From the parquet floors and original woodwork to Farrow & Ball paint and Kohler fixtures, the attention to detail can be found throughout this well-appointed home.
As you enter on the parlor floor, you are greeted by a beautiful foyer with an oversized half-glass original entry door. Stepping into a parlor floor, you realize the breadth of space as the 10-foot ceilings let the light radiate throughout the space. The beautiful pine floors throughout this floor have been restored with great care.

The kitchen has high-end Canadian hardwood floors and features an island, custom cabinetry, and quartz countertops as well as a farmhouse sink and a full complement of appliances including a stainless steel refrigerator, Verona five-burner 36" stove, and Fisher Paykal double-decker dishwasher. This eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream.
Upstairs, on the top floor, there are three bedrooms and a large full bathroom. The elegant primary bedroom faces the treelined street and features two windows, a dressing area, and a large closet space. A second large bedroom faces the serene backyard and is adjacent to a four-fixture bathroom. The bathroom is adorned with marble tiled floors, a tasteful double vanity, a glass-enclosed rain shower, and a deep-soaking tub. Additionally, there is a smaller bedroom in the front of the house and a large alcove with custom closet space that can serve as a second office area or media space.
This masterfully re-imagined townhouse is located on a beautiful, tree-lined street in the heart of Stuyvesant Heights. You are moments away from great dining establishments such as L'Antagoniste, Chez Oskar, The Wilky, Saraghina, and Peaches as well as three local parks that feature playgrounds, basketball and tennis courts. Nearby public transportation includes the A/C & J trains or the Halsey B26, and JFK is a short 20-minute drive.
