If you’re a SATC fan, you’ve probably wondered what it would be like to live in Carrie Bradshaw’s Upper East Side apartment in the iconic Manhattan brownstone on Sex and the City. Or perhaps you’ve imagined yourself mingling with the stylish characters of Gossip Girl in their luxurious Upper East Side apartments. And who could forget the timeless elegance of Audrey Hepburn’s stylish townhouse apartment in the classic 1961 film Breakfast at Tiffany’s?

A stay at the 1871 House, offers guests the chance to bring these dreams to life. The historic Manhattan brownstone, located at 130 East 62nd Street, was designed by the esteemed architect John Sexton in the Italianate style, just like the famous brownstone featured in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Stepping through our doors, guests will be transported to a bygone era, surrounded by the charm and elegance of old New York City.

Tucked away on a quiet Lenox Hill block, 130 East 62nd Street is one of several surviving Italianate style row houses on East 62nd Street between Park and Lexington Avenues. The five-story house was originally one of a row of four brownstone houses (nos. 126-132) constructed in 1871 for builder John McCool. Although most of its original ornament remains, the house has been altered by the removal of its stoop in 1912. The house is significant not only for its architectural merit but its location in the coveted landmarked Upper East Side Historic District.  East 62nd Street between Park and Lexington Avenues is one of the few blocks in the historic district to retain a substantial number of row-houses from the early period of Upper East Side development.  The classic townhome is perfectly situated on one of the most beautiful tree-lined blocks and home to numerous classic brownstone townhomes, grand mansions and luxury prewar apartment buildings as well as convenient to extensive shopping and dining options of the neighborhood.
