174 East 73rd street presents an extraordinary opportunity to own a rare, three story carriage house located on the landmarked block of East 73rd Street between Lexington and Third Avenues. This block, which has been noted by the New York Times as one of the most distinctive in New York, is replete with low rise carriage houses which were originally used by the most wealthy residents of the Upper East Side. Today, these prized houses are highly sought after for their unique build and fascinating history. Built in 1889 to architectural designs by Frank Wennemer, 174 boasts an attractive Romanesque Revival style brick faade with a rock-faced limestone base, embellished with Neo-Grec details. The elegance of the faade is enhanced by an arched, grand center entrance, as well as an additional pedestrian side entrance. The building's interior layout is spacious and features impressive ceiling heights. These architectural details, the building's rich history and additional air rights make 174 an excellent house for a purchaser looking to create an original single family home. Currently configured as ground floor offices and an upper residential duplex.
