MUST SEE – 171 East 73rd Street sits as a renowned and renovated 20’ wide townhome on Manhattan’s famous Upper East Side, and just a short distance to Central Park and Fifth Avenue. Built in 1860, this six floor home, with two roof terraces, a backyard, and a front terrace insists on a standard of luxurious living. The beautifully maintained façade is historically landmarked, and stands out among the block’s other historical carriage homes.

The home has a live-in staff or extended family apartment with access across each floor through the elevator, which connects all levels. It is only quickly shadowed by the home’s grand staircase, featuring a one of a kind five floor chandelier that will not be left unnoticed.

Smart and modern technological engineering connects you in contemporary ways, and includes heated sidewalks for those blustery winter days.

Manhattan architectural firm Baxt Ingui’s dream became reality in this townhome. Designer Birgit Klein imagined the interior as elegant and appealing.

This unique home has 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms and 2 powder rooms, and entertaining areas aplenty:

Entering under the home’s main staircase, the ground floor features an apartment leading to the open and expansive chef’s kitchen where nothing has been overlooked. The natural flow brings you to the comfortable living room, including a wood burning fireplaces and double height ceilings, and then beyond into the townhome’s large and private backyard garden. It’s functional for the day to day as well as the occasional party.

The second floor promotes lofty ceilings show off the formal dining area and proceed to the formal living room with a gas burning fireplace, surveying the expansive back wall-of-windows and backyard below.

The primary bedroom sits across half of the third level, with views of the garden, and includes multiple closet spaces and a deep soaking tub for those end of day baths. This floor also has a second bedroom that overlooks the sunny street, and can be utilized as a library or office.

Two more bedrooms sit on the fourth floor, separated only by the large laundry room with double washer and dryers.

The crowing jewel of the home is the fifth floor, which includes both a north and south facing roof terrace, and can be used for entertaining or as a bedroom.

A bonus cellar was fully refinished with the remodel, and includes an expansive space over the footprint of the townhouse. The area has a separate gym or conference room, home theater, wine cellar, and access to the home’s backyard.
