The real estate listing for 53 W. 71st St., located just west of Central Park, comes with an asking price of $9.6 million.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The five-bed, six-bath single-family townhouse features an abundance of natural light through tall windows, offering \u201ca rare convergence of architectural rigor, environmental performance, and refined luxury,\u201d per the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zillow.com\/homedetails\/53-W-71st-St-New-York-NY-10023\/2077440279_zpid\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">listing description<\/a>. Along with 1,400 square feet of private outdoor space, an elevator serving all five stories, an indoor gym, and a \u201cstate-of-the-art ventilation system that continuously circulates tempered fresh air throughout the home,\u201d the brownstone includes a glassed-in roof deck. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The property\u2019s annual tax bill is $94,344, the listing agents at Corcoran detail. Corcoran is the real estate group founded by \u201cShark Tank\u201d personality Barbara Corcoran.<\/p>\n<p>Stanley Willers Bio<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Stanley Ho Willers was born to Angela Ho, the eldest daughter of the late casino magnate\u2019s 17 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/macau-casino-heir-mario-ho-denies-affair-with-half-sister\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">children<\/a>, and her husband at the time, Uwe Willers. Angela was born to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.casino.org\/news\/stanley-hos-hong-kong-mansion-goes-on-sale-for-383m\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Stanley Ho\u2019s<\/a> first wife, Clementina Leitao.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Little is known about Uwe Willers. Angela later divorced him and married Peter Kjaer, a Danish artist and businessman. Together, they opened a ballet school in Hong Kong and formerly owned an art gallery in New York City. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Stanley Willers has used his vast inheritance for his own business endeavors, primarily Ho Gaming.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Founded in 2006, the Malta-based business-to-business iGaming firm provides live dealer and software management services to online casinos operating across Asia. Ho Gaming\u2019s live dealer table game streams include blackjack, roulette, baccarat, and sic bo.<\/p>\n<p>NYC Property\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Willers\u2019 mother bought the property at 53 W. 71st in November 2012 for $5.99 million. After acquiring the brownstone, the real estate listing says the home underwent a multiyear renovation by Ingui Architecture. The multimillion-dollar overhaul, the home details suggest, resulted in a \u201cresidence of exceptional flow, continuity, and technical sophistication.\u201d Ho later gifted the brownstone to her son.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The property is certified as a Passive House, a recognition for properties that meet energy performance standards as defined by the Passive House Institute US.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cBuildings certified to Passive House standards reliably provide a reduction in energy needed for heating and cooling of up to 90%, and up to 75% reduction in overall energy use, compared to existing buildings,\u201d the NYC Housing Preservation &amp; Development website explains.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Posted on: February 3, 2026, 01:07h.\u00a0 Last updated on: February 2, 2026, 01:17h.
