54 East 64th Street, #TH (Brown Harris Stevens)
Reed Krakoff's celebrated fashion career includes executive positions at Coach and Tiffany & Co., and he has recently been named creative chairman at John Hardy. His wife, Delphine Krakoff, is principal of celebrated interior design firm Pamplemousse Design. The couple brought their sense of style to their Upper East Side townhouse, which looks much as it did when it was built by Flagg & Chambers in 1920, but has had its appliances, finishes, infrastructure brought up to 21st-century standards with a highly respectful nod to history. The interiors are filled with an impressive collection of art and furnishings. It is up the street from a townhouse formerly owned by Gianni Versace and a short distance from Madison Avenue's glitziest shopping.
In an interview with Town & Country, Ms. Krakoff said, "For us collecting is more about curating than accumulating...After we live with them for a few years, it's not that we don't love them anymore—we're ready to start creating something new." Perhaps that mindset prompted the couple to list the townhouse for $42 million in May 2022. But while a number of items from the townhouse went up for auction in June 2022, the house itself remains on the market. It recently had its price cut to $36,000,000.
The townhouse is one of 384 sales listings that experienced price reductions from September 14-20, 2022. A selection of notable listings may be found below.
