Bunny Mellon's NYC townhouse at 125 East 70th Street. See the Sotheby's real estate listing with numerous photos, both inside and out, here. Meet the buyer.
If he had been smarter (he could not have been richer) he would have negotiated to buy it furnished..."In situ" or bought it all at auction and put it back.. I think it could have been done.
What a perfect example of "understated elegance, perfect comfort, understatement....and quality....Lordy!
Perfection. Exquisite things in a comfortable, cozy home. That was her gift. 5 houses! All the same sense of understated elegance...each so perfectly suited to its surroundings....
I believe interior decorators should be studying her for the ages. Unfortunately; I find they all "know better"! "No, that is old lady" I will pray a lot.

Wow! That's quite the house. Did it sell furnished?
Linda Sand -- No, there was a separate auction for her possessions.
