A
Manhattan mansion has hit the rental market, boasting opulent features and a hefty price tag of $175,000 per month. The property, located at 4 E. 64th St., was initially listed for $150,000 in April but received a price bump after the FARE Act banned landlords from passing broker fees onto renters.

    The Gilded Age home spans over 18,000 square feet and features eight bedrooms, seven bathrooms, and three powder rooms. Built by architect R.H. Robertson in 1893, it has undergone a significant renovation to maintain its original character while incorporating modern amenities.

    The mansion boasts custom millwork, seven fireplaces, and an eat-in kitchen with stone-lined sunrooms. Its 1,500 square feet of private outdoor space includes a balcony, garden, and roof deck. The property's unique features make it a rare find in the city's rental market.

    Listing agent Carrie Chiang notes that the price increase was due to the FARE Act, which has led some landlords to build broker fees into rents. Despite its high price point, the mansion remains a sought-after property among deep-pocketed renters. However, the identity of the potential renter remains unknown, as they are likely to be a high-net-worth individual or a family with significant financial resources.
