NYC Townhouse Up For Sale at $114 Million

NYT reports:

An Upper East Side mansion whose stark limestone facade is a foil for six levels of elaborate interiors that take their cues from disparate locales like the Palace of Versailles, the historic castles and churches of Italy, and a red velvet movie theater that once thrived in Queens, is poised to enter the market at a genre-popping asking price of $114.077 million.[...]The house, at 12 East 69th Street, between Fifth and Madison Avenues, has seven bedrooms, six baths and three powder rooms.[...] 

With winter pending, the notion of going home to a showplace where the pampering begins on the sidewalk — both it and the exterior staircase are heated, as are the onyx floors in the foyers on the parlor level — could prove irresistible. Owning this house means never needing to hoist a snow shovel.
