HOUSE OF THE DAY: Banking Heiress Bunny Mellon's New York Townhouse Is In Contract For $41 Million

Welcome to 125 East 70th Street, Bunny Mellon's former home on the Upper East Side.

Let's step inside the home. The townhouse has 11,100 square feet and a total of 14 rooms.

It was designed in a French neoclassical style, and is basically decorated like a palace.

Every room has an incredible view of the serene garden space.

Some walls are painted a beautiful calming yellow.

While other rooms are painted in vibrant blues.

There are also gorgeous French doors that open to the garden space.

This terrace could easily host any extravagant party.

The townhouse has a total of eight bedrooms.

That are all incredibly well decorated.

The kitchen has pristine white countertops and plenty of natural light.

Paul Mellon was the heir to one of America’s great banking fortunes and filled his library with his extensive art collection.

The library also looks out to the garden, which creates a very calming space.

And finally, the gorgeous private garden itself.

It even features a lily pad speckled pond — quite a find in NYC.
