This very rare 8500 (approx. interior plus exterior)-square-foot townhouse on an historic and charming Upper East Side street presents a unique and outstanding opportunity for an investor, developer or primary resident. Currently comprised of 4 separate apartments including a grand parlor and garden triplex, the exceptional 20'-wide brownstone is an excellent income generator as is, or can be turned into a magnificent single-family home with a basement and private outdoor space in one of Manhattan's most coveted locales. Nestled between Lexington and Third Avenues on landmarked East 73rd Street, this 1860-built brick row house upholds the architectural integrity of its era, and is one of just two remaining Italianate-style homes on the block. The building began as a simple townhouse, but in 1896 was converted into a dual residence and blacksmith's shop that served the neighboring carriage houses and stables. Architect Francis Livingston Pell of the renowned firm Pell & Corbett bought and lived in the home in the early 1920s.Many restoration and modernization possibilities exist for the generously-sized interior, as does a myriad of floorplan configurations designed fit your style and needs.
