Property Details
Description
Premier Brownstone Offering in Sunset Park. 454 56th Street is a classic 2-family townhome, configured as an owner's garden & parlor duplex and floor-through rental above. The entry hall (at street level) leads to the living room with bay window and stunning decorative fireplace, home office area, and gorgeous fully updated kitchen (Liebhher refrigerator, G.E. profile gas range, Bosch dishwasher) that opens onto the formal dining room. There is a bathroom with original stained glass, plus a bonus room off the kitchen leading to the south-facing backyard, with windows on three exposures. Makes a wonderful kids' playroom, home gym or library. (Full size Whirlpool Duet washer/dryer are located here as well!) The parlor floor, with 10' tall ceilings, features three bedrooms and another full bath - with a custom spa-inspired renovation including step-in shower. The master bedroom offers a tremendous dressing room / walk-in closet with storage beyond your wildest dreams. Finally, the top-floor offers a bright & spacious 2 bedroom / 1 bathroom rental unit with formal dining room in move-in condition.Built in the 1890's, this home is one of the most intact brownstones to be offered for sale in the neighborhood in many years, as evidenced by the remarkable original details such as carved wood railings, wainscoting, exquisite wood moldings and doors, plasterwork, tin ceilings and parquet floors. The many upgrades, including ample custom built-ins and closets, make this home fitting for today's lifestyle, and as an extra benefit you'll find not only the first-floor extension but a bone-dry, full walk-out basement. This lovely house is located on a beautiful tree-lined street with well-kept brownstones & brick townhomes from one end of the block to the other. Transportation is a breeze with the N express stop at 59th Street. The property will be delivered vacant. Exclusively listed by The Corcoran Group.
