Are these one of those places that require you to have social status to live in them? I dream about lving in such luxury places, but I feel like I won't fit in and the people in the neighborhood will force me out.
no this is individual house, you are referring to coops, which are generally apartments.The one similarity is their age, detailing, room sized. Ppl cannot force you out of a neighbourhood in this day and age..
i dont think so.The people who live on the UES are very classy( in general), and because they are wealthy-and own mutiple homes they arent always there to make it a pain....
Incredible home and presentation with the exception of the BACKGROUND MUSIC!! Next time consider using elegant music to go with such an elegant mansion.
@@riverafranzjethrod.5272- But anyone willing to pay $50 million can buy another place where the kitchen isn't in a crawl space and all the modern amenities nearby.
@@GaelinW well for that one i will say that new york is a very expensive place to find a nice home and it depends which part of new york ( manhattan , 5th avenue etc ) and aome people are willing to pay 50 mil in a property because of its historical reference , previous owners , the localtion itself and ofcourse as you said the ammenities of the peoperty.
Jethro Dacanay - Indeed people are willing to pay $50 million for a place in NY, just not this place. Given that this sold for almost $10 million less than the asking price more than 2 yrs later.
I love the outside of this beautiful building! Stairs galore, with no elevator and no kitchen on the main floor! One should not have to pay 40Mil., without the luxuries of a pool nor; kitchen on the main floor, without a private secured entrance! But, in the 1890's safety was so important! That basement kitchen may have been a bomb shelter!
When the house was first built, kitchens were not considered living spaces. People wealthy enough to afford a house like this might have never even stepped foot in their own kitchen, as it was common to have servants at that time.
that is art, they do not build houses like that anymore, the craftsmanship and location are long gone

brilliant response !
Barely saw the house. Spent too much time on minute details. Show me the rooms! Wtf??

Amazing, Exclusive and Unique
Terribly short!!! Come on - huge home like that and you showed what? Two, maybe three rooms?!!!
Gorgeous house, but you'd think they would have painted that rusted wrought iron around the juliette balcony.
all the wrought iron work needs a complete restoration
Absolutely Stunning!
Wow it’s gorgeous and decorated with elegance. Just Beautiful 😍
Too short for details
This is my great great grandfather's home, Clarence Whitman!
Beautiful, history matters.
Would have liked to see more, but very nice.
18 years before the Titanic sank.
Mr sheffields house!!!
Just WoW!!!
Aaaiiii karammmba !!!
50M !!!!
no elevator?
18 years before the Titanic. I doubt they had Elevators and they would not be putting them in anytime soon.

A grand house! But not worth $50 million, $35 million maybe. Good luck!
Feline Queen yes i know but the expensive part of that house was the location and location is a big turning point of a porperty
Well, it sold after 2 yrs for $41.5 million.

@@jimbo1637 That is true! They all just sat on the Dinning room, rang a bell and the servants brought in the food!
Mmm the rest of the home must be a disaster cause they didn’t show it.
But who needs 9 bedrooms?
When it was built, people not only had lots of kids but multiple generations lived in one house.
$40,000,000
And that's a conservative guess.
Whoever chose the music for this video has zero taste. I could not watch it to the end.
Kitchen is a disaster
I agree! Who would want to go down a trap door in the floor, of a closet; to get to the kitchen? Gees!!
