An historic townhouse on the gold coast of Convent Avenue in Hamilton Heights. This beauty is 20 feet wide, 5 stories. Seldom do you see a townhouse with so much original detail intact. And, seldom do you see the original detail so painstakingly restored. Enter the Triple Parlor with floors of mahogany inlay, flawless walls, pocket doors, and 11 foot ceilings with decorative plaster work --absolutely stunning. The modern open kitchen, discretely placed, is abutted by a full pantry. Room after room, full of incredible woodwork - floors, mantles, moldings -- all accented by Wedgewood and Caldwell chandeliers, mirrors and sconces. Original marble counters, 4 decorative fireplaces, unusually large windows that look out into the front garden and the remarkable streetscape of Convent Ave. This house has loads of outdoor space -- enjoy a terrace off the third floor and a large deck off the fifth floor garret. While garret looks out onto charming rooftops, the roof deck looks out onto the Manhattan skyline. The large recreation room, brick with wide plank floors, leads out to a garden flanked by a wall of ivy and a magnolia tree. 5 large bedrooms, 6.5 bathrooms, almost 5,000 square feet. Air-conditioning, laundry room. This is truly a must see property.
