About this home
<p>PREVIOUS HOME OF GUCCI FAMILY, CALVIN KLEIN AND ITALIAN AMBASSADOR TO THE UN.</p> <p>Constructed in the twilight of the Gilded Age, 16 East 76th Street is a handsome 1902 brick and limestone neo-Georgian townhouse designed by renowned architects Hoppin & Koen for prominent lawyer Moncure Robinson. More recently this home was renovated and occupied by fashion mogul, Calvin Klein, who sold it to the Republic of Italy to be the residence for their Ambassador to the UN. Mr. Klein purchased this home from the Gucci family. The townhouse occupies one of the most coveted locations in the city, just off Central Park, within one block of the Carlyle and Mark Hotels and close to world-class restaurants, shopping and museums. Casa Tua, an exclusive private social club, just opened in the recently refurbished Surrey Hotel two doors away. The Children's Gate entrance to Central Park, conveniently located near a new playground, Alice in Wonderland statue and toy boat pond, is entered at 76th Street and Fifth Avenue. This is one of the finest townhouse blocks off Fifth Avenue with 12 of the 15 houses on the block (80%) being single unit, 4 times the average. This property provides the only opportunity to purchase a 10,000 square foot townhouse between Fifth and Madison Avenues for less than $24,000,000. Suggested plans and construction estimates at end of photos provided by Drew Lang, Founding Principal of Lang Architecture.</p> <p>The house has a large footprint, built nearly full on a 102" lot with 16 rooms, including 6 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, 2 powder rooms and elevator serving six levels in 10,258 square feet, including the 1,693 square foot basement. Impressive features include an exquisite brick and limestone neo-Georgian facade, a grand entrance hall and staircase, a magnificent parlor floor with elegant living room and formal dining room seating 16 for diplomatic dinners, 8 fireplaces, soaring ceilings and brilliant sunlight.</p> <p>Enter the ground floor through a planted forecourt and two sets of cast iron and glass doors into a grand entrance hall with marble fireplace leading to an elegant staircase. Adjacent to the entrance hall are closets, a powder room and an elevator serving all 6 levels of the house. There is also a service entrance from the street leading to a kitchen, pantry, office and garden at the back of the house.</p> <p>The parlor floor has 13" ceilings and consists of a large living room, grand stair hall and formal dining room. The living room features French doors opening onto a wrought iron balcony and a marble fireplace. The dining room features a bay window overlooking the garden and a marble fireplace.
