Rug Designer’s Funky Murray Hill Townhouse Wants $6.2M | Waccabuc Real Estate

Loria Manne, who has designed her signature Lamontage rugs for such venerable institutions as Brown University, the University of Chicago, the Rubin Museum of Art, and the Gramercy Hotel, acquired this Murray Hill townhouse along with her husband in 2000 for $2.85 million. Now they have put it back on the market asking $6.195 million, though it appears that they made some improvements in the meantime—the house is still described on Streeteasy as a three-unit, four-story building, while the listing says that it is a six-story single-family home. The teal facade also looks fairly recent, as do all the colorful walls inside. Other highlights include the roof terrace, many fireplaces, and, of course, lots of rugs.
