About this property

Knock, knock, knock.  That’s opportunity at the front door!  With just some minor cosmetics, this Diamond in the Rough will transform into the Jewel in the Crown. It is freshly painted and buffed, but will feel like home with an updated kitchen and baths. No biggie: simply assemble your design dream team, unleash the potential and create your own customized show stopper that you will love for years as the current owner has.

Purchased decades ago, the owner fell in love with the history (it was built in 1919) and all the space – interior and exterior (19.83 ft x 94.83 ft lot and 19.8 ft x 42 ft building).  It offered privacy, as only a house can offer, and she recognized the upside potential of the neighborhood.

Lovingly cherished throughout the years, the owner customized the house to fit her needs.  It is currently configured as a studio apartment on the ground floor and a three-story, 4 bedroom 2.5 bathroom home above. There are charming details:  a classic front porch, an historic entryway and a grand staircase as you enter, a decorative fireplace, exposed brick in the living area that continues into the back dining room and adjacent kitchen. The layout is spacious and affords graciously proportioned rooms, especially upstairs  The oversized backyard boasts more than 860 private square feet. The home also features a stackable washer/dryer conveniently situated on the second floor.

In terms of neighborhood, there are amazing local restaurants and sights. Ft. Tryon Park is nearby, as is the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s scenic Cloisters. The house is close to Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center. And there are great transportation options including the express A subway, local 1 subway, express M98 and M4 bus lines, and easy highway access for quick escapes from The City. To top it off, the house is near great recreational activities like the public tennis courts and the bike path along The Hudson that goes all the way down to the Battery.

Time for another lucky buyer, YOU, to begin your own “happily ever after” by modernizing, customizing and then creating your own memories here.  Let the love story continue….
