About This Property

As featured in The Wall Street Journal, welcome to Lena Horne's former residence!

This Hollywood-glam 1 Bed/1 Bath CORNER unit is steeped in New York history and is on one of the most coveted CENTRAL PARK blocks on the UES in a Full-Service Prewar building, The Volney!

From its private entrance hall to its striking quietness the moment you step inside, this apartment is the ultimate in privacy and serenity.

The expansive living room gets fabulous light with two exposures and has a nook that can be used as office space or to possibly expand the kitchen. The oversized bedroom can accommodate a king bed with room to spare as well as a luxurious seating area. This apartment also has two large walk-in closets as well as extensive shelving. Although it needs some TLC, this apartment has maintained its classic Pre War charm and joyous essence of its legendary former resident.

This home could be your perfect pied a terre or full-time private oasis.

The Volney is a Hollywood pedigreed co-op building just half block from Central Park along with the best shopping and restaurants on the UES. Amenities include a full-time doorman and rooftop terrace. Pets are welcome!

Maximum financing is 65% and tax deductibility is 57%

Practically perfect pre-war, park-block pad, welcoming to pied-a-terres. 23 East 74th St. #5G was exquisitely renovated and almost untouched since completion. Formerly owned by legendary entertainer and activist Lena Horne and used as her office, it was sold in 2018 and the current owner has renovated this to perfection for your enjoyment. No expense was spared in this meticulously renovated, triple MINT condition, 1 bedroom, 1 bath home. A gracious foyer welcomes you into this pin-drop…
