The home that once belonged to banking mogul David Rockefeller is back on the market. Rockefeller and his wife, Peggy, owned the mansion from 1948 until his passing in 2017.

According to AD, the 1924-built red brick structure sellers are Doug Band, former advisor to Bill Clinton, and his wife, Lily Band. The couple bought the stately 40-foot-wide house in 2018 for $20 million. The changes they made to the townhouse were a two-foot increase to the garden-level ceilings and a top-floor basketball court stretching 17 feet tall and complete with a 220-inch movie screen.
And the features don’t stop there.
Across the property, you’d find eight bedrooms, a yellow wallpapered drawing room, a living room with original knotted wood paneling, a chic mirrored dining room, three kitchens (one for family, two for service, united by dumbwaiter), a sports simulator, a sauna, and a skylit spiral staircase.
“Thoughtful considerations include a modernized, high-speed elevator that services all five floors; brand new, top-of-the-line A/V, mechanical and HVAC systems; and two dedicated staff rooms, each with a full bathroom,” adds the listing, which Adam Modlin of Modlin Group holds.
For just $57.5 million, you can get all of this, including 12 bathrooms, an additional 3,500 square feet of outdoor space distributed between front and backyard gardens, a first-floor terrace, and a rooftop patio decked out with a fire pit and an elevator connecting all five floors of the property.
Speaking of Rockefeller, Rockefeller Center will transform into a public tennis court next week!
