11 Gramercy Park S #ONE

At Number 11 we have a fine example of Anglo-Italianate design built in 1855. The facade of this grand home features a continuous upward progression of defined and elegant masonry from the mid-nineteenth century. Standing 27' wide, this triplex townhouse has been beautifully maintained as a portrait of elegance designed with style and sophistication. Enter through a gracious foyer flanked by a rich wood paneled library and an extra-large, eat-in chef's kitchen. A private south-facing patio and garden offers a quiet retreat. Ascend the grand staircase to the parlor level and find a breathtaking living room wrapped in Louis XIV paneling with soaring 14' ceilings, wood burning fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the park. The dramatic full service dining room comes complete with another wood burning fireplace, butler's pantry and garden views. The primary suite features a dressing area/walk-in closet, small sitting area to enjoy the park views and a sumptuous master bath with dual sinks, separate soaking tub and stall shower. A living room, two additional bedrooms with garden views, additional closest space and another full bath complete the third floor. A Crestron security system, vented laundry room, gym, cellar and ample storage add to the conveniences of this home. This special home is located in the elite enclave of the Gramercy Park Historic District - a unique area in the midst of New York City. Standing serene and coherent, the district reflects the quietness of a park ? and also of another century. The neighborhood has resisted, to a remarkable degree, changes that could have destroyed it - keeping its original beauty. Unlike any other district in New York, Gramercy Park, has always remained a fashionable residential neighborhood. On the periphery of this protected community, a busy industrial and commercial area of tall buildings looms up on the skyline featuring the city's finest restaurants, shops and transportation. Available Furnished and Unfurnished for the same price.
