Sun-drenched and elegant, this grand 4-story plus finished cellar single-family brownstone combines the scale, elegance and grandeur of turn-of-the-20th century architecture with modern comforts, amenities and design. Built in 1899, this 18? foot wide home was custom-designed to maximize extraordinary light, detail and scale throughout. This luxurious home additionally offers much-coveted private outdoor space, including a beautiful, newly decked garden, a terrace on the top floor and a new roof. In addition, the ground floor is easily sectioned-off securely, and can be used as a legal, income-generating large one-bedroom apartment, with separate entrance.
