About this home
116 East 61st Street is a beautifully restored single-family townhouse in the heart of Lenox Hill, just off of Park Avenue. Once the residence of an internationally renowned interior designer, this 18.5-foot-wide townhouse spans five stories and approximately 5,750 interior square feet in excellent condition, currently configured as four bedrooms with the flexibility for six. The layout is built for entertaining, blending historic architecture with modern luxury, with grand proportions and seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces across three distinct levels of private outdoor space totaling approximately 1,043 square feet.
A gated entry and elegant white façade open onto the garden level, which centers on a contemporary chef's kitchen with French limestone floors, Venetian plaster walls, a breakfast booth, island seating, and pocket doors that can open the space for entertaining or close it off for intimate dining. Beyond, a gracious dining room with a working fireplace connects through three large French doors to the sun-filled, south-facing rear garden. It is an extraordinary setting for hosting at scale.
The parlour level features a grand living room with soaring twelve-foot ceilings, neoclassical moldings, fireplace, and open views. Across the landing, a sophisticated library offers built-in banquettes, a deluxe wet bar, and a second fireplace.
The entire third floor is devoted to the primary suite with high ceilings, a fireplace, an en-suite marble bathroom with separate tub and shower, and an expansive dressing room. Two sizeable additional bedrooms occupy the fourth floor, each with en-suite baths and picturesque views, for a layout that balances single-family comfort with Park Avenue refinement.
The fifth floor opens onto a private terrace, while the rooftop terrace above delivers sweeping city views, offering two additional venues for outdoor living and entertaining. Below grade, a full-height finished basement includes a gym, laundry room with double washers and dryers, and ample storage.
The home features four working fireplaces and one decorative fireplace on the fourth floor, a custom artisan elevator serving all levels, multi-zone central air conditioning and heating, a Crestron whole-home automation system, and a full security system including closed-circuit television.
116 East 61st Street offers a rare combination of privacy, craftsmanship, and scale in one of Manhattan's most coveted locations.
