Property Description for 107 East 73rd Street

Rare Townhouse Opportunity
Located Moments From Park Avenue
21 ft X 102.17 ft Lot

Completed in 1882 as a part of a pair of sister townhouses by the architectural firm of Thom & Wilson, the facade for 107 East 73rd Street was redesigned in the neo-Georgian style in 1903 by prolific gilded age society architect Grosvenor Atterbury.

This grand single-family mansion is built 21 ft by 86 ft on a 102 ft deep lot, including a rear private garden, along the north side of East 73rd Street right off Park Avenue. Built at the turn of the century, this residence spans over 10,800 sqft across six levels with 1,150 sqft of private outdoor space with a total of seven levels with seven bedrooms, six baths, two staff rooms, three powder rooms, and an ample-sized elevator that connects each group of interior space.

Making an elegant first impression, 107 East 73rd Street welcomes you with a great set of marble steps and stately double doors that lead into a mosaic-tiled vestibule with an additional set of double doors that open to a beautiful reception gallery that perfectly frames a sweeping, elegant formal staircase finished in marble with a beautiful brass and wrought iron banister. Magnificent architectural details include a custom fireplace with a limestone mantle, hand-finished plaster moldings, architectural columns, tiled marble floors, an ample coat closet, and a powder room.

This level retains much of the original layout and splendor as envisioned by Grosvenor Atterbury, with a gracious and large dining room centered by a beautiful fireplace, inlaid herringbone floors, and complemented with sliding doors that overlook the garden level. A separate butler's pantry and linen closet service this space.

The beautiful marble staircase leads towards a stately second level, featuring a south-facing living room with floor-to-ceiling French doors and a Juliet balcony that spans the width of the residence with a beautiful fireplace and Parquet de Versailles hardwood floors with a Greek-key surround. This level is complemented by a full-sized bar and elegant powder room with an illuminated Lalique crystal wash basin. An exquisite library perfectly completes this level with exceptional custom millwork, a marble fireplace, and a north-facing balcony.

The third level is solely dedicated to the primary bedroom suite. This level has a magnificent south-facing sleeping area with a large sitting area, floor-to-ceiling French doors, and a Juliet balcony. The bedroom is followed by a private dressing hall, two en-suite baths, and an expansive walk-in closet with a dressing area. The primary en-suite bath features a walk-in shower, soaking tub/jacuzzi, double-length vanity, dressing/sitting area, and additional storage.

Levels four through five are dedicated to sleeping quarters. The fourth level features two generously sized bedrooms facing south and north; it is possible to convert the separate office into an additional third bedroom and bath. The fifth-floor level features a similar configuration that would allow the creation of three full en-suite bedrooms per floor.

The rooftop terrace has open views of the surrounding townhouses and the stately architecture of Park Avenue, with ample space for entertaining.The English garden level has direct below-the-stoop access from the street, ideal for deliveries and packages with an enclosed vestibule; this level is home to a sizeable south-facing den with a modern fireplace and generous ceiling heights perfect for casual entertaining.

A hall follows this space with built-in storage for glassware and China and an opposite-facing separate laundry and ironing room with an additional powder room. This hall leads to a grand scaled chef's kitchen with commercial-grade appliances, an impressive center marble island, double-height breakfast room atrium leading to a beautifully designed zen-like garden with Ipe wood surround and lush plantings.

The cellar is home to an impressive home theater with space for 12, custom millwork, and fabric-lined walls; a wine cellar perfectly complements this stately residence.

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.
