515 W 152ND Street

An exquisite townhouse, that rare bird which is renovated to perfection and worthy of pictures, but don't take my word for it, make an appointment and judge for yourself. Four full stories plus finished basement, a legal two-family residence with the ground floor as a separate entity including its own washer-dryer (unless you want to capture all four floors for your extended group), while the rest of the home (meaning the upper three floors) retain everything a large group needs and wants. Due to its excessive depth, the first floor of the triplex (or parlor floor) easily accommodates an oversized contemporary chef's kitchen and seating for twelve or as little as needed since the table extends easily when company arrives. Stairs lead down to the full garden area from the kitchen as well as an exit from the ground floor depending upon one's purpose. The garden itself has lovely plantings and can accommodate large gatherings. The living room welcomes guests with a uniquely oversized marble-walled gas fireplace on one side, a spectacular Dutch Masters reproduction opposite the bountiful seating areas and features a 3 sided bay window. Upstairs two floors have four sumptuous bedrooms and luxurious baths with dressing areas and built-in closets, while the top floor also retains the townhouse's second (large) washer and dryer, bathed in natural light from two central skylights, one of which opens at will, plus a 2nd uniquely working fireplace in the master bedroom. The basement was legally excavated and semi-finished with poured concrete floors, allowing for a multitude of usages given its full-length size and ceiling height. Midway between the expansive City College and Columbia University campuses, Hamilton Grange and Hispanic Museum/Library, and the renowned New York Presbyterian Hospital complex. Riverside Park, subways, buses and myriad of retail options should whet all appetites. We look forward hearing from you soon.
