248 West 71st Street, Townhouse

Meticulously reimagined and crafted, this extraordinary 7,110 square foot 6-bedroom, 7-bathroom (plus two power rooms) townhouse on six levels has a handcrafted curved staircase. It has just been listed by Brown Harris Stevens associate broker Paula Del Nunzio for $26M.

248 West 71 Street is a block and a half from Central Park to the East and a block and a half to Riverside Park and the Hudson River to the West. The home includes front and back gardens, gas and woodburning fireplaces, en-suite bedrooms, private terraces, an elevator, handcrafted curved staircase, and custom fixtures and finishes.


160 Central Park South, Apartment 3011

The home is on the 30th floor of the iconic Essex House, a Midtown hotel with all the trappings and amenities you could ever want. At just under 800 square feet, there’s plenty of space for living. But most owners may simply want to stare out the south-facing windows — of which there are many — at Midtown all day!

Cecilia Serrano of Coldwell Banker Warburg says the home is well-lit and surprisingly expansive, with defined areas for dining, working, and relaxing. The bedroom at the west end of the unit has an en-suite bathroom and a large closet. The living room and dining area are adjacent, with the kitchen at the east end of the home. Owners enter through a large foyer, complete with two closets — one of them a walk-in.

As noted, the apartment is in the Essex House, which features a spa open 24 hours per day, door and bell service, and concierge services. Hotel services are also optional for owners. Cecilia Serrano of Coldwell Banker Warburg is the listing broker.


182 Franklin Street

Constructed in 1915, 182 Franklin was acquired by Mr. Despont approximately 25 years ago and was converted into this stunning 10,000 square foot single family home. 

Entering off of Tribeca's picturesque Franklin Street, the inviting foyer leads you to a staircase and elevator connecting all the floors. The rear of the first floor is currently set up as an artist's studio, but would ideally make a wonderful children's playroom, media room, solarium, swimming pool, etc. The primary suite occupies the entire third floor complete with tremendous marble bath, dressing room, sauna, and enormous closet space

Three very private and special bedrooms suites are scattered throughout complete with their own kitchenette and full baths. The grand dining room easily converts to a spectacular billiards room which shares the fourth floor with the chef's eat-in-kitchen.

The crown jewel of this home is the penthouse great room on the fifth floor. This room spans the entire footprint of the building and boasts 15 ceilings. You will feel like you are transported back into the Paris in the 1930s or Casa Cipriani. Additionally, there are two wine cellars, basement with laundry room, three gas fireplaces, air rights to build another floor (6TH floor), central HVAC and much more.

Douglas Elliman’s Rueben Schatz, Alexander Boriskin, Cameron Begg and Michael Lorber have the listing.
