Property Description
It has an organic quality thats almost entirely wholly interdependent, if you know what I mean. I cant put it into words. The important thing is, it breathes. Carrie Fisher in Hannah and Her Sisters describing 17 East 65th Street. Constructed by William Hamby and George Nelson for American industrialist, and inventor Sherman Fairchild in 1940, much has been written about 17 East 65th Street over the years, but this extraordinary 25 wide mansion on East 65th Street between Fifth and Madison must be seen to be believed. The ingenious original design split the town home into two sections placed in the front and back of the 100 foot lot, with glass-enclosed connecting ramps and an atrium between. Continuing in the innovative tradition of Mr. Fairchild, the mansion was given new life by the present owners with a complete renovation. The walls dividing the atrium were taken down creating a colossal great room rising up four stories to a spectacular skylight that encompasses almost the entire roof. Presently the home of renowned art dealership French & Company, this masterwork of post-modern ingenuity is perfect for displaying a major art collection. This distinctive property not only affords the owner huge dramatic spaces, but also a sense of tranquility rarely seen in such distinguished homes. In addition to the immense entertaining spaces there are five bedrooms including a fifth floor loft with a soaring vaulted ceiling letting in such incredible light that you will be transported to another time and place.
