3-bedroom house for sale in Murray Hill-Kips Bay

The dream townhouse awaiting your exact specifications has finally arrived. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places and set along one of Murray Hill's most distinguished tree-lined blocks, this six-level Italianate townhouse occupies a coveted position between Park and Lexington Avenues. Built in 1856, 115 East 35th is a residence shaped by its storied history with notable ownership preparing it for its next remarkable chapter. Spanning approximately 4,250 square feet, including a full-height cellar, the home retains the grand proportions of its era: ceilings reaching approximately 14 feet, dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, Juliet balconies, and a prized southern exposure that bathes the interiors in natural light. With DOB-approved plans and demolition complete, the residence offers something exceedingly rare in Manhattan: the freedom to create an exceptional home from a historic canvas. Framing is already in place for a private elevator surrounded by a sweeping spiral staircase, while structural steel has been installed for a planned rooftop pool. High above the city, the vision culminates in a private oasis framed by views of the Empire State Building and Midtown skyline. The historic facade remains distinguished by an arched entry with French doors, two-over-two sash windows, and original wrought-iron detailing. The rear garden has been excavated to further maximize the property's potential from cellar to rooftop. Zoned for single- or two-family use, the property lends itself equally to a grand six-level private residence or an inspired two-family configuration. 115 East 35th Street is an invitation to create a legacy-an intensely personal residence conceived without compromise, within the walls of New York history.
