This historic 4-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom residence, spanning 3,072 square feet offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to live in a piece of New York City’s cultural legacy.

The bright windowed breakfast kitchen boasts top-tier appliances and custom cabinetry, perfect for culinary enthusiasts. A large den/office overlooks a lovely patio/garden in the rear.

With four spacious bedrooms and 4.5 beautifully appointed bathrooms, the home offers ample space for relaxation and entertaining. Zoned heating and cooling systems ensure year-round comfort, while original architectural details—like five fireplaces, high ceilings and hardwood floors—add timeless charm.
