That’s The Money Mellon! Bunny’s Old Townhouse, Priced at $41M, Finds a Buyer
When Tony and Clare White bought Bunny Mellon's townhouse at 125 East 70th Street for $22.5 million in 2006—officially from an LLC named for Mellon's sprawling rural Virginia estate—one broker told us that she considered it "perfect for a Brit." Mr. White, a successful Irish businessman, thus seemed to more or less fit the profile. "The rooms weren't that large, but it had plenty of charm," the broker continued. “It has a European feel to it. For the average New Yorker that wants to make a splash—grand rooms, high ceilings—they don’t understand that setup.”
