Exclusive | The architect of some of NYC’s most iconic buildings built this rare house – and now is on sale

City House at 51 W. 73rd St. -On some remaining houses of the city of Anne.

Built in 1885 by Henry J. Hardenbergh-Legendary Architect after Dakota, Plaza and Waldorf Astoria, all are the main monuments of Manhattan-This five-storey mansion is filled with high character, beauty and touch.

That is to say, it is a background similar to the other buildings of the architect.

Dakota, built between 1880 and 1884 in the German -style Renaissance, is the oldest building of luxury apartments survived by New York City – and was the first of its kind after the elite made the passage from residential to apartments.

However, she gained international recognition – and infamous – when John Lennon, a former resident and member of the Beatles, was shot out of her entrance in 1980.

(His widow, Yoko Ono, still owns a settlement inside.)

Not far from Dakota, Hardenbergh also designed Plaza, an 18-storey French building inspired by the French Renaissance, which also advances the Central Park. Originally displaying over 800 rooms, it now operates with a mixture of hotel suites and residential buildings after renovations in 2008.

The hotel has been owned by some prominent figures, including the hospitality of Conrad Hilton, Donald Trump and Katara.

He had massive buildings after his name, but Hardenbergh also borrowed his touch on small structures, like this – though very few of them. This settlement contains seven bedrooms, eight bathrooms and one elevator – a luxury in historic cities.

This also marks the first time in more than three decades the house has been available for purchase.

The last house was sold in 1993 for $ 2.2 million, and previously was in the rent market for $ 34,000 a month.

Sitting in a coveted block near the Central Park, the city house is surrounded by cultural monuments such as strawberry fields – a memorial for the late Lennon – and the American Museum of Natural History.

The house boasts a ivy -covered rear garden, a triple rear stretch and glossy intrigued windows.

Open through the large wood door and you are coveted by a spaceus lobby that places the scene for home -growing ceilings, original pocket doors, intricate woodwork and vintage lighting matches.

The salon flower boasts a living room with full width washed in natural light, while the dining area is adapted from the original wood boards. A dramatic scale, the rear coil leads to the kitchen, which opens in a picturesque garden.

On the third floor, the primary private suite offers a dressing room, a bathroom -like bathroom and an interior balcony overlooking the garden.

Fourth and fifth floor house five extra bedrooms, three with indecent baths, along with a bonus space for a home office, a lounge or a lounge.

Meanwhile, the garden level contains a large dining kitchen, a family room or suite in laws, and private access to the backyard. Under this, the basement level offers even more storage space, a gym or a wine basement.

Dexter Guerrieri, Nicole Kats and Emily Barham from Vandenberg – Townhouse experts keep the list.

“Happy owners raised their family at home and it was time for the next chapter,” Kats Post told. She added, “The house is a lot of space … We often work with Townhouse owners at this point, where they just don’t need 7,000 square meters.”
