Description

Exceptional opportunity to own a single family townhouse with the flexibility of a two family certificate of occupancy allowing for adaptable use of the garden floor. Carefully restored and renovated in 2013, the building's exterior was returned to its original glory while the interior was simultaneously updated for modern living by design firm Reddy Made Design Studio. The interior palette includes architectural glass for the staircase enclosures, recessed gallery-style lighting, and oak floors. The open layout and 10-ft. ceilings on the parlor floor create flexibility and currently accommodates a baby grand piano as well as living and dining areas. At the second floor, the master suite with its bathroom and terrace overlooks the backyard. And facing the front is an additional bedroom with beautifully restored window transoms and western townhouse views. On the third floor, two more bedrooms are separated by a Jack-and-Jill bath and a sky lit sitting area. The staircase has been fully built to the roof, enabling future owners the possibility of a roof deck or additional living space. The garden and parlor floors have direct access to the backyard, designed by urban garden specialists, Little Miracles Designs. The garden floor can be used as a family room with additional storage, bathroom, and kitchenette or as a separate apartment. The house is heated and cooled by a modern, multi-zone climate control system with forced water radiators and central air. Additional upgrades include a full security and Sonos sound system. Built in 1886, 134 Manhattan Avenue is one of the most distinctive and well preserved homes on the block and is one of the earliest surviving houses by master architect C. P. H. Gilbert, employing the rustic tones of the Romanesque Revival Style with stately Queen Anne accents and roof lines.
