Description
Sun-filled interiors boast gorgeous eastern and western exposures and multiple skylights,...This thoughtfully gut-renovated brownstone combines high-end finishes and modern technology with utter reverence to the home's historic origins. Currently configured with a four-bedroom owner's triplex and garden duplex, this home is ideal for investors or buyers seeking additional rental income or multigenerational living quarters or the opportunity to restore the townhouse to its original single-family grandeur.
Sun-filled interiors boast gorgeous eastern and western exposures and multiple skylights, soaring ceilings and four-inch white oak floors. Bathrooms throughout the homes boast superb tile and contemporary fixtures. Designer lighting and handsome millwork add an air of sophistication, while wide art walls offer plenty of room for your prized collection.
A classic foyer with carved entry doors and tile floors welcomes you into the owner's triplex. Relax in front of a handsome decorative fireplace in the gorgeous living room, or head to the rear of the parlor floor to host spectacular gatherings in the lavish dining room. In between, the open chef's kitchen dazzles with a bold marble island/breakfast bar, sleek cabinetry and a fleet of Thor and LG stainless steel appliances, including a vented gas range, French door refrigerator, built-in microwave, wall oven, wine fridge and dishwasher. A powder room adds convenience to this inviting entertaining level.
The restored original staircase is flanked by exposed brick and topped by a skylight, creating the perfect path to the home's four luxurious bedrooms. The second floor includes a front-facing suite with lovely eastern light. Two west-facing bedrooms share a large hall bathroom, and a laundry closet offers a stacked washer-dryer. On the top floor, the skylit owner's retreat invites you to linger with a king-size bedroom, a private home office and an exceptional skylit walk-in closet awaiting your customizations. The en suite bathroom is a work of art pairing rustic exposed brick with fantastic designer tile, a freestanding soaking tub, frameless glass rain shower and a wide double vanity, all punctuated by dramatic black matte fixtures.
In the well-appointed two-bedroom, one-bathroom garden duplex, you'll find an open-plan living/dining area and a top-notch galley kitchen with lacquer cabinetry and stainless steel appliances. Two bedrooms share a full bathroom, and one opens to the gorgeous fenced yard. Below, the full-height cellar level charms with painted brick archways and an expansive footprint for a home gym, playroom and storage, plus washer-dryer hookups.
This extraordinary two-family home conveys with plans to add a spectacular deck and garden access to the rear of the owner's parlor floor.
