Just one block from Central Park, this full-floor brownstone home has been completely gut-renovated, blending prewar charm with modern luxury.
Every detail has been thoughtfully curated, from the upgraded electrical system and new recessed lighting to the installation of custom chandeliers that add warmth and elegance to the space. The home features a large, private, and quiet garden terrace, a rare sanctuary in the city, where you can enjoy serene mornings, entertain guests, and even catch a glimpse of fireworks from Central Park. The terrace has been enhanced with newly planted perennial flowers, a drip irrigation systems, and electricity and water access.
Inside, the attention to detail is evident in every room. The living room is bright and inviting with soaring 10.5 foot ceilings, featuring new Marvin French doors and windows that allow natural light to flood the space. The fireplace has been upgraded with a chimney fan, and the walls have been treated with no-VOC lime wash. Throughout the home, you’ll find new Florette LVP non-toxic flooring, solid wood bedroom and bathroom doors, and custom molding, trim, and baseboards, all contributing to a refined and cohesive aesthetic.
Designed with both beauty and functionality in mind, the kitchen boasts quarter-sawn white oak cabinetry by Wood Harbour, Dolce Vita quartzite countertops, and high-end appliances, including a Wolf microwave/convection oven, Ilve 5-burner stove, and a Hydroviv kitchen water filtration system. Additional luxury details include a French plaster range hood, unlacquered brass pot filler, Franke sink kitchen disposal, and unlacquered brass hardware by Rejuvenation.
The home’s thoughtful renovation extends to the bathrooms, where Riad/Zellige tile adds texture and character. The primary bathroom features a custom Calacatta Verde marble sink, and a dedicated extra hot water heater has been installed for the tub, ensuring luxurious, uninterrupted comfort.
Modern conveniences elevate the home’s comfort, including a new A/C unit with Google Nest control, new radiators, and a Ring security system that protects the entire residence. A new Equator washer and electric dryer add to the home’s efficiency, making everyday living seamless and stress-free.
Located in a well-maintained 1884 brownstone, this home is steps from Lincoln Center, boutique shopping, fine dining, and multiple subway lines (1, 2, 3, B, C). Furniture is available separately.
