This Upper East Side limestone mansion is exceptional with much of its magnificent original details lovingly preserved. 18 East 76th is ideally located next door to the chic Surrey Hotel and Central Park between 5th and Madison Avenues, with the legendary Carlyle Hotel around the corner. Originally built in 1881 as a Victorian brownstone, Henry Block purchased it in 1906. He hired architect Henry Hertz to upgrade the house to the Beaux-Arts beauty it is today, the style du jour. Measuring 22’ wide and 100’ deep, The Block House was and remains absolutely ideal for entertaining! This is a unique opportunity to own a truly remarkable property.
