The brownstone featured as the home of Holly Golightly in
the famous film “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” has sold for $7.4 million after most
recently being listed for $8 million.
Any time there was a scene on the street the house was
featured.
The 1961 romantic comedy was filmed in studio for interior
shots but 169 E. 71st St. continues to gain interest as the place
Miss Holly Golightly made her debut in The Big City.
The house is a major tourist destination on the Upper East
Side. The 3,800-square-foot brownstone boasts four bedrooms, five bathrooms, a
sweeping staircase and an enclosed
greenhouse.
It is split into an upper and lower duplex. Upstairs, two
bedroom suits have their own renovated baths. There’s also a sunny living room with
a wood-burning fireplace, a renovated kitchen and laundry room. Downstairs, a
garden apartment with a separate entrance has a front library, powder room and
a large bedroom and full bath. The house was renovated in the mid 1980s and
then again in the ‘90s.
