A restored Manhattan townhouse less than one block from Central Park is for sale for $ 79.5 million.

The Upper East Side mansion boasts 14,700 square feet of living space, equal parts whimsy and luxury, and includes a rooftop terrace and basement level gym and spa.

Owner Keith Rubenstein, a New York City real-estate developer, originally listed the property in early 2016 for $ 84.5 million after years of extensive renovation. Douglas Elliman now holds the listing.
