    South-Facing Lenox Hill Townhouse with Private Elevator, Sunroom, and Flexible Mixed-Use Zoning Welcome to 197 East 76th Street — a sun-filled, south-facing townhouse offering an exceptional combination of elegance, space, and versatility in the heart of Lenox Hill. Spanning five stories with a private elevator, this beautifully maintained home features a rare sunroom and rooftop terrace, creating an ideal urban sanctuary. Currently configured as a mixed-use property, the ground floor hosts a high-end chocolate boutique with a separate street entrance, providing an excellent opportunity for income generation. The residential entry is discreetly positioned off-street and includes space for a bike or stroller. Live upstairs while collecting rent below, create a live-work setup, or easily convert the home to a single-family residence. The second floor boasts a gracious full-floor living room with a dramatic decorative fireplace, custom built-ins, a walk-in closet, and a powder room — perfect for entertaining. The third floor features a chef’s kitchen with a Viking range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher, and Miele washer/dryer. A pass-through opens into a refined dining room with a second decorative fireplace and four windows that flood the space with natural light. On the fourth floor, you'll find two well-proportioned bedrooms, a full bath, and a shared walk-in closet. The fifth floor is dedicated to the expansive primary suite, offering two walk-in closets and an en-suite bathroom with a double vanity. The crown jewel of the home is the top-floor sunroom, leading to a private rooftop terrace — an ideal spot for lounging or entertaining. This versatile space could also function as an additional bedroom suite, second living room, home office, or creative studio. The lower level includes a half-bath, mechanicals, and ample storage for the retail tenant. Additional highlights include: Approx. 2,400+ buildable square feet of unused FAR (consult your architect) Elevator access from floors two through six Flexible zoning and excellent live-work potential Prime Location: Nestled between Central Park and John Jay Park, this townhouse is surrounded by iconic Upper East Side destinations including The Carlyle, The Mark, and Madison Avenue boutiques. Just moments from the 6 and Q trains, M79 crosstown bus, and beloved neighborhood favorites like JG Melon, Seamore’s, Breads Bakery, and Van Leeuwen.
