This four bedroom, four and a half bathroom landmarked townhouse was built in 1893 featuring a beautiful limestone facade, distinct interior wood elements and stained glass skylights. Throughout the years, the house has gone through the process of wear, tear, paint and multiple owners. The goal of the renovation was to bring it back to its original luster with some traditional upgrades. The front facade was cleared of a century worth of grime and soot. Inside the house, all of paint from the existing wood elements was stripped off and stained. All of the wood flooring were replaced to match the original narrow oak with a diagonally laid field inside the border pattern with a mahogany inlay at the habitable rooms and parquet flooring pattern in the hallways. The kitchen and bathrooms underwent the largest renovations. The new kitchen includes custom built inset cabinets with traditional profiles and crown molding alongside stainless steel appliances. All the bathrooms were fitted with subway wall tiles and inch floor tiles accompanied by traditional fixtures and custom inset vanities. The master bathroom also had the added touch of a claw foot tub. To top it all off, the basement was converted to a recreation room with a kitchenette, two laundry spaces were added, traditional light fixtures by local designers were installed, the rear was landscaped and terrace was added with views of the Manhattan Financial District skyline.
