Description

20 feet wide and gushing with light a handsome Center Slope Brownstone immaculately redefined. Hints of century-old charm meld seamlessly throughout, while the entire parlor floor has been sculpted to render a completely open living area. There's a half bath, an office nook and the original marble WBFP accented with a Moroccan tile hearth. The luxury designed kitchen by GeD Cucine is any sociable cook's fantasy packed with features such as CaesarStone counters, a vented Miele range and a breakfast bar. A floor-to-ceiling glass door invites us all out to the Ipe wood deck, its mahogany railing and the slate steps lead us down to the lush green garden. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms plus a den and a beautifully renovated bath. All baths feature Toto toilets, Duravit sinks and Robern cabinets. On the garden level, the generous entertainment room warms things up with another WBFP. The ensuite primary bedroom, with walk-in closet, has a floor-to-ceiling glass door leading to the garden. The entire house is completely renovated and the improvements go far deeper than the cosmetics, including central air conditioning throughout. Each detail has been fashioned to complement the other. The quality of finishes and understated refinements are perfect complements to a living space that must be experienced. And, you are just a half-block from the trendy bustle of 5th Avenue.
