Boasting approximately 5,300 square feet of interior space and nearly 1,000 square feet of lush bucolic gardens and terraces, this 4-6 bedroom red brick beauty is located on a tree lined block in the heart of Gramercy.
While recently renovated and modernized, original details such as gorgeous crown moldings, custom woodwork, pine flooring and a grand staircase were carefully preserved throughout the 5-level home.
The main entrance opens to the parlor level which is dedicated entirely to entertaining. A sprawling great room with soaring ceilings boasts two fireplaces with antique cararra white marble mantles and plenty of space for various living/dining layouts. The completely updated open kitchen offers a beautiful island with counter seating, custom cabinetry with nickel fixtures and top of the line-appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, Wolf double oven and vented 5-burner Viking range. Glass doors open to your terrace with stairs leading down to the garden. A magnificent power room features remarkable Farrow and Ball lovebird wallpaper, gold leafed ceiling, with custom sink and fixtures manufactured by Drummonds.
Up the grand staircase, carpeted by ABC Home, you are greeted by a lovely, inviting library. Custom bookcases line the room and are centered by a stunning fireplace with black, Nero Porto marble mantle with gold veins. Additionally, there is a cedar closet for your woolens and another which houses the security system servicing the residence. The back of this level is dedicated to the primary suite, which features a second fireplace with Nero Porto marble mantle, a large walk-in closet, an adjoining dressing room outfitted with mirrored closets and a wall of floor-to-ceiling glass doors. A planted Juliet balcony oversees the garden. The luxurious primary bathroom includes radiant-heated cararra marble floors, heated towel rack, nickel fixtures, soaking tub, oversized vanity, Robern lighted medicine cabinet and a large shower with multiple shower heads. A powder room and separate windowed office/nursery/den with closet complete this floor.
The top floor features 3 bedrooms, a windowed bathroom with dual vanities a tub and a laundry room with custom maple cabinetry. The 2 larger bedrooms each include walk-in closets and skylights. A splendid south facing terrace finishes off the storey.
On the ground floor, past the cherry tree garden and blue stone patio, you will find a garden apartment with an extensive kitchen (it once serviced the entire residence) with double Viking oven and vented 6-burner range, a dumb waiter which connects to the parlor level of the main house and double glass doors to the bricked english garden. The bedroom boasts a very large walk-in closet, an alcove suitable for an office (though currently used for an art studio) and another door to the garden. This serene outdoor oasis boasts a 200 year old "tree of heaven" (ailanthus altissima) and an impressive hydrangia tree. The unit is connected to the main home via a second set of stairs.
The full height cellar contains a large tiled laundry room with two LG washers with steam and a dryer. Mechanical and storage are located here as well.
This entire home features an updated HVAC system with central heating and cooling, monitored security system, custom shades, curtains and Lutron lighting system throughout. There are a total of 6 fireplaces, 5 of which are eco-fuel and 1 gas.
The silence of the home, the breeze through the trees, the cardinals, blue birds and morning doves calling to one another, will make it hard to believe you are in New York City.
