    Description
    ==========
    Situated on a gorgeous tree-lined block, this landmarked home features the perfect blend of old-world charm and ultra-modern finishes.
    Enter to discover a stunning kitchen, featuring sought-after amenities, including a spacious pantry and a full sliding glass NanaWall system that lends way to an immaculate private backyard. Stainless steel appliances such as a Bertazzoni gas range + hood, Bosch refrigerator, and Summit wine coolers will make cooking a breeze, while you’ll enjoy the delight of Caesarstone quartz countertops and an abundance of sleek custom cabinetry. A full bath and a massive bedroom complete this level.
    Venture to the parlor level, where beautiful bay windows at each end of the floor flood the area with natural light and illuminate the lustrous hardwood floors throughout. Here, you’ll find the great room, featuring several closets and a half bath. Glide through gorgeous pocket doors to discover an expansive living room, perfect for entertaining friends and family alike.
    Travel to the top two levels of this home and discover four bedroom suites, each with custom walk-in closets, en-suite baths, and decorative fireplace mantels. The primary bath stuns with an 11-foot-long double vanity and a breathtaking shower enclosure with a luxurious soaking tub. At the apex of this home, you’ll discover a separate office area and a washer + dryer for your convenience.
    A superior location leaves you surrounded by endless amounts of delectable dining options, such as Saraghina and Peaches Hot House, as well as convenient access to the A and C subway lines for easy travel around the surrounding area and beyond.

    Beautifully restored and tastefully updated! For those who would choose to have a dinner party at the parlor level, restoring the dumbwaiter would serve a good purpose. An elegant home for elegant living.

      Unlike some of these townhouses, there was almost room to have the kitchen in the rear. But it would have been a squeeze, and it would have destroyed the lovely period woodwork and windows. It's not ideal to ask your guests to trapse downstairs for dinner, but restorationwise, they made the right decision. As I have commented, it would be useful to restore the dumbwaiter so that food could be served at the parlor level.

      @@Bobrogers99 growing up in brownstones and townhouses I notice that the new trend (or old I guess depending) is that they turn the parlor level into the kitchen and the first level into an apartment. All my life the first level was kitchen, dining and living room spaces. I guess that’s why I just can’t ever imagine the parlor level being a kitchen. In fact the parlor level was and has always been my bedroom/master suite area in my home.

    This is a treasure! So many vintage homes are over-renovated and their original charm forever lost. I would have guessed c.1890-1900.

    I'm a bit late to the game, but after watching several of these videos; I must say, it's nice to see so much of the original detail in this townhouse. I've seen so many, having been 'modernized' to the point of 'this could be a suburban ranch inside'; lacking personality, for all the being new, and I imagine, expensive, remodels. This home maintains its respect for the architecture, that so many re-do's do not.
