Everything a classic home should be and so much more, this pre-war beauty was built in 1941 and has been meticulously maintained and architecturally updated to provide its owners with the best of two worlds: a seamless mix of classic charm and modern convenience.
Located in Murray Hill, this home offers tremendous curb appeal with its solid brick exterior, arch-style front door, sloped-roof entry detail, and extensive hardscaping.
Other details begin in the entry with its wall of built-ins and the beginnings of all the enhanced trim and molding treatments highlighted throughout the home. Warm-toned, classic hardwoods flow throughout the large living room just past the entry and one of two home offices on the left.
The step-down living room features a gorgeous Federal-style fireplace and accent windows with crosshatch grills. This room flows under a large, curved arch to the formal dining room that features three, bow-style casement windows providing a wealth of natural light. A handsome set of pivot doors provide entry into this home’s custom kitchen and great room.
The kitchen is a great gathering spot with flow around its central island topped with dark granite and fitted with a cooktop and breakfast seating for two. Light wood cabinetry blends effortlessly with the room’s neutral tile floors, and an all-stainless-steel appliance package.
Hosts will have ample access to their guests in the adjoining great room. This engaging gathering space is highlighted with a curved wall of casement windows and offers access to the property’s beautifully envisioned hardscape and outdoor living area with courtyard, pond feature, and gardens.
The main level of the home also offers a lovely family room with custom built-ins.
Upstairs, the home’s primary suite is large, light, and bright. Warm hardwood floors continue here and lead into an exquisite owner’s bath with rustic, Tuscan appeal. Amber tile and granite vanity tops are balanced by all white cabinetry and the abundant natural light from a series of large windows lining the tub wall. A deep, jetted garden tub and a large, glass shower complete the relaxing spa-like experience.
This floor also features an additional bedroom for guests and an amazing home office with French doors opening to private, second floor deck overlooking the backyard and the property’s beautiful hardscaping.
A lower-level gym and an additional powder room complete the package for this “has-it-all” character home.
