Designed by the legendary Stanford White, this Italian Renaissance palace is a true work of art - with its arched windows, grand balconies, and stately columns standing proudly over 73rd Street. In the early 1900s, Joseph Pulitzer - a pioneer of American journalism - purchased this land and envisioned a mansion unlike any other. Nearly blind later in life, Pulitzer soundproofed his home to perfection, constructing a sanctuary of peace amidst the city's energy. Innovative for its time, the mansion installed ball bearings beneath the floors to absorb the vibrations of passing carriages. Triple-pane windows and thick, insulated walls ensured absolute peace. Sunlight pours through the expansive windows, illuminating intricate moldings and the original architectural details. The primary suite is a dream with direct access to a sprawling private terrace and a beautiful staircase leading to a third luxurious bathroom. The private terrace overlooks the tree-lined 73rd Street - a rare open-air sanctuary in the heart of the Upper East Side. Perfect for entertaining, the open living and dining areas flow seamlessly into a fully updated kitchen - complete with top-of-the-line appliances and bespoke cabinetry. Upstairs, the second bedroom offers endless flexibility - ideal for guests, a private study, or a personal library. This is more than a home - it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of New York City's storied history, reimagined for modern living. Read Less
