Distinguished Prospect Heights Townhouse - Historic Elegance with Income-Producing Garden Rental
Built in 1883, this distinctive Neo-Grec townhouse exemplifies the fine craftsmanship of its era, offering a rare blend of historic authenticity and modern living. The property features a grand triplex residence positioned above a fully renovated garden-level apartment and an oversized, fully landscaped garden.
Original architectural details have been meticulously preserved throughout: black walnut pocket doors and staircase, decorative plasterwork, and six original slate fireplaces. The parlor level offers formal living as well as a kitchen that blends seamlessly with the historic architecture. A door from the dining area opens to the spacious deck and a private, park-like garden.
The upper floors feature four gracious bedrooms, a private dressing area, two full bathrooms with windows looking over the garden, a dedicated office and ample closets.
The garden apartment, with a private entrance and direct access to the backyard, offers turnkey functionality. It includes a bedroom and spacious living room with original fireplace and wainscoting, with separate galley kitchen and a washer/dryer.
The house also benefits from solar panels and a wireless irrigation system for the backyard.
