A newly constructed boutique rental building has launched leasing for its grand townhouse-style units. Located on the Upper East Side at 222 East 81st Street, the 6-story building has only three units; a triplex and a pair of duplexes. Listings are courtesy of Icon Realty Management and offer one month free or one month OP on 12-month leases.
The building's Garden Triplex is available for $32,000/month and has four large bedrooms, three full bathrooms and two half bathrooms, a home office and an adjoined private garage. The two duplex apartments are on either the third and fourth, or fifth and sixth floors. They each feature five bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, private keyed elevator entrances, private landscaped roof decks with full outdoor kitchens, and large open-concept living spaces. Both duplexes, Residence 3/4 and Residence 5/6, are priced at $30,000/month.
