Property Description for 130 East 71st Street

This mint 5-bedroom single-family townhouse is located in a prime location on one of the most beautiful blocks on the Upper East Side, off of Park Avenue. Recently renovated to the highest standard, this residence has a flexible layout, soaring ceilings, gorgeous finishes and exquisite materials throughout, including brass-inlaid radiant oak floors. Modern conveniences have been added including a walnut-finished elevator servicing all 6-stories, 11-zone central air conditioning, a Lutron lighting system, music system, video intercoms, and security system. The townhouse has two entrances, one at the Garden Level and another up the stoop leading to the Parlor floor.

Garden floor: This level has a handsome Arclinea Italian-custom designed kitchen with appliances by Gaggenau, Wolf, Miele & Sub-Zero, a large pantry & integrated storage. Stylish stainless steel & marble finishes enhance the design. Just beyond is the dining room, which enjoys a dramatic double-height 16' high glass atrium and opens into the marble-paved, landscaped and irrigated south-facing garden with an IPE bench. Also on this floor is the family room with access to the garden entrance and a full bathroom.

Parlor Floor: Upon entering this level there is a striking sculptural staircase enhanced by the skylight above. Just beyond the staircase is the living room, which is bathed in southern light by the 16' high atrium and the room is further enhanced by a fireplace with an Antolini Brown marble surround. A charming library, powder room and walk-in closet complete this level.

Third Floor: A grand master suite occupies the entire third floor. The sundrenched bedroom faces south and opens onto a private terrace protected by a trellis. There is a sleek fireplace in the bedroom creating a warm inviting space. There is a luxurious white statuary marble bathroom replete with a soaking tub, rain shower, and dual-sink vanity. A walk-in closet and four additional closets complete this level.

Fourth & Fifth Floors: Each of these floors have two bedrooms. The south facing bedrooms on both floors each have en-suite full marble bathrooms with a bathtub/shower. The south facing bedrooms enjoy views of townhouse gardens and blue skies from the three windows. The north facing bedrooms on both floors each have en-suite full marble bathrooms with stall showers. The north facing bedrooms have picturesque city views over the tree lined East 71st Street.

Sixth Floor: The crowning jewel of this residence is the roof terrace. Carefully constructed to be protected from the wind, but also capture the open city views, the terrace has a spacious sundeck, hot tub, outdoor rain shower and wet-bar.

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.
