A Landmark Limestone Mansion of Singular Architectural Consequence
Updated
Commissioned in 1898 and masterfully designed by C.P.H. Gilbert in his signature François Premier style, 4 East 79th Street stands as one of Manhattan's most architecturally distinguished private residences. Spanning more than 15,000 square feet across a 35-foot-wide limestone facade, this landmark Upper East Side mansion has been completely rebuilt to an exacting 2025 standard — its historical integrity preserved with scholarly precision, its systems and appointments entirely new. With exposures on three sides, Central Park views, soaring ceilings, and reception rooms of breathtaking scale, this is a home without peer in today's market.
