About This Property
40 West 74th Street is an architectural masterpiece! This palatial
25-foot wide Neo-Georgian limestone and brick mansion was
originally designed by Percy Griffin in 1906. On this historical
block, 18 Neo-Georgian townhouses were built at the turn of the
century by the Clark family, who also built the Dakota. Drenched in
sunlight, the mansion is currently configured as a two-family home
and boasts timeless elegance with an abundance of original prewar
architectural details. The interior features six stories plus a
windowed finished basement which total just over 11,000 square
feet. The exterior spaces total 1,349 square feet and include a
south-facing garden, a large dining terrace off the kitchen, and on
the 6th floor a roof garden and south-facing terrace. There are
five bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and four powder rooms. The
elegant entertaining rooms all have grand-scale and include a
salon, three living rooms one of which is a corner, two formal
dining rooms, a parlor, an eat-in kitchen with a windowed breakfast
room, a second kitchen, a library, a media room, an entertainment
room, a windowed home gym, and a laundry room. The home seamlessly
integrates a historical restoration with all the modern
conveniences and technology of today. There is an elevator,
seven-zone central air conditioning as well as through-the-wall air
conditioning, and an automatic watering and lighting system for the
outdoor spaces. Throughout the residence, there are ceilings up to
13-feet, original restored moldings, custom millwork, and new
windows..
