This elegant and gracious townhouse is situated between Madison and Park Avenues on one of the loveliest tree lined blocks in the area. This particular house has distinctive charm and character as well as a thoughtfully practical layout. An immaculate façade is graced with high arched windows on the main entertaining floor which capture huge quantities of sunlight due to its southern exposure. This five story house has a generous and convenient Parlor floor. The front has a bright high ceilinged living room with wood burning fireplace opening on to a charming, wide landing with bookcases and a small sitting area. The rear of the house lends itself to the practical aspect for today's living with the dining room contiguous to a recently updated kitchen which has a greenhouse breakfast nook looking out over the garden. Each of the 6 bedrooms have pleasant exposures over either the townhouse gardens or sunny and south facing high over the tree lined street, including the master suite complete with a spacious, renovated bath and large walk in closet. A further useful element to this house is that upon entering the front door there is a vestibule that opens both to the main entrance hall of the house, or a door to the right accessing a fully autonomous ground floor property. It is currently configured as a 2 bedroom apartment for the house, but could also be used in part or in full as a doctor's office if one wanted an income producing aspect. The house has central heat throughout and central air conditioning units on the parlor floor and in the library. This house is certainly one of the most charming of its kind to enter the market in some time.
