A historical neo-Italian Renaissance carriage house built in 1910 and later transformed<\/a> into a spectacular residence by former Morgan Stanley CEO John Mack and his wife, Christy, has just hit the market in Manhattan for an astonishing $80 million.<\/p>\n

The Upper East Side estate once served as a garage and chauffeur’s quarters for Singer heir Stephen C. Clark and was later used by Paul and Bunny Mellon as a private garage. The Macks purchased the 15,978-square-foot structure for $13.5 million in 2009 and transformed it into a 20-room residence in 2011.<\/p>\n

A “no-expense-spared renovation” now features quarter-sawn oak floors, custom wallpapers, bespoke drapery and fabrics, and designer lighting. The lavish residence has climbed its way to the top spot on the week’s most expensive homes list<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Luxurious amenities include security and staff offices, a 13-seat soundproof theater, a one-car garage doubling as entertainment space, private guest quarters with a full kitchen, and a chef’s kitchen with walk-out dining terrace.<\/p>\n

Other highlights include six fireplaces, a wood-paneled library, a primary suite with dual dressing rooms and marble baths, two soundproof offices, a 6,319-bottle wine cellar with prep kitchen, and a rooftop terrace to enjoy the city views.<\/p>\n

Wellness amenities on the lower level offer a cold plunge, steam room, sauna, massage room, and a full gym.<\/p>\n

More spectacular estates to make the week’s most expensive homes list include a brand-new mansion on Nantucket, MA<\/a>, a 48.2-acre Greenwich, CT,<\/a> estate, and a recently built Washington residence overlooking Lake Washington<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Price: $41,500,000<\/p>\n

La Reve: This seven-bedroom mansion was sold in 2019 to an undisclosed buyer for $9,500,000, roughly half its original asking price of $18,400,000. The seller, James Fifield<\/a>, is the former president of EMI Music and The North Face.<\/p>\n

Now listed for more than four times that sale price, the 13,919-square-foot “highly curated” residence originally hit the market for $60 million in September 2025. The 15.14-acre property atop Buttermilk Mountain is a legacy estate designed by Uruguayan architect Horacio Ravazzani “in his only North American engagement,” according to the listing. Bespoke details include African iroko wood, a 35-foot glass solarium inspired by the Louvre, a central corridor creating a gallery-inspired art setting, and a primary suite with two marble soaking tubs.<\/p>\n

The property features direct access to trails for skiing or hiking.<\/p>\n

Redevelopment opportunity: This 1.35-acre property was purchased<\/a> for $23,800,000 in December 2024 by Israeli billionaire Teddy Sagi, who planned to tear down the existing mansion and build a new 20,000-square-foot mansion.<\/p>\n

According to the listing, his new development never came to fruition, as “the existing residence remains on the property.” Sagi does, however, have approved plans for a 25,000-square-foot estate, which are included with the sale. The proposed design features nine en suite bedrooms, a guesthouse, separate staff accommodations, and an eight-car garage. Lavish planned amenities include an infinity pool, a hot tub, a fitness center, a spa, saunas, a screening room, a sport court, and a rooftop lounge.
