    Within 249 East 61st Street lies a piece of history... Once owned by the legendary Frank Sinatra himself during his marriage to actress Mia Farrow from 1963 to 1969. This 4-story single-family townhouse boasts 10 rooms, including 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, spanning a generous 3,730 square feet with an additional 933 square feet lower level. Held within the family since Sinatra's tenure, this distinguished townhouse presents a rare opportunity for restoration and renewal in the Treadwell Farm Historic District. Originally constructed in 1872 and later modified in 1919 by the renowned architect Frederick Sterner, this residence epitomizes timeless elegance and architectural distinction. Nestled within the heart of Manhattan's Upper East Side, the Treadwell Farm Historic District stands as a testament to the timeless elegance and rich heritage of New York City. Comprising a collection of meticulously preserved brownstones, townhouses, and mansions, this prestigious district exudes an aura of refined charm and architectural significance. The home enjoys proximity to the area's impressive array of cultural pursuits. Madison Avenue's exclusive stores, galleries, and haute couture boutiques are nearby.
