926 Saint Marks Avenue is a lovingly restored Romanesque Revival townhouse that combines historic grandeur with thoughtful, architect-designed updates. The home offers oversized bedrooms with ensuite baths, fireplaces, abundant natural light, and a flexible layout perfect for modern living. With its landscaped gardens, tasteful updates, and publication worthy design, this is a residence equally suited to hosting dinner parties as it is to quiet everyday life.

Built in 1901 by architect Albert E. White, this four-story residence is currently configured as an upper triplex above a spacious one-bedroom garden apartment. Spanning over 4,000 square feet on a 20 105 ft. lot, the triplex features four bedrooms, three full baths, and a powder room; the garden unit offers additional income potential or seamless reintegration via an interior stairwell. An unfinished cellar provides extensive storage with full ceiling height.

A gated, landscaped front yard and classic dog-legged stoop welcome you inside, where 10-foot ceilings highlight preserved details: fretwork spandrels, hardwood floors, wainscoting, crown moldings, and original mantel mirrors. The entryway is anchored by a striking pier mirror, while the living room centers around an original fireplace mantel-both hallmarks of the home's historic craftsmanship. Pocket doors glide between parlor rooms, adding both elegance and function.

The formal dining room with built-in storage flows into a renovated chef's kitchen with Carrera marble countertops, a central island, custom cabinetry and full-size stainless appliances from Bosch and Kitchenaid. From here, step onto the deck and down into a lush, irrigated garden-designed by a landscape architect and featured, along with the home, in Domino Magazine. With space for summer barbecues or evening gatherings, the backyard offers a private outdoor retreat.

Upstairs, the second floor holds two oversized bedrooms with ensuite baths, including a king-sized primary with stained glass, pocket shutters, and a mirrored fireplace mantel. The top floor, brightened by multiple skylights with exposures front and back, is configured as a south-facing home office in one room and a guest quarters with ensuite bath. Both rooms are king-sized, filled with natural light, and flexible in use-while one offers glimpses of the Empire State Building.

The one-bedroom garden apartment still has its prewar charm but has been updated with in-unit laundry, dishwasher, and refreshed kitchen and bath. It has delivered strong, consistent rental income.The owners have created a turnkey home that preserves original detail while enhancing comfort.

Updates to this home include redone front and rear facades, updated mechanicals, modern baths with Kohler fixtures, and landscaped, irrigated yards front and back.
