This beautiful townhouse, located on Manhattan s Upper East Side, long one of New York s premier neighborhoods, is steps away from museums, elegant stores, five-star restaurants, and the city s best private schools. Built in 1882 in Queen Anne style by the world-famous architect Anson Squires of Squires & Woolley, this five-story building on 79th Street between Park and Madison Avenues is close to Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the best shopping in the world. This 19-foot-wide townhouse offers the discerning buyer a range of opportunities, either as a magnificent one-family home, a rental property with a substantial owner s unit, or a condo with five or six individual units. The building has 6,500 interior square feet (not including the cellar level) and based on an architect s study enough remaining FARs to add approximately 2,500 more square feet. A zoning analysis is available upon request. The property consists of 6 residential apartments in addition to 3 professional offices. Most of the units have 3- to 4-month vacate clauses. The building can either be delivered vacant or with tenants.With high ceilings and abundant character, the building exudes old-world charm. A unique attribute of the building is that each floor has its own private outdoor space: the entry-level floor has a garden; the second, third and fourth floors have terraces; and the fifth floor has a roof deck. Outdoor space commands a premium in New York City, and this building has it in spades.East 79th Street is a beautiful block with embassies, consulates, the Society Library and even an ex-Mayor in residence. We would be pleased to offer you a tour of 68 E. 79th Street at your convenience.
