer, 70-bottle wine refrigerator, double dishwasher and coffee maker; full Gaggenau suite, including gas cooktop, grill, vented hood, steam oven, oven, microwave, warming drawer, and three separate plate warming cabinets. There are also three sinks (two with disposals), a butler's pantry with Viking Professional refrigerator and freezer, and endless storage space.

Just past the kitchen is a separate breakfast room with spiral staircase into the office upstairs, dumbwaiter to the dining room, and a double-sided gas fireplace that beautifully connects the garden and breakfast room. The kitchen and breakfast room both feature foldable, bulletproof glass doors that fully open to create a seamless flow into the garden for entertaining.

PARLOR LEVEL

The parlor level with herringbone white oak floors features a gracious formal landing that leads to a bright north-facing living room with exquisite Venetian plaster walls, high gloss lacquer ceiling and crown molding, wood-burning fireplace with handmade fluted white onyx mantle, and floor to ceiling French doors that lead out onto a rare curved balcony with original balustrade. The south-facing dining room features full-height glass and gunmetal doors, Venetian plaster walls, high gloss lacquer ceiling and crown molding, matching handmade fl

Upper East Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.

With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.

Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .

There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
