Developed by Copanel, designed by Position Studio and Michael Chen, and represented by Fact Real Estate, this home measures 20 feet wide by over 50 feet deep on a 100-foot-deep lot, perfectly balancing historic elegance with modern craftsmanship. The townhouse welcomes you with a fully restored limestone facade and deep green fencing, a signature green theme that honors the building's historic cornice. Passing through the entry foyer, 2 custom double doors open into a bright, spacious vestibule finished with durable terrazzo tiles and dedicated entryway. The interior features custom white oak engineered floor planks throughout that can be sanded multiple times, alongside brand-new windows that flood the home with natural light. The design thoughtfully incorporates white Calacatta Monet marble with subtle green veining to reflect the exterior facade's historic color palette. The owner’s parlor duplex features impressive 9.5-foot ceilings on the parlor level and soaring 11.5-foot ceilings on the third floor. On the parlor level, the gourmet kitchen boasts Calacatta Monet marble countertops, a full backsplash, custom retro bone line millwork cabinetry, and a dedicated dry bar perfect for entertaining. The living room includes a brand-new marble fireplace, a generous pantry and storage closet, and seamless access out to a private deck overlooking the garden. Upstairs on the third floor, the king-sized primary suite offers a walk-in closet that can easily flex into a fourth bedroom, alongside a skylit five-fixture primary bathroom with custom millwork vanities and marble surfaces. Two additional king-sized bedrooms complete this upper level. The first-floor residence offers a spacious two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout featuring higher ceilings than typical neighborhood townhouses. It includes custom retro bone line millwork, durable Dekton countertops and backsplashes, brand-new bathrooms with custom oak millwork and fixtures, and its own private deck access. Downstairs, the finished basement provides a large open space ideal for a family den or media room, complete with a dedicated laundry room offering washer and dryer hookups. Both the front and rear outdoor spaces have been thoughtfully landscaped. The front yard is planted with four Otto Luyken laurels and a Japanese maple, framed by deep green fencing. The rear garden features four river birch trees and a centerpiece Japanese maple surrounded by clean gravel and supported by an automated watering system. This townhouse represents an exceptional buying opportunity, giving the future owner the choice to enjoy the entire property or rent out the first-floor home to offset their mortgage.
