Paying $12 million to live inside a historic Upper East Side townhouse doesn't sound so bad... until you realize it's just for a single unit.
But hey, this isn't your typical Manhattan co-op.
The third floor apartment at 11 East 73rd Street is located inside the sprawling Gilded Age mansion once owned by publishing magnate Joseph Pulitzer - you know, the guy whose name has gone on to inspire the Pulitzer Prize?
Built in 1903 by legendary architect Stanford White, the five-story, 79-foot-wide limestone building was inspired by Venetian baroque architecture, embracing the lavish arched windows, high ceilings, and balustraded balconies of Italian palazzos.
Now separated into multiple co-ops, the home's third-floor apartment (the only full-floor unit on the property) is currently in contract for that aforementioned $12 mil. It does, however, boast three bedrooms, marble wood-burning fireplaces, 15-foot ceilings, and plenty of dramatic architectural details. It even comes with its own, very dreamy, outdoor terrace.
