Unique opportunity to combine 50 East 81st Street and 52 East 81st Street and create a 40-foot wide mansion in one of the most desirable residential neighborhoods on the Upper Eastside.With approximately 13,141 square feet of living space, these existing townhouses lend themselves to a multitude of possibilities, including an upgrade and restoration for use as a magnificent single-family home, creation of an owner's duplex or triplex while positioning other units for lease, or for the use by an institution. With additional FAR and the absence of a landmark designation, the potential to upgrade or redevelop is practically limitless.

Wonderfully located on the south side of picturesque and tree-lined 81st Street, the buildings sit mid-block between Madison and Park Avenues. Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum of Art are around the corner, putting these properties squarely amidst the best culture, recreation, dining, and retail offered anywhere in Manhattan.
