Built in 1888, this 23 wide neo-Renaissance masterpiece was designed by renowned architect-developer, Charles Graham and originally purchased by the cigar magnate, Charles P. Lies, as a wedding present for his daughter, Mattie. The 80th Street block between Fifth and Madison still features some of Manhattan s most beautiful houses, built for the Woolworth, Bloomingdale, and several banking families. Many of the magnificent, original beaux-arts details remain at number 26. The substantial stoop, original to the house, leads in to the parlor floor. The entry foyer is accented beautifully by the unchanged, cascading Charles Graham staircase for which he is famous. The 58-foot living room and dining room, scaled for entertaining with 12 foot ceilings and pocket doors, have wood-burning fireplaces and original carved mantels. There is also a butler s pantry on this floor. The many sound-proof north-facing windows look out onto tree-lined 80th Street, and also up Madison Avenue, a unique feature for any townhouse. This prime block is quiet but close to leading private and public schools, museums, shops, and a the park. The ground floor, eat-in kitchen flows into a casual dining room and outdoor patio. Beyond the kitchen is a separate studio with en-suite bathroom, for guests or staff, overlooking the rear courtyard. This ground floor with vestibule and powder room has direct access to both the rear patio and the planted forecourt. On the third floor, a gracious sitting room spans the full 23 of the house and features window seats, a bay window, and a wood-burning fireplace. There is also a master bedroom with full bath en-suite. Five light-filled bedrooms and four baths occupy the fourth and fifth floors, as well as a media room and two paneled studies, providing ample space for multiple uses. There is access from the sixth floor to a landscaped and irrigated roof garden with open views. The basement level is equipped with a gym, laundry, and wine cellar. Recently renovated, the house has zoned a/c, wired internet, video security, seven wood-burning fireplaces, parquet floors, and an elevator is being installed. All plans have been approved by the Department of Buildings and necessary permits have been obtained. The building is currently zoned as commercial and residential. This listing is a co-exclusive.
