A 25 -legged gilded era house set outside the famous Riverside Drive is demanding $ 29.75 million, marking a key chance to own a rare property.
The seven-storey house with its bent limestone facade, fraar iron details, French doors and large terraces-is difficult to lose. Its ranking, first reported by Global Management, is held by Lydia Sussek and Douglas Elliman.
House last sold in the late 1990s, and unintentionally aimed at a sale in 2013 for a much higher $ 50 million.
The 11,500 -square -foot settlement includes seven bedrooms and 14 bathrooms, reported Global Mansion, overlooking the Hudson River and the Riverside Park in the west.
In addition to an excess of outdoor space, its appliances include seven fireplaces, a wine basement, a library, a cinema and a gym.
The distinctive townhouse is presented in photosessions and television shows such as “Law & Order”, “Good Woman” and “Madame Secretary”, according to Global Mansion.
The Beaux Art style flat was built between 1900 and 1901 by developer Joseph A. Farley with architects Janes & Leo. Russian exiled Prince Sergei Belosselsky-Belarozersky bought the property in the 1940s and turned it into a non-profit headquarters for Russian immigrants. The 50-year-old AIDS association’s mandate there won 349 W. 86th St. Nickname “House of Free Russia”.
Randall Rackson, the founder of the derivative business for the AIG insurance giant, bought the house in 1999 on the heel of a large dispute between the Russian Assistance Association and its neighbors. Randall went on early retirement in the 90s, before AIG played an important role in the beginning of the great recession in the next decade.
Rackson told Global Mansion that the roof had disappeared when he gripped his house in 1999, with rats and pigeons already in the settlement. Rackson paid $ 1.4 million, according to Stueasy. He then decided to restore the facade and the inner in their glory of the gilded era.
“It is not livable, it’s not like a museum,” Rackson The Outlet told.
Rackson cannot be reached for comment.
