About This Home
As of September 2014DESCRIPTION
Own this lovingly-restored townhouse and enjoy luxury living in the heart of the Upper West Side. From the Queen Anne facade to the newly-landscaped garden, this townhouse marries contemporary chic with traditional elegance. High ceilings, excellent sunlight, hardwood floors, custom cabinetry, built-in bookshelves, and decorative fireplaces brighten this home throughout. Kitchens and baths have been stylishly renovated. Upstairs, enjoy five bedrooms with plenty of walk-in closets.
The garden level is currently a renovated two bedroom apartment with no garden access. Live in the five-bedroom owner?s unit and let the rental income pay your expenses. Alternatively, create an easy single-family home on a tree-lined, townhouse block.
LAYOUT
Garden Level:
This renovated, two-bedroom apartment has a separate entrance and hardwood floors throughout. The front dining area has original shutters and a pass-through to the updated kitchen. Two bedrooms overlook the garden. A full bath is nearby. This entire apartment receives excellent light. This is easily combined with the owner?s unit ? simply create an opening at the bottom of the existing interior staircase and you have a single-family home.
Parlour Level:
Up the stoop you enter the piano nobile. The front entry has a marble foyer, hardwood floors and an original bench mirror. The renovated kitchen includes top-of-the-line appliances, like Gaggenau ovens and stovetop, SubZero refrigerator, and Miele dishwasher. Cream-colored cabinetry and high ceilings brighten the nearby breakfast nook and wraparound bench. The formal dining area features painted original woodwork, plus a recessed ceiling with ornamental beading. The rear parlor is a sunny, gracious entertaining area. Details include a decorative fireplace with slate hearth, and a full-height pier mirror between original floor-to-ceiling windows. A pretty powder room is nearby.
Exit to the rear garden and enjoy the delicious scent of boxwood and hydrangea. The spacious dining patio is perfect for barbecues, while raised beds afford space for you to exercise your green thumb.
Third Floor:
In the front library, built-in bookshelves flank the decorative fireplace. High ceilings continue throughout this level, along with original white-painted moldings and shutters. The master bedroom enjoys the quiet and sunlight of the rear garden. This full-width room has a decorative fireplace and hardwood floors. In a separate dressing area, his-and-her closets lead to the renovated master bath. A clawfoot tub, glass shower and pedestal sink complete the tasteful renovation.
Fourth Floor:
The front two bedrooms both have hardwood floors and walk-in closets. The larger bedroom also features built-in bookshelves, a decorative fireplace, and original shutters. Soaring ceilings and streaming sunlight continue throughout this level.
